Andrew Gage BSc (Hons) Sports Therapist and Acupuncturist
Andrew studied at the University of Bath and Twickenham, and benefits from 15 years experience in Sports Massage, and 4 years experience in Acupuncture.
He began his career in Sports Massage alone, and now uses Acupuncture, Electro Acupuncture and Kinesiology Taping along side massage as additional therapies, as he believes that they help accelerate and complement the treatment he provides.
Sports massage involves the manipulation of deep layers of tissue in the body, including the fascia and other supportive tissue that make up the muscles and joints.
Massages have been used for many years across the world to lower both physical and psychological stress, ease muscle tension, and rehabilitate injury increasing flexibility and reducing pain – and research continues to show that whether used alone or in conjunction with other treatments, Sports Massage is an effective way to help treat common conditions like arthritis, anxiety and lower back pain.
Not only are they relaxing, but they also help lengthen and release muscles that regularly feel tense and get stuck in uncomfortable holding positions.
So whether you are an athlete placing high demand on your body, or recovering from an injury or illness or just a bit achey, sports massage will undoubtedly have some benefits to offer you.
Andrew provides a mobile therapy service, and can cater for your requirements in the comfort of your own home… So whether you are looking for post-operative rehabilitation, need to recover rapidly from injury, or simply wish to soften aches and pains, Andrew will employ the latest techniques and equipment to rehabilitate your body back to full fitness.
