Sports therapy with Cheryl
Assessed on consultation, then a plan.
Cheryl is able to treat sporting injuries on professional athletes, and just as happily the rest of us. If you’ve injured yourself or suffer with chronic pain, this could be your next port of call. She works with athletes, active people and those managing long-term pain or postural issues, combining hands-on therapy, exercise prescription and plain explanation.
You will be assessed on consultation, and a treatment plan will be made before any treatment takes place. A 30-minute sports massage is £50, and injury therapy & recovery is £65. Cheryl is available every Friday, 11am to 3pm.
Treatments
Injury and pain relief treatments
- Sports massage
- Better recovery from physical activity, improved healing and repair, better posture and range of movement (which reduces the risk of injury), eased delayed-onset muscle soreness, a performance boost, and relaxation. Sports massage, 30 minutes: £50
- Injury therapy & recovery
- For injuries, chronic pain and postural problems: assessed on consultation, then treated to a plan agreed with you. £65
- Deep tissue and Swedish massage
- If you want to relax and unwind, a Swedish massage is perfect. If you’re dealing with mobility issues or chronic pain, something deeper may be more appropriate. Deep tissue leg £32 · back, neck & shoulder from £46 · deep tissue body £70 · full body Swedish from £75
- Dry needling
- Thin needles, similar to acupuncture needles, are inserted into or near muscle trigger points. They stimulate the muscles to contract or twitch, which helps relax them, reduce inflammation, relieve pain and improve range of motion. Also used on the face and neck for tension, headaches and sinus problems.
- Electro dry needling
- Dry needling combined with electrical stimulation: fine needles in the trigger points, pulses through the needles to relax muscles and reduce pain. Can help with muscle tension, chronic pain, arthritic pain, sprains, joint restrictions and nerve damage. Not suitable for anyone with a blood disorder or on blood thinners.
- Cupping therapy
- Suction cups placed on the skin for a few minutes to increase blood flow and promote healing. Benefits include pain and inflammation relief, decreased muscle tension, migraine and chronic headache relief and improved gastrointestinal health.
