​Muscle tension is generally present with most people, due to any number of possible factors, over time this could lead to pain, restriction & fatigue. With sports massage I use a range of soft tissue techniques to try and help address these concerns. Many of my clients have had positive results with a series of treatments for a wide range of concerns such as non specific back aches, tension headaches, soft tissue restrictions such as limited range of motion of hip flexion to name a few...
​
If you are looking for support with a pain condition, want to try an improve your range of motion or have tired aching muscles that are in need of some attention or perhaps some overall maintenance - sports massage maybe able to provide the relief/support you require.​
​
​​​​Ready to Relax, unwind, switch off?, do you, like most prioritise everything & everyone else first and put yourself at the bottom of the pile, feel like your cup is depleted & in need of topping up again.
​
Daily life can impact on our body in many ways. We can easily become tired, stressed, anxious and are often so busy with no time for ourselves, But we all need to take that time out for some much needed therapeutic relaxation. Physical and emotional stress can be reduced through therapeutic touch , among many other benefits.
​​
Many of my clients share their struggles to find time to switch off at home & always have great intentions to be different the following week, they say it really helps them by scheduling an appointment in the diary, a dedicated block of time just for them.
​I am here to help.​

The treatment starts with some assessments, palpation to the soft tissue, ranges of movement through your joints, this is to try to seek out any problem areas such as signs of restrictions, discomfort, tension or weakness.
​Once I have gathered more details from our consultation time/assessment the treatment is modified to suit your individual needs and to determine which techniques will be the most effective for you.
Despite the name suggests you do not have to be an athlete or sports person to receive treatment from a Sports Massage Therapist. you can receive treatment for any stresses and strains on the body.
Sports massage should not be a painful ordeal that you have to struggle through, I work the opposite to "no pain no gain" - but the "less is more" philosophy - I will be requesting feedback throughout the treatment to check in on your pain threshold comfort levels to make sure it feels more productive over very painful. .​
​
During the treatment you may be asked to move position several times,
​​​

​
Swedish massage works with the whole body to support tension release & deep relaxation.
​
Therapeutic massage can help to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) which is responsible for the "rest and digest" state that promotes relaxation
​
Pressure receptors in the skin and muscles, are stimulated during massage leading to the release of "feel-good" hormones such as serotonin and dopamine, which signals the brain to shift the body into its "rest and digest" mode, lowering heart rate and blood pressure & reducing stress hormones like cortisol.
Massage holds many potential benefits, it may have a positive influence with quality of sleep & help to promote improved concentration
By putting our bodies into a relaxation response can help to slow down respiration promoting deeper & more controlled breathing which in turn can aid the mind to slow down.
​
​​some other potential benefits are:
​
-
May enhanced feeling of relaxation and contentment
-
May help to decrease anxiety
-
May offer relief from pain,
-
May assist in the release of endorphins, the body’s feel good hormones
-
May help improved blood and lymph circulation
-
May promote an increase of energy levels
-
May help support a general sense of health and well-being
​
This massage can be tailored to your individual preference/need, therefore more pressure can be applied in those areas storing more tension - So if you are looking for relaxation & some tension relief this could be the treatment for you.

Approx 60 min appointment

​
Reflexology is a wonderful complimentary therapy, that pretty much everybody can experience.
​
It is believed that our feet mirror our body systems & organs & that we have corresponding reflexes on the feet to access these points.
​
it is thought that stimulating points on the feet is believed to promote a natural state of balance within our body – the correct terminology is called Homeostasis, by re-balancing the systems of the body creating a more harmonious environment & ultimately promote wellness within.
​
Reflexology very much supports on a personal individual basis, I find that most clients feel really relaxed after just one treatment.
Often l also hear how reflexology has really supported my clients over time in many areas, such as releasing tension & feeling a decrease in their pain condition, also the feeling of calm & being more grounded. Feelings of stress reduction & a rooted sense of overall wellbeing, the "I just feel better" feeling and many many times on how reflexology has helped with my clients sleep.
​
The only way you will know how it will affect you personally in your particular situation will be to try it for yourself.
​
Reflexology is not a cure but a wonderful tool that may offer support to our bodies systems, that might need additional support and a helping hand.
Reflexology is not to replace any medical interventions at all and is not an alternative to seeing your Doctor or taking medical advice
​
Reflexology overall is a pleasant & relaxing therapy, however, there maybe some moments during the treatment when you experience some sensations, these ouchi moments may indicate a reflexology imbalance within a specific reflex or zone, which might be held for a number of reasons for example stress or tension. Reflexology may try to improve these imbalances, by working these congested reflexed is said to bring a positive energy flow to the area/s that need it most & potentially assist in breaking down & releasing negative stored energy.​​​

Testimonials
​
Hayley is a first class therapist and her style of massage is firm, which is rare with many therapists I've experienced. She is very welcoming and puts you at ease. She spends time getting to know you and what particular issues you have. I have a history of back pain and each time Hayley has worked on my back, the relief from the daily discomfort I suffer was immediately evident. She fully explains what she is doing and encourages you to do exercises to help between treatments. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hayley to anyone seeking a professional massage therapist, as I can honestly say that she is the most effective therapist I've experienced since I injured my back in a car accident 30 years ago.

Hayley was thoroughly professional, discussed with me beforehand any problems I may have, checked out my general health and answered any questions I raised. With each area that she was working on she explained what she was doing, why and the benefits it would give. I felt very comfortable and relaxed with Hayley and would have no hesitation in recommending her. I had problems with my shoulder after years of playing squash and she was able to help with the general movement and pain.

HI would highly recommend Hayley for a professional yet friendly sports and holistic massage. She assesses you at the start of the treatment, explains what areas she’s going to work on and why and what the aim of the treatment is. She encourages feedback so if the pressure is a bit too much for you to take, she eases off, so you are never in a position whereby the treatment is uncomfortable or painful which I’ve suffered previously. For ongoing muscle issues, she recommends exercises to improve long term outcomes.
