A great preventative measure for active people, treatments combat deep-stored tension & ease niggles.  

Sports Therapy can be called on at times of high physical demand for performance preparation, enhancement or recovery. 

Injuries may occur from our daily activities, such as hip-carrying small children, or repetitive movements associated with our work, (as well as through sport or accident), thus making sports massage therapy relevant to everyone.

"Kirsty helped me recover from a knee injury a year ago, and since then we have kept on top of our treatments in order to prevent anything else getting in the way of my running !  My sessions with her really seem to help." Martyn, runner.
