Hi Everybody!
Some of you will know that just before coronavirus hit I was due to start seeing clients again , in fact some of you were already booked in! I was really excited about being able to get back to work but my plans were scuppered!
I know, everyone’s plans were scuppered!

I’ve been shielding from the middle of March but have now been given an initial “parole” date of 01st August. Fingers crossed 🤞

The next hurdle is to get the go ahead from The Government and my Sports massage and Therapy governing bodies to start seeing clients again.
Then of course there will be the issue of how to make a service such as massage covid compliant.
I expect things to be very different and I know I’m going to have to change a lot of things to keep both you and I safe when I do start work again but one thing I’m sure we can all agree on , having been deprived of “The Human touch” to some degree over the last few months, it’s power cannot be underestimated!

I’ll keep you posted with what’s happening and hopefully see you all soon.

Take care.
Kate.

Dear all.
Due to a recent diagnosis in relation to my health, I’m afraid I am not able to take on any new clients at the moment.
As soon as I am back to full strength I hope to welcome back my current clients along with lots of new ones!
Apologies for any inconvenience
Regards
Katrine.

Some exciting news!

I am now able to offer Oncology massage, having completed an industry recognised qualification.

If you know anybody that is being treated for or had a history of cancer please let them know I’m now able to offer this service.

The benefits of the human touch cannot be under estimated.

Research has shown that Oncology Massage can improve the quality of life and assist with managing symptoms for people with a history or diagnosis of cancer.

Oncology massage is a particular therapy designed specifically to deliver a safe and therapeutic massage to clients with cancer, and who may be undergoing treatment such as chemotherapy and radiation.

This therapy is known to improve symptoms such as:
* Pain
* Fatigue
* Anxiety
* Nausea
* Depression
* Other symptoms such as shortness of breath, memory problems, dry mouth or disturbed sleep.

My clients can expect a bespoke massage which has been modified from the traditional massage experience in order to accommodate the various treatments and symptoms of their disease.

Hi everyone, here is your Mad March muscle fact!

The Palmaris longus, a tendon which runs along the middle of your forearm to your wrist is missing in about 10 to 15% of the human population – to do a quick check if you have one, take a look at the picture below.
if you don’t see that raised tendinous ridge, don’t panic you’re not a mutant !
In other species this muscle is used to retract the claws, which is no doubt why you can see what looks to be a pretty awesome Palmaris longus tendon on Wolverine’s left wrist in the photo below. Grrrrrr. 😍
I’m one of the 10-15% , I don’t have one!

Hi everyone, here is your monthly muscle fact for February , the month of love.

The heart, which consists of cardiac muscle, is said to be the hardest working muscle in the body. The average adult heart beats 72 times a minute; 100,000 times a day; 3,600,000 times a year; and 2.5 billion times during a 70-year span. This is a great example of dynamic strength as well as strength endurance.

But....how can something so strong be so easily broken ?💔

Happy New Year everyone! 🍾🥂🎉
Here is your January muscle fact....

It’s the beginning of a new year and many people decide to take more exercise and try and get more fit.

Whilst trying to hit your 10,000 steps goal each day you are using close to 200 muscles, (yes 200!) in your body with each single step!!
You’re going to ache somewhere!

Massage can of course help you to look after those muscles, prevent injury and increase performance.

As an incentive to look after yourself in 2019 ,I’m offering 3 sessions for the price of 2. The sessions must be booked in January but can be used anytime between 07 January and 01 March.

Looking forward to seeing you in 2019!
Kate.

December is upon us!
It’s officially ok to start talking about Christmas 🎄 !
Can you spot the Christmas tree in the picture below?
The two major muscles that form this Christmas tree shape are the the Erector Spinae and Latissimus Dorsi.

Also, if you’re stuck for a Christmas present please remember I offer gift vouchers.
You can buy them either for a specific treatment or in any denomination of money. ££

And don’t forget to treat yourself this Christmas!
How about a nice back, neck and shoulders treatment to relax you and reduce some of the tension that always builds up this time of year , getting you fighting fIt for the festivities ! ( Try saying that ten times very quickly after 2 mulled wines!)

Just message or phone me and I can arrange the voucher to be sent either direct to the recipient or to you.

Don’t forget I offer Sports massage , Indian head massage , pregnancy and post natal massage , geriatric massage, palliative massage and from the end of January I hope to be able to offer oncology massage.

Last but by no means least , can I take this early opportunity to thank you all for your support and custom and wish you and yours a very happy Christmas and New year!

PS. If you could share my page it would be a lovely Christmas present for me! 🎄🎁🎅🏻

An appropriate fact now that the dark cold nights have arrived ....Despite months of inactivity during hibernation, bears are not subject to any muscle wastage or degeneration, the same cannot unfortunately be said for humans!

October’s monthly muscle fact....

There are over 100 muscles in each of your feet (in addition to 26 bones and 33 joints).

Gives a whole new perspective to the phrase “ my feet ache”!

September’s monthly muscle fact.
There are no muscles in human fingers!
They are constructed of ligaments, tendons and three bones. They move by the pull of forearm muscles on the tendons.

August’s Monthly muscle fact.....
If all your muscles could pull in one direction you could create a force of 25 tons!
( And you’d definitely be on the Tug o’ war team!)
