Hi everyone, I thought I would finally add an introduction to my page!
Experience:
I’m Alex and I’ve been a qualified sports massage therapist for 5 years after training in Portsmouth and London. During this time, I have completed a Bachelors in Sport & Exercise Science and a Masters in Physiotherapy. I have experience in professional football and working with various sportspersons including Premier League officials, GB athletes, pro boxers, marathon runners and many more. I have also had exposure within the National Health Service including A&E, Acute Stroke Units and Home Oxygen Services.
Interests:
I am extremely passionate about caring for people with musculoskeletal conditions and supporting them throughout their rehabilitation journeys. I am enthusiastic about the physiological/psychological benefits of movement and exercise, in particular strength and mobility training. Lastly, I have a huge interest in the complexity of pain and how it is not always as simple as tissue damage = pain. Emotions, previous experiences, trauma, self efficacy, stress and beliefs can play major roles in our perception of pain.
What I offer:
Although I am a huge advocate for active rehabilitation and participation, I do believe manual therapy (massage) has its place and can help aid recovery/reduce muscle soreness. I offer sports massage therapy from my home clinic in Gosport and its been great to see lots of new clients over the last few months. If you would like to know more about this or book in, please feel free to send me a message.
Prices:
45 minutes: £30
60 minutes: £35
Thank you all!
Alex
