Sports massage is for everyone! Whether you are into sports or not, it is an efficient way to address soft tissues conditions and give you a better understanding of how your body works, helping you in your daily life.
Why sports massage: to relieve general and specific tension, to assist rehabilitation, to treat injuries whether recent or chronic, to improve posture, flexibility and joint functionality, to prepare for a competition or a performance, to assist muscle recovery after an event, to boost energy levels,
Deep tissue massage helps relieving tensions, contracted areas such as a stiff neck and upper back, low back pain, leg muscle tightness, and sore shoulders. It addresses chronic aches and pain. I will adapt the pressure to your needs.
Remedial means I can work with injuries at different stages of recovery and with chronic pain. I also assist with posture and postural imbalances. I can modify and adapt to various conditions you may have (diabetes, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis…).
Please get in touch beforehand if you suffer from any conditions so we can discuss in which way it affects you and how to best proceed to the treatment. In certain circumstances I may ask a referral letter from your GP.
Pregnancy massage is both beneficial for the mum and the baby. It can have a very relaxing and soothing effect, as well as targeting some sensitive areas with care. Some mums also come because of back, neck or shoulder pain, or increased stress levels.
If you have any complications it is important you tell me before the massage and I may ask to get in touch with your GP or have a referral letter.
Post-natal massage can be done especially to help recover after the pregnancy and help with scar tissue, blood circulation, lymphatic flow, and enhancing the mood. Please consult your doctor prior to booking to make sure there are no contra-indication to massage.

I have a holistic approach and will undertake a thorough assessment to understand the causes of the presenting condition.
I will ask about medical history and past injuries, do a postural assessment and enquire about your lifestyle.
We will decide on priorities and goals to focus on for the session and for the possible next series of treatments.
The treatment will be carried out with lotion or oil applied on the skin, and through the towel using various techniques. I will always ask feedbacks about comfort and pain levels. The treatment is for you to feel comfortable and happy with.
At the end of the treatment I will reassess and give some homecare advice relevant to your condition.
‘I strongly recommend Marie for thoroughly understanding the mechanics of the human body and getting to know you from an holistic perspective. She was able to release the tension from my back, finding exactly the muscles that were creating the pain and applying different techniques to release the tension. Needless to say she is super-professional and the following morning I woke up, for the first time in a long time, pain-free. Thanks Marie.’ – Simona
‘I have had a few treatments from Marie and I am so so happy that I’ve found someone who understands the body well enough, both intuitively and anatomically, to be able to help me with my shoulder injury. She is a great therapist, professional, very friendly and easy to talk to. She has a passion for the work she does and has a genuine interest in helping people. She also gives great yoga classes, which I highly recommend. Thank you Marie!’ Justin
‘I received a massage the week after a tough house moving when my body was deeply exhausted; plus I had an ankle injury following a climbing accident.
Marie was absolutely amazing, highly professional and understanding of my body needs.
After the massage I felt rejuvenated and I would definitely recommend it to anybody.’- Laura
