Level 3 or Level 4 Sports Massage — which one should you choose?

Active IQ Level 3 Sports Massage is the foundation.
It’s designed for those starting out or fitness professionals looking to expand their skillset. The course focuses on anatomy, basic assessment, and hands-on techniques for treating non-acute dysfunctional tissue in active clients, allowing you to practise independently as a sports massage therapist.

Active IQ Level 4 Sports Massage is the natural progression and can be completed immediately after Level 3.
It develops more advanced clinical reasoning and introduces joint-specific assessment, deeper soft tissue techniques, and post-acute or chronic injury management, enabling therapists to work with more complex presentations.

Both courses are practical, hands-on, and taught in a supportive learning environment.

Well done to everyone who competed in the Telford 10k 👏
We had a lot of clients out there and it was great to see so many PBs on a fast course.

Also, congratulations to those who took on the Mortimers Forest Trail - a brilliant route and a really well-organised event put on by . Tough terrain, great atmosphere, and proper trail running at its best.

If you’re recovering from a race or planning your next one, we’re always happy to help keep you moving well.
