Active Recovery Soft Tissue Therapy

Hello, I initially trained as a level 3 sports massage therapist after developing an interest in anatomy, physiology and rehabilitation after sustaining a rowing injury. Wanting to learn more I then trained as a level 5 soft tissue therapist.I am fully insured and a member of the ISRM. I regularly update my skills with continuing professional development.  I love to treat a wide range of people; whether you have a recent injury/problem, are aiming for a specific sports goal and want to be at your peak, have mobility issues or have on going pain or a medical condition. You don't have to be a competitive athlete, or even sporty, to benefit from a treatment. My mission is to help all people to regain function and improve their overall quality of life.When I'm not treating I enjoy rowing, weight training, dancing, singing, playing the piano. learning the drums and spending time with family and friends.Please feel free to contact me to chat over any questions you may have.Thanks Nikki

Was very impressed with the massage Nikki gave me. I have been in a lot of pain with my shoulder for the last three months. I have had another person give me three massages without any success. Nikki was very thorough and also asked me lots of questions to make sure she was targeting the right area. Since the massage I have not been in any more pain and can actually get a good night sleep. I would highly recommend Nikki.

I previously visited Nikki regarding an ankle injury and more recently with a trapped nerve in my neck causing me great pain and limiting my ability to move my head. On both occasions she provided me with a relaxing treatment to alleviate the initial pain and followed up with a detailed exercise plan (with accompanying videos) to both strengthen and encourage mobility. With Nikki’s knowledge, care and advice, I strongly recommend her services to anyone else either struggling with pain or looking for an incredible sports massage to coincide with their fitness regime.

I contacted Nikki with regard to an ankle injury. She undertook a full and detailed medical history and assessment to determine the treatment required. She demonstrated the exercises required to enable me to mobilise and strengthen my ankle. Nikki ensured that I was able to undertake them all correctly . This was followed up by an email detailing the exercises and also links to videos of the exercises for reference. I would thoroughly recommend Nikki , she was professional, very knowledgeable , approachable and friendly and provided great care and advice.

Nikki has been treating me for a painful arm/ shoulder recently, also she has given me relevant exercises to do at home in-between therapy sessions. I have found her services excellent and would recommend to anyone.
