A bit about me! I’m Abi and qualified with an Active IQ Level 4 certificate in Sports Massage.
I decided on a career change and requalified in 2015 after I started having sports massage myself. My active lifestyle had started to cause me discomfort and I found the idea of being able to resolve pain and improve performance fascinating; so when the time came, I decided to do the training.
As a competitive sportswoman of many years, I know what it is like to be under-performing due to muscle pain so I love the feeling of being able to help people recover, prepare for events or return to regular training after injury. My clients range from highly competitive athletes to older people who suffer with a lack of mobility so there are all sorts of people who can benefit from sports massage.
Treatments can be specific and work on areas of pain or cover general sections (back and shoulders/legs and hips). Or you may want a package tailored to your sport, taking into account specific muscle groups.
Here is a bit more about what sports massage can do for you…
I am based in North Devon, near Umberleigh but also work in Barnstaple and can do home visits around the area if preferable.
