Who is it for?
A sports massage benefits everyone! Sports massage is becoming increasingly popular within the sporting and non-sporting population, due to the effectiveness of the treatment. Sports massage is appropriate for anyone who is in need of remedial or soft tissue work irrespective of age, level of fitness or gender. If you suffer from aches and pains, are recovering from an injury, need a bit of maintenance or just want to relax a sports massage is for you. Each massage is tailored for your needs. Example of some people I massage - sports people, office and factory workers, builders, retired people and busy mums to name a few!!
Price List
Before each appointment I will always discuss how you are feeling and if there are any changes in your health or activity levels, so the best treatment can be provided. Often before or during a treatment, range of motion is assessed and stretches might be recommended depending on your needs.
Initial Consultation/First Visit 60 minutes - £45
During this session a short medical form will need to be completed. We will discuss your needs and any aches, pains or injuries you might have, as well as doing a postural assessment. This will be followed by a massage to suit your needs.
60 minute appointment - £45
A full body massage to help those slightly stiff muscles stay in good shape, a massage for a targeted area or a massage for relaxation. Kinesiology taping is included in this if the treatment requires this.
45 minute appointment - £40
A shorter massage for areas that need specific treatment. You might have a stiff back, neck and shoulders from working at a computer all day, you might have an injury from a sport or you maybe just want a shorter maintenance massage.
30 minute appointment - £35
A mini massage generally for areas that need specific treatment, pre and post event.
Kinesiology taping (stand alone) - £15
I do include this (if required) in my 60 minute treatments free of charge.
I am also available for pre and post event massages at events. Please contact me if this is of interest to you, your team or your event.
A minimum of 24hrs notice must be given in order to cancel or amend a booking. Failure to provide required notice or non-arrival will result in the full treatment price being charged.

Something About Me
Before becoming a Sports Massage Therapist I was a Primary School Teacher for 8 years then decided I wanted to pursue a career in Sports Massage because it would incorporate my interest in the body, fitness and nutrition. I completed my Sports Massage Diploma in 2021 and have completed some short courses on postural assessment, postural correction and kinesiology taping. I believe continuing to learn and update my knowledge is important in providing the best service to my clients.
I love to be outside running, discovering new routes and enjoying the outside. I am a member of a running club where I am a run leader. I run most distances and have competed in a number of marathons. I like to challenge my body and enjoy the training before an event where you need to think about your nutrition and running plan. In 2024 I am running the London marathon again and plan on running another ultra. As well as running I enjoy yoga, pilates, strength training and cycling.
Because when you stop and look around, this life is pretty amazing!

Testimonials
Client Feedback
Maria treated a knee injury I sustained whilst running. The massage treatment was very effective. Within a few days I had progressed from a very painful attempt at running to running comfortably. Maria has helped me enormously on the road to recovery and I would definitely recommend her.
David Westworth
I'd happily recommend Maria as I went to see her to help with some neck and shoulder discomfort I'd been having from sitting at a desk all day, and after just one treatment she made a huge difference. The range of movement in my neck is so much better now and I will definitely be seeing her again to keep on top of it.
Jo Francis
Maria has helped me enormously with my back pain following slipped discs and compressed nerves. She has given me several exercises to do at home as well as giving a wonderful massage. She has a magical touch and has really made a huge difference. She is a friendly, calm and soothing lady who really listens to your needs. I can highly recommend her she is extremely professional.
