Sports / Kinesiology Taping Course - ProActive July 2017
I have had many sports massages over the years by different therapists and found that the active ones were the best because they can relate to injuries and other challenges that athletes go through. When the therapist is a runner or active in some sport then there can be an understanding of what the client is experiencing both physically and emotionally.
As a keen runner, I know what it’s like when your body feels tired and your muscles are aching but you need to do what you can for quick recovery for your next training session. Sports Massage can play a massive part in speeding up your muscle recovery and getting you ready for your next session.
I’ve been running since 2011 and have completed 14 marathons so far (fastest time in Florence marathon I ran 2 hours 54 minutes). And over 50 half marathons (fastest time of 1 hour 18 min at Cardiff Half Marathon), have come 2nd Female (2019) and 3rd Female 2021) in the Brighton Half Marathon.
