LT Sports Therapy

I started my journey after qualifying as a VTCT Level 4 Sports Massage Therapist in 2016.

Loughborough based sports therapist, offering sports injury advice and rehabilitation, soft tissue therapy, fire-cupping, acupuncture, kinesiology taping, pregnancy massage and manual lymphatic drainage massage. I soon realised that this was my passion and went on to study a degree in Sport and Exercise therapy, qualifying as a Sports Therapist in 2022. I am passionate about musculoskeletal injuries and how the body repairs itself with manual therapy, exercise and nutrition aiding this process. Sports Therapy is an aspect of healthcare that is specifically concerned with the prevention of injury and the rehabilitation of the patient back to optimum levels of functional, occupational and sports specific fitness, regardless of age and ability. As a Sports Therapist I have the knowledge, skills and ability to:

- utilise sports and exercise principles to optimise performance, preparation and injury prevention programmes
- provide the immediate care of injuries and basic life support in a recreational, training, occupational & competitive environment
- assess, treat, rehabilitate and, where and if appropriate, refer on for specialist advice and intervention.
- provide appropriate soft tissue interventions in a sport & exercise context
plan and implement appropriate rehabilitation and return to training/work programmes

I have worked with elite athletes, attended sporting events and provided pre and post sports massage and provided pitch-side first aid at rugby matches. My services include:
- sports injury advice/treatment
- sports massage
- soft tissue therapy
- fire-cupping
- acupuncture for sports injuries
- kinesiology taping and sport taping
- pregnancy massage
- manual lymphatic drainage massage

If you are experiencing muscle spasm, tension or pain, are in training for a particular sporting event, or simply want to relieve those aches and pains then contact me to book in for a treatment

A combination of cupping and deep tissue massage were used on this regular gym goer to treat ongoing shoulder pain.

Cupping is an alternative therapy where suction cups are placed on the skin to create a vacuum, drawing the skin and muscle layers upward to decompress tissues. This technique increases blood flow, helps relieve muscle tension, reduces inflammation, and promotes healing.
 Benefits & Uses
* Pain Relief: Helps to reduce pain by relaxing tight muscles and easing tension.
* Reduced Inflammation: Increases blood flow and stimulates lymphatic drainage, which can help clear inflammation from an area.
* Improved Mobility: Loosens tight muscles and connective tissues that can restrict movement.
* Faster Recovery: Promotes the delivery of nutrient-rich blood to injured tissues, aiding in recovery.
* Relaxation: Many people find cupping to be a relaxing experience.

Cupping marks as shown are temporary, painless marks that resemble bruises. These are normal and should fade within a few days to a week. The colour of these marks can indicate the condition of the treated area. For example red or pink suggest good blood flow whereas purple can indicate stagnant blood or blockages.

Osteoarthritis of the knee is a progressive joint condition causing pain, stiffness, and swelling as the protective cartilage between the thigh and shin bones wears away, leading to bone changes, inflammation, and reduced movement.
Common symptoms include pain with activity, stiffness after rest, joint instability, and a grinding or creaking sound in the knee. Management strategies often focus on exercise to strengthen surrounding muscles and improve flexibility, weight management, and potentially medical interventions like physical therapy or pain relievers to alleviate symptoms.
If joint pain or stiffness is affecting your life, I’m here to help. With a wealth of experience in pre operative and post operative rehab please contact me to see how I can help you get back to doing the things you enjoy.

Manual lymphatic drainage is a gentle massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system to help drain excess fluid and remove excess waste from the body.
MLD is recommended for lymphoedema, helping to manage swelling after surgery or injury. It is also beneficial for some skin disorders, headaches, digestive issues and is also used alongside weight loss and liposuction.
If this is a treatment that could benefit you, why not contact me for more information.

Acupuncture for right mid thoracic and upper traps. This client has been holding a lot of tension in these areas and has found it challenging to relax and switch off.
We tried acupuncture during our session as it has shown to induce local and general relaxation, promote general well-being whilst facilitating the healing process. The client reported they felt relaxed post treatment and had overcome their needle phobia.
