Spotlight Massage & Recovery

This is one of my most frequently asked questions - can massage help with sciatica?

And the answer is … kind of! 😆

Massage isn’t a cure for sciatica/sciatic pain, but it can definitely be used to help manage it as part of the recovery process 💪🏻

Grateful to be invited back to work at the Nottingham Outlaw triathlon! 🚴🏼‍♂️

We worked with the athletes to help provide post-event massage recovery, definitely well earned from everyone who took part yesterday! 🏃🏼‍♀️

Always great to network with other massage therapists/physios too, it was so nice to meet you all! 😊

Today has been my last day working in London until September when the new season commences at The Royal Ballet & Opera! 🩰✨

It’s been such a busy season for the staff & artists, & I’m always so grateful to be a part of it 🫶🏻

Whilst I’m off over the summer, more appointments are available in clinic on Mondays (Mansfield, NG19) 🤗 - click the link in the comments to see availability & to book 🙌🏻

Monday appointments are now available throughout August! Click the booking link in the comments to see availability & to book 😊💪🏻

Things to remember when it comes to massage in the hot weather! ☀️

As we’re having a heatwave in the UK, it’s so important (especially this week!) to look after ourselves as best as we can 🙌🏻

✅ Hydration

✅ Skin health (avoiding sunburn!)

✅ Gentle movement

✅ Rest

❗️& remember to keep an eye out for heat exhaustion and heat stroke! Seek advice from NHS 111/999 depending on severity if needed!

And all my clients will be relieved to know that my new clinic space stays nice and cool in the summer 😆🙌🏻

As usual when the weather gets warmer, if you have a hot stone massage booked and would rather swap to sports massage, let me know ideally the day before your appointment! 😊

This month marks 4 years of working with the 🎭✨

I’ve had so many incredible opportunities over the past 4 years here working with staff & artists from both the ballet & the opera 🩰

I started working with the RBO whilst I was coming towards the end of my MSc in Performing Arts Medicine at - being here was always one of my dream career goals and I will always feel so grateful for it 💫

(Appointments for back home are filling up! This is usually my quieter time of year but this year it isn’t so much 😂 make sure to book in advance to secure an appointment - any queries please drop me a message, thank you!)

& thank you to all those who support me with my business, it means so much! 🤗

What sports massage can help with vs what it can’t help with! 💪🏻

Sometimes the lines can blur between sports massage therapist ➡️ physiotherapist ➡️ doctor, so this is to show realistically what sports massage can help (& cannot help) with 😊
