Congratulations to Lynsey for a ‘seasons best’ in the Stroud half marathon.

Also, Emily (too shy for a pic! 🙈), for an all-time PB at Stroud.

Both ladies train hard, have their training ‘ups & downs’ (as we all do!) and also know the importance of regular sports & remedial massage.

Improved recovery rate, getting niggles sorted to avoid further injury, and getting them prepared for their next training block.

Excellent running ladies, well done ! 🤗👏🏼🏆

A double congratulations to two of my clients, Tom & Luke, both getting Marathon PB's..! 👏🏼🏆

Tom (L) originally came to me for Sports & Remedial massage therapy to deal with plantar fasciitis & calf issues.

Over a course of treatments, integrated with his training, managed an injury-free 3:15 PB in the Bournemouth Marathon 😳😮🙌🏼

Luke (R) has been Personal Training with me and working on his running strength & conditioning, for greater running economy.

Luke is also "the stiffest man on the planet", so regular Sports & Remedial massage therapy has helped prevent injury and train effectively.

A 4:15 PB in the Birmingham marathon for him this weekend 😁👏🏼👍🏼

Congratulations guys !! 🎉🎊🍻🍻

It's "Flexibility Fridaaaaay" 🤸🏻‍♀️🤗

The "Crucifix Stretch" is a firm favourite with my Personal Training and massage clients

If you're short on time, then this stretch is a MUST if you want to stretch out;

Calves
Hamstrings
ITB (Ilio-tibial band)
Glutes (bum)
Lower / mid and upper back
Anterior Deltoid (front part of shoulders)

Keep this stretch slow & controlled, relax into it, and take long, deep breaths

This is a relaxing stretch that lets gravity to do the work for you

Give it a go, and let me know how you get on 😊

More "medal madness" from massage regular; Kat.

Super chuffed to help Kat overcome injury & niggles and see her complete her first half marathon running all the way

A significant PB for her and well deserved 😁👏🏼🏅

More sports massage success with Andrea, with a couple of "firsts"

The first, first, being two half marathons in two weeks

The second, first, being that the second was the first international half marathon run...! (Clear as mud?!... Good! 😝)

Congratulations Andrea, on the Great North Run and Porto Half Marathons 🏃🏻‍♀️🏁🏅🎖😁

Great to catch up with some of my runners after their Bristol Half Marathon performances on Sunday

Huuuuge congratulations to,

Will; All time PB in 1:28.27

Emma; Overcoming injury and achieving her sub-2hrs target with 1:54

Lynsey; Her second fastest half marathon (1 min 30secs shy of a PB - that could have easily been smashed if she'd not stopped for selfies & crowd-hugs...! 😳🤦🏼‍♂️😂)

Now some say that dedicated training, support from friends & family, and a healthy diet got them to achieve their goals,

But we all know it was purely down to the sports massage treatments they've been receiving from me, during their training... 😁👏🏼🙌🏼

Well done guys 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
