Kathryn Mitchell, Soft Tissue Therapist Soft Tissue Therapy including Sports, Remedial and Pregnancy Massage Treatments in Southcote, Reading. EASE, RESTORE, REDISCOVER MOVEMENT.

As a Soft Tissue Therapist, I enjoy working collaboratively with individuals experiencing minor and chronic ​musculoskeletal injuries or pain. My approach is also ideal for anyone looking to move with greater ease or ​reduce tension. I work using a combination of sports, remedial, and advanced clinical massage techniques, honed through ​training with the London School of Sports Massage (LSSM) and the Jing Institute of Massage and ​Complementary Medicine. In addition to the above, I am also trained in pregnancy massage and hot ​stone therapy through the Jing Institute. I also have kinseology taping qualification. I am fully insured, a Member of the Institute of Sports and Remedial Massage (ISRM), hold an Enhanced DBS ​Certificate, a BTEC L5 Professional Diploma in Soft Tissue Therapy and a BTEC Professional Diploma in ​Advanced Clinical and Sports Massage. I have also undertaken further training in Mental Health specifically ​developed for Massage Therapists. Before embarking on my journey as a Soft Tissue Therapist, I was a Nursery Nurse for many years, working ​with children with additional needs and supporting vulnerable families. This experience has equipped me ​with a deep understanding of care and compassion, which I bring into my therapy practice. As a mother of two young adults, I understand the demands of a busy life and the importance of ​maintaining a healthy balance. Outside of my work, I enjoy photography, long distance and trail running, ​cycling, yoga and generally spending time in the great outdoors. SERVICES AVAILABLE:

Pre and Post Event Massage

Pre event massage: Prepares the joints, tissues and mind for optimal performance. Post event massage: Relaxes the nervous system, helps prevent post event soreness and aids range of movement. Both treatments avoid deeper, prolonged soft tissue work to align with event timing. Soft Tissue Therapy

Combines sports and remedial massage with advanced clinical massage, hot stones and stretching techniques to target individual needs. Whether you’re an athlete looking to enhance your training, someone seeking pain-free movement, or you simply would like to manage daily stress, tailored treatments can help. Pregnancy Massage

Specialised treatments to help expectant mothers manage common pregnancy-related aches, pains, and conditions. These nurturing sessions offer not only physical relief but also a calm space for you to relax and focus on yourself

Discount for Parents or Carers of Children with Additional Needs

As a parent of a neuro diverse young adult, I genuinely believe it is so important to look after your own physical health and general well-being. Soft Tissue Therapy can be highly beneficial for this. I aim to make these treatments as affordable as possible by offering a discount.

Last Friday was brilliant - learning effective rehab exercises for various knee and foot, injuries, surgeries and conditions!

I got to go back 'home' to Brighton for the day too (even if the trains conspired against me returning to Reading again😴).

It was good to get stuck in with exercises ourselves and make friends with the resistance band - something I regularly use for my own strength and conditioning to assist my running.

I look forward to sharing what I have learnt with you all🙂

The clocks go back this weekend meaning disrupted sleep for some.⏰💤

Quality sleep is an often overlooked important factor in healing and recovery from injury (or illness), as well as in managing pain and stress.

Here's a useful infographic from the Stress Management Society should you suffer with sleep disturbance over the coming days.

We do seem to be into the cough, colds, flu and Covid season again at the moment🤧

To help keep everyone happy and healthy this autumn and winter, please consider rescheduling your appointment if you're feeling poorly — even at short notice, it's never a problem. You can also give me a call if you're unsure.

Massage isn't suitable when you have a fever or any infectious condition, and as a self-employed individual, I really appreciate your understanding and support.

Thank you for helping to keep the treatment room safe and well for everyone🙏!

If you are currently suffering, here's a little review of a product I generally have available in the treatment room for occasional use and for anyone who would like to keep some at home....
