IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation) and Gua Sha are techniques that use specialised tools to gently work through tight or restricted soft tissue. They help to reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, break down adhesions (knots), and support the body’s natural healing process.
Many clients find these treatments helpful for improving mobility, easing pain, and speeding up recovery from injuries or intense training.
These techniques can be especially effective for chronic tightness, scar tissue, and stubborn muscle restrictions that don’t always respond to massage alone.
If you’ve got an area that always feels tight, stiff, or “stuck”, IASTM / Gua Sha can be a game changer ✨✨✨

Did you know over 55% of the followers on our pages are female?

Andys Man Club isn’t just about the men who walk through the door on a Monday night.

Behind all of them is a partner, mum, sister, friend or colleague quietly encouraging them to take that first step. Sometimes it’s a nudge. Sometimes it’s a straight conversation. Sometimes it’s just “I’ll come with you and wait outside”.

That support matters more than you might think.
If you’re one of the women backing the men in your life, thank you.

You’re part of this too.

And if there’s a man you care about who might be struggling, have the conversation. Share the page. Let him know Monday at 7pm Downies wynd Annan there is a club here if he needs it.

It’s okay to talk. Sometimes he just needs to hear it from you first.

✨✨Cupping Crater ✨✨

Cupping is a useful tool that can show a densification in the underlying tissue.

Densifications can cause:
✨ pain
✨ decreased flexibility
✨ limit range of movement of tissues & muscles.
With the use of cups and movement (Myofascial decompression) it can help to lift and separate the skin from the muscles and fascial layers to release tension, promote blood circulation and improve range of motion.

This was a client of mine that suffered from lower back issues.

⚡️⚡️ Plantar Fasciitis ⚡️⚡️

Have had some great feedback on recent treatments for Plantar Fasciitis. When working the foot you also want to look at the superficial back line of fascia that runs from the feet to the back of the head. You need to treat the feet, ankles, calves, glutes and erector spinae muscles.
Having introduced the heated and vibration mini scraper from along with their electric pulsating cups has increased the effectiveness of this treatment. Any queries please drop me a message 🦶🦶

New dynamic electric cupping has been a great new addition in my treatment room today. Offering a rhythmic suction and release which boosts circulation to the area maximising pain relief, decompression and blood flow. Red light therapy boosts your energy producing cells to recover faster from fatigue or injury.
Each treatment can be tailored to your own comfort level. There are 5 suction modes and 5 intensities.
Can be used alone or together with traditional cupping for a complete treatment.
