Pre-race sports massage can help loosen tight muscles and get your legs feeling ready for race day. Post-race massage can help reduce soreness and speed up recovery.🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏃‍➡️

Availability is limited, especially after the London Marathon, so don’t forget to book early.

And if you spot a baby head making a cameo in the photo… yes, we noticed it too! 👶😄
Don’t worry, all sports massages are strictly baby-free during treatment.

🦵 Running myth:
You shouldn’t run if you have knee pain.

In reality, many people can continue running with the right load management and rehabilitation.

Understanding the cause of the pain is the important part.

If something doesn’t feel quite right, getting it assessed early can help you stay active.

Whether you’re chasing a parkrun PB, heading into the final long runs before your marathon, or just starting out on a new training plan to reach your goals.

Consistency beats perfection. Show up, put the work in, and trust the process.

Good luck to everyone getting out there this weekend 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

And a special good luck to all those taking part in the Ashby 20 tomorrow, enjoy it and run well!

A common thing we see in clinic…

Runners ignoring small ni**les for weeks because they’re worried about missing training.

Ironically, this is often what turns a small problem into a bigger one.

Getting something checked early is usually the fastest way back to doing what you enjoy.

Does this sound familiar?

You start a run and your calf feels tight.
After 5–10 minutes it loosens up and feels fine.
But the next morning it’s stiff again.

This is something we see quite often in runners.

Getting it checked early can often stop a small ni**le becoming a bigger problem.

Bank heist yesterday 🥷💰
Tried to be inconspicuous but my name on the race number gave me away 😎
Thanks for all the support! 💛

Legs are a bit sore, so I’m cashing in on a last-minute massage 💆‍♀️💰

Being married to a physio doesn’t mean freebies, apparently! 😅

Huge well done to everyone who raced this morning! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️💨

Great atmosphere, great efforts… and a course that we will absolutely not be discussing today 👀

Special shout out to Leonie who, despite the very sensible question from her 4-year-old this morning “Why are you running if you’ve lost your voice?” still went out and finished 3rd female 🥉👏

Well done on all those PBs… super fast course despite the wind hey?! 😭😅

If your legs are feeling it after this morning’s… adventure… don’t forget to book in for a post-race sports massage to help speed up recovery! 💆‍♂️

Marathon runners — you’re probably in the final big weeks of training before taper 👀🏃‍♀️

High mileage and long runs can leave legs feeling heavy and fatigued 🦵

Evidence shows sports massage can help reduce muscle soreness, support recovery between sessions, and improve short-term flexibility — all helpful when training load is high.

If your legs are starting to feel the miles, it might be time to give them a bit of extra care before race day 💆‍♂️

Sports massage appointments available over the next few weeks — message to book 📩

Running through pain isn’t dedication ⚠️ It’s usually a warning sign.

Excessive fatigue and poor recovery between runs shouldn’t be accepted as part of the process.

They’re signals your body isn’t coping.

Dropping training volume or intensity temporarily can help you keep moving forwards 🏃‍♂️➡️

Training harder and doing more only works if your body is ready for it 💪

Book a running-focused physio assessment and let’s make sure your body and training align
