Testimonials

Posted by with No Comments

These past few months have been really busy on the sports massage front, seeing a lot of runners in particular, who have been training for various different events and distances. I’ve seen a large number of marathon runners this year competing in events across the globe (Marathon des Sables, Paris Marathon, Boston Marathon, Brighton Marathon, London Marathon, Milton Keynes Marathon, Prague International Marathon, Stockholm Marathon). Regular sports massages can give a great boost to your training, preventing injury, speeding up recovery and keeping you in all round good condition. It’s always great to get good feedback from clients and here are a couple of recent testimonials

‘I’m a regular marathon runner, triathlete, ironman competitor and long distance swimmer. Sports massage is a necessary piece of maintenance for the body for endurance athletes to ensure your competing at your optimum levels. I see Natasha before an event for a deep tissue massage to get my body feeling as fresh as possible and in top form. After an event Natasha treats the aches and pains, and ensures a speedy recovery before I start training again for the next event. Since seeing Natasha for sports massages over the past two years my performances have definitely picked up and I’ve had no injuries. Natasha has a great understanding of endurance sports and the inherent strains on the body. I’d highly recommend any beginner or seasoned endurance athletes to receive a regular treatment from Natasha.’

Jamie McCann

‘As an Age Group Performance runner, I have come out of marathon retirement after 18 years. The old body ain’t what it used to be. And that’s where Natasha comes in. Her wonderful massages have helped the rigors of long distance training. She has an empathetic understanding of the body’s needs in this situation. Regular massages have eased the programme and her attention to the pre and post race massages have been ever so helpful. Any runner, no matter the distances, will find her soothing ways very relaxing – and help keep you going. And she is so friendly with it! Can’t recommend enough.’

Max O’Kane

‘From mid-February overtraining pains to last minute niggles, Natasha’s deep tissue work fixed them all. Not only was I able to run at all, I was able to run pain free. I’ll be back – when I sign up to my next marathon!’

The importance of pregnancy massage

Posted by with No Comments

Pregnancy is a time of many changes: physical, social, and emotional. Massage is a wonderful way to relax, increase your energy and relieve discomfort. The benefits of massage during pregnancy are huge and more and more midwives and GP’s are recommending massage during pregnancy.

Massage during pregnancy

• reduces stress on weight-bearing joints
• increases flexibility
• eases constipation, gas and heartburn
• reduces excess fluid retention
• slows the process of varicose veins
• relieves common discomforts
• reduces stress hormones which cause anxiety

Studies have shown that women who receive regular massages during pregnancy have lower rates of premature birth, fewer obstetrical problems and their babies are less likely to have postnatal complications.

My pregnant clients feel confident and reassured by my experience and background as a remedial massage therapist, certified in pregnancy massage. They also feel relaxed, knowing I am aware when massage is not appropriate, know what precautions to take and pressures to use, when to contact their GP and how to position them comfortably and safely.

The importance of Pre and Post-event massage

When you give blood, sweat and tears all year, training for a big event like The London Marathon, the last thing you want is to injure yourself prior to the big day. Many athletes neglect to book in for pre-event massage due to last minute training.
Pre-event massage plays an important role in your training and preparation for a sports event or competition. Pre-event massage can be performed from two days to just before the event. Neither first time nor deep tissue massage is recommended as both can take a couple of days or more to recover.
Your masseuse will tailor all treatments to your specific needs at all times and pre-event massage is no different. All athletes handle competition differently, some will need a relaxing massage to calm their nerves; others will want a short, invigorating rub-down simply to assist in warming up their muscles, increase circulation and prevent injury. The emphasis here is on the main muscle groups that will be used during the event.
Post-event massage is equally as important as pre-event massage. Many athletes neglect to do a proper cool down after competition due to exhaustion, celebration or disappointment. The aim of post-event massage is to reduce muscle tension, soreness, and inflammation and to assist with overall recovery. This massage generally takes 15-20 minutes and should be performed right after the event to reduce the amount of recovery time needed by the athlete. It is recommended that you book in for a longer massage treatment in the 1-2 days following the event as well.
So if you are based in the NW6 area and fancy a consultation then please let me know on: 07881 630 060
