When you’re in pain, the instinct is to rest. But too much rest can lead to stiffness, weaker muscles, and even more discomfort. Chronic pain needs movement, circulation, and targeted care—this is where sports massage and self-recovery techniques come in.
I know how to target the muscles responsible for tension headaches. By releasing tight spots in the upper back, shoulders, and jaw, massage can reduce the frequency and intensity of migraines.
I focus on restoring mobility, circulation, and relaxation, helping break the cycle of pain. Whether it’s persistent back pain, sciatic discomfort, or joint stiffness, the right hands-on approach can ease pain and improve function.
Active recovery is key
Beyond massage, active recovery is key. That’s why we’re launching a series of PDFs to guide you in movement, mobility work, and self-massage techniques to complement your sessions. Healing isn’t just about what happens in the clinic—it’s about what you do every day.
If pain has been holding you back, let’s create a plan to get you moving comfortably again. Book in with one of our specialists and take the next step toward long-term relief.
