Quick assessment
What's tight or sore, what are your muscle recruitment patterns, what you've been doing and what you're training for.
Firm, targeted massage to ease tight, sore muscles, speed up recovery, improve movement patterns and keep you training. It's not just for athletes.
Sports massage uses a range of techniques on muscles, tendons and connective tissue. It's firmer and more focused than a relaxing massage, and aimed at specific problem areas rather than the whole body. In addition to this a specialist Neuromuscular techniques is used here at Billericay Sports Therapy to re-activate your entire muscle system which further enhances the benefits of Sports Massage.
It can help relieve tension and soreness, improve how freely you move, support recovery from training & injury or used to prepare you for sport or exercise. I use it on its own for maintenance, or as part of a wider treatment plan.

Stretches, techniques and advice to maintain correctional work and general ongoing maintenance
Not sure what's causing your pain? You don't need to pick a treatment. I'll assess you and recommend what suits your injury.
Can I just book this treatment?
You can, but most people leave it to me. Every session is 45 minutes and the same price, and I'll combine whichever methods your injury needs. You can always say no to any technique.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No. You can book directly. If I think you need a scan or a GP's opinion, I'll tell you.
What should I wear?
No specific clothing is required
Tell me roughly what's going on and I'll recommend the right treatment. I'll get back to you as soon as I'm out of clinic.
