Have a look at our treatments below:

Sports Massage

Sports massage is a focused, hands-on treatment designed to ease muscle tension, improve movement and support recovery from the physical demands of work, training or everyday life.


Sports massage is ideal for:
• Office workers experiencing neck, shoulder or lower back tension
• Manual workers dealing with muscle fatigue or repetitive strain
• Runners, lifters and gym-goers wanting better recovery
• Individuals living with chronic pain or restricted movement
• Anyone managing tight muscles, stiffness or postural discomfort


What sports massage helps with:
• Reducing muscle tension, soreness and stiffness
• Improving mobility, flexibility and movement quality
• Supporting recovery after physical activity or long hours at work
• Enhancing circulation and soft tissue health
• Managing postural strain and everyday aches


What to expect:
Each session is tailored to your needs and may include deep tissue techniques, stretching and focused trigger point work. Pressure is always adjusted to keep the treatment effective yet comfortable.


This treatment is not advisable for persons with:
• Acute injuries or significant inflammation
• Fever or active infections
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or similar vascular conditions
• Uncontrolled cardiovascular issues
• Any condition where massage has been advised against by a healthcare professional

Soft Tissue Tool Therapy

IASTM is a hands-on therapy that uses specialised tools to reduce muscle tightness, break down scar tissue and improve soft tissue mobility. It can help relieve pain, improve movement and support faster recovery from injury.


Benefits include:
• Breaking down scar tissue and adhesions
• Reducing pain, irritation and inflammation
• Improving flexibility and range of motion
• Boosting circulation to support healing


Who can benefit?
• Athletes recovering from soft tissue injuries
• Active individuals with muscle tightness or tension
• People with tendonitis, chronic pain or restricted movement
• Post-surgical clients managing scar tissue or adhesions


What to expect:
A session involves using controlled scraping techniques along the muscles and soft tissues. Some areas may feel tender if they are tight or restricted, but pressure is always adapted for comfort. Mild redness is normal as circulation increases.


Common conditions treated:
• Tendonitis (such as tennis elbow or Achilles issues)
• IT band tightness and myofascial restrictions
• Chronic back, neck and shoulder pain
• Post-surgical scarring and adhesions
• Overuse injuries, stiffness and reduced mobility

Chinese Cupping

Cupping is a therapeutic technique that uses controlled suction to lift the skin and underlying tissues. This increases blood flow, reduces muscle tension and supports recovery, making it popular in both sports therapy and general wellness.


Benefits include:
• Relief from muscle tightness and soreness
• Faster recovery after training or injury
• Reduced inflammation and joint stiffness
• Improved flexibility and range of motion
• Deep relaxation and stress reduction
• Support for lymphatic drainage and detoxification


Who can benefit?
• Athletes and regular gym-goers
• Individuals with chronic pain or lingering injuries
• Anyone experiencing tension, stiffness or fatigue


What to expect:
You may feel a gentle pulling sensation as the cups create suction. Circular marks can appear on the skin afterwards—this is a normal response to increased circulation and typically fades within a few days.


This treatment is not advisable for persons with:
• Blood clotting disorders or a history of DVT
• Active skin infections, rashes or open wounds
• Severe cardiovascular conditions or organ failure
• Active cancer or conditions where suction therapy is medically restricted

Functional Integrated Dry Needling (FIDN)

FIDN is a targeted therapy that uses fine, sterile needles to release tight muscles, reduce pain and restore mobility. It is effective for sports recovery, injury rehabilitation and long-term muscle tension.


Benefits include:
• Trigger point release for tight or overactive muscles
• Improved flexibility and joint movement
• Reduced pain, irritation and local inflammation
• Faster recovery from sports injuries
• Support for chronic pain and postural dysfunctions


FIDN is ideal for:
• Gym-goers with recurring muscle tightness or knots
• Office workers experiencing tension-related pain
• Individuals recovering from tendon issues or soft tissue injuries
• People dealing with sciatica, migraines or nerve-related pain
• Anyone struggling with restricted movement or muscular imbalance


What to expect:
Fine needles are gently inserted into specific trigger points within the muscle. You may feel a brief twitch or mild discomfort, which is a normal response. Temporary soreness can occur and typically settles within 24–48 hours.


This treatment is not advisable for persons with:
• Pregnancy
• Blood clotting disorders or those taking anticoagulant medication
• Active infections at or near the treatment area
• Severe needle anxiety or phobia
• Conditions where needling has been medically restricted

Sports Taping

Sports taping is a supportive treatment that helps stabilise joints, reduce pain and improve movement. It is commonly used for injury prevention, recovery and day-to-day muscle support.


Benefits include:
• Joint and muscle support without restricting movement
• Reduced swelling and local inflammation
• Pain relief through better posture and alignment
• Enhanced body awareness during exercise and activity
• Faster recovery from sprains, strains and overuse injuries


Sports taping is ideal for:
• Gym-goers and runners needing extra support
• Manual workers dealing with repetitive strain or fatigue
• Office workers with posture-related neck or shoulder tension
• Individuals recovering from injury who require added stability
• People with tendon irritation, joint instability or muscular imbalance


What to expect:
Your therapist will use kinesiology or rigid tape depending on your needs. The tape supports movement, improves circulation and can usually remain on the skin for several days. You will be shown how to care for it properly.


This treatment is not advisable for persons with:
• Open wounds or active skin conditions
• Skin allergies or reactions to adhesive tape
• Infections near the treatment area
• Severe circulatory or neurological conditions
• Any condition where taping has been medically restricted

Infra Red Light Therapy

Infrared light therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths to warm the tissues, reduce inflammation and ease pain. It supports faster recovery from injury and provides effective relief for chronic pain conditions.


Benefits include:
• Increased circulation and improved oxygen delivery

Your one-to-one screening includes several key assessments:
Height and Weight – Helps track body composition changes and highlight risks linked to weight-related conditions.
Blood Pressure – Assesses cardiovascular health and indicates potential issues such as high or low blood pressure.
Peak Flow – Measures lung capacity and airflow, useful for identifying respiratory issues such as asthma or restriction.
Body Fat Percentage – Indicates current fitness levels and highlights risks of both low and high body fat.
Visceral Fat Percentage – Assesses internal fat linked to metabolic concerns including Type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol.
BMI – Screens for potential health risks related to being underweight, overweight or obese.


Important considerations:
This screening is intended for general health awareness and performance optimisation. It is not a diagnostic medical test. If you have existing or suspected medical conditions, please consult a GP or healthcare professional before booking.
