About Me:
Having grown up in Africa I have always led an active lifestyle and played a lot of sport. In 2003 I decided to turn her keen interest in sports into a profession and completed my training for this in July of that year.
I specialise in the treatment and rehabilitation of injuries. I have extensive experience working with runners, cyclists, rowers and triathletes.
My initial qualification was with Premier in Sports Massage Therapy (VTCT Dip in Sports Therapy).  Since then I have completed courses in taping and strapping, on site massage, pregnancy massage, cranio-sacral therapy and hot stone massage.
I am a member of the Sports Massage Association (Level 3) and Sports Therapy Organisation.

Massage in Pregnancy
A weekly or monthly massage session will help you with the aches and pains of pregnancy as well as reducing stress and promoting relaxation.  Pregnant clients report that their massage sessions leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable, and with increased self-confidence and an enhanced body image.
Massage during pregnancy helps to reduce stress and promote relaxation and provides emotional support (especially for those women who are going through the experience alone).  It relieves muscle spasms, cramps and general aches and pains.  It increases circulation and thus reduces the possibility of varicose veins and swelling in the feet and legs, helps with digestion and reduces the likelihood of stretch marks
