Welcome to Zöe Foster Sports Massage

You don't have to be a pro athlete to get the benefits of a sports massage.

Whether you are a weekend gardener or an amateur athlete, you can benefit from regular massage to help prevent the build up of toxins in the body that are created daily through activity.

Zöe will use a combination of Sports Massage and Bamboo Massage to break up adhesions. She says, "Massage works to align the different layers of tissue, treating the tendons, tissues and fascia as well as the muscles to release tension and provide pain relief."

What You Should Look For When Choosing Your Sports Therapist

If you're looking to have a sports massage for the first time, the session will be quite different to a Swedish or beauty type massage.

Before treating your presenting problem your sports therapist, will ask about you as a person, what job you do, what hobbies you have, are you active or non active.

Understanding your lifestyle is usually a big clue to finding a solution to the presenting problem for you. All treatments will be “tailored to you” much as you would expect from a physiotherapist or osteopath to do.

You will also be advised if you require more than one session.

Sports Massage After-care

Zöe feels that aftercare is equally important as the actual massage therapy session itself, as often there is a simple fix - a stretch that you can do daily to address a weakness.

She says, "I get a good understanding of what has potentially caused your symptoms during the sports massage session, and often a yoga stretch is the solution".

For example, if you sit at a desk all day, you will need a counter pose to stretch out the muscles. A counterpose is a term used in yoga, and it is a posture that helps neutralise the body after a particular pose.

“I often see clients when they have reached their lowest ebb, when an injury has completely disabilitated them.

I get it...

We all push-on when sometimes we need to rest. I will work with you to improve the symptoms, and investigate the origin. I then suggest re-habilitation stretches which you can do at home to ensure wellness.
