Who it's for
Not just for athletes
Whether you are training for a title or just want your back to stop aching, the goal is the same: move freely and feel better.
- 01
Athletes & teams
Footballers, lifters, fighters and runners. Recovery between sessions, match-day prep and getting a niggle sorted before it becomes an injury.
- 02
Gym & weekend warriors
Heavy legs after leg day, tight hips from running, shoulders that never quite loosen off. Keep training without the aches.
- 03
Desk days & everyday aches
You do not need to play sport. Neck, back and shoulder tension from work, driving, or a weekend in the garden, eased properly.
Treatments
What we treat with
Every session is tailored. Most combine a few of these, based on what Ben finds at your assessment.
- 01 Sports Massage Targeted, firm work on the muscles you train hardest, to ease tightness, clear niggles and keep you moving well.
- 02 Deep Tissue Release Slower, deeper pressure for stubborn knots and long-standing tension that a general massage will not shift.
- 03 Cupping Therapy Cups lift and decompress the tissue to boost blood flow and ease tension. Often combined with massage in the same session.
- 04 Trigger Point Therapy Precise, sustained pressure on the tight knots that refer pain elsewhere, like headaches from the neck or back pain from the glutes.
- 05 Swedish Massage Lighter, flowing pressure to relax the whole body. For stress, sleep and simply feeling better.
- 06 Event Preparation Pre and post-event sessions to get you primed for match day, race day or competition, and recovering fast afterwards.
