Sports Massage is just a title — every treatment is tailored to you.
Whether you're dealing with long term aches and pains, sport-specific tension or simply in need of some well-deserved you-time, a massage should be a lifestyle not a luxury ✨

I get asked all the time from clients what myofascial cupping marks mean, so here it is:
Cupping marks are not bruises and they do not indicate tissue damage. The color and intensity of the marks reflect what’s happening in the tissue beneath the skin at that moment.
These marks are created by negative pressure, which lifts the skin and fascia, increases local circulation, and helps bring stagnant blood, lymph, and metabolic waste to the surface so the body can process and clear it.
What the colors may indicate:
* Light pink to red: Healthy circulation and good tissue response
* Darker red or purple: Areas of stagnation, congestion, or restriction
* Brownish tones: Older stagnation that’s been present for a longer time
* Little to no color: Minimal restriction or very efficient circulation
Marks typically fade within 3–10 days, depending on the individual, hydration, activity level, and overall health. As tissue health improves and circulation becomes more efficient, marks usually become lighter or may not appear at all.
Cupping marks are simply feedback from the body, not a measure of how “deep” or “intense” the treatment was.

🚨Important educational post 🚨
Regular sports massages are vital 💪
They support muscle memory by improving proprioception (body awareness) and flexibility.
They also help manage muscle tone and reduce re-tightening, allowing muscles to recover and perform more effectively in any type of activity or occupation.
We hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year!
Thank you so much for your support since September, when I started up again. It has been amazing to welcome both familiar faces and new clients.
As a reminder, we will be changing locations in the New Year. Full details were sent via email last week, so please be sure to check if you haven’t already.
Thank you again for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you in the New Year.

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation
IASTM can offer several benefits for a wide range of people, especially those dealing with muscle tension, pain, or limited movement. Common benefits include:
Reduced muscle tension
Helps calm tight or overactive muscles without causing them to guard or tense up further.
Improved mobility and flexibility
Enhances how muscles and fascia glide, making movement feel easier and freer.
Better circulation
Increases blood flow to the treated area, supporting healing and reducing stiffness.
Decreased pain sensitivity
Stimulates mechanoreceptors in the skin and fascia, which can help down-regulate pain signals.
Prepares tissue for deeper treatment
Loosens superficial layers so deeper manual therapy—if needed—can be more comfortable and effective.
Supports recovery and performance
Useful for athletes or active individuals looking to recover faster and move better.

RIGHT IS EVERYBODY READY!!!
🚨 A HUGE DISCOUNT ALERT 🚨
20% OFF ALL TREATMENTS IN DECEMBER
I want to give back this December with a huge discount to new and regular clients from 3 years ago!!
Im so grateful to be back working again!
Here to help with any aches, pains, or issues you may have.
When those cups work their magic, they lift your skin and fascia away from the muscle — and that means:
🔥 Better blood flow = more oxygen + nutrients
💧 Lymphatic boost = clears out toxins + lactic acid
🧬 Fibroblast activation = faster tissue repair + collagen support
😌 Nervous system reset = melts away stress + tension
Bottom line: Less soreness, faster recovery, and muscles that feel ready to smash your next workout. 🏋️♀️💥
