Testimonials
Julie has developed a huge wealth of experience and has been a member of the International Sports Massage Team, working in conjunction with physiotherapists at prestigious events such as the Olympics, Paralympics and World Athletics Championships.
"I've been seeing Julie for pre event massage for over 20 years. Starting out with marathon running and frequent niggles, Julie has never failed to help me get to a start line race-ready. 7 years ago, with Julie's support, I transitioned to monthly ultra running which has warranted some proper body maintenance! I make sure I'm booked in before every event and I can unreservedly say that, no matter what aches I have, Julie has made sure I'm "fixed" to make every race an enjoyable one. Can't thank her enough!"

"I really benefit from a pre race sports massage a few days before a big event. It also helps my recovery from hard training sessions."

"In 2016, I took up playing competitive table tennis having not played sport for over 25 years. Sessions with Julie have been invaluable in allowing me to play 6 days per week. The treatment from Julie prevents minor niggles becoming injury issues and my movement around the table has improved as a consequence."

"When firm touch presses on soft tissue and knowingly finds the spot, just the very spot where pain is greatest, and presses deeper and deeper again; and then along the pathways, extending with continuous rhythm, upwards, downwards, extending, extending, easing, easing away all gathered tension, easing away with such knowing touch, again, again, easing, easing, again, again ... with such an understanding skill ... the resulting feeling is of wonderful relief, such grateful relief... Thank you, Julie!"
