Hi, I'm Emily!
I am a professional, fully qualified and insured mobile soft tissue massage therapist based in Sonning Common. I also cover all the surrounding areas in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire, such as Marlow, High Wycombe, Maidenhead, Reading, Caversham and Wallingford.
I studied Thai Massage in Chiang Mai, Thailand, before qualifying with a Level 5 Diploma in Soft Tissue Therapy from the Oxford School of Sports Massage. Since then, I have worked with the world renowned Leander Rowing Club, Henley Cricket Club and Crossfit Wycombe as well as treating many private clients who vary in size, shape, fitness and have a range of issues. This has given me in-depth experience and knowledge of soft tissue therapy treatments which I have further developed by undertaking a number of Clinical Professional Development (CPD) courses, including:
- Acupuncture
- Pregnancy Massage
- First Aid
Having rowed at a high level for 7 years and completed the UK Ironman in 2011 I continue to train everyday and therefore understand the aches and pains resulting from training.
I work to improve the quality of the soft tissues within the body. Soft tissue massage causes an increase in blood supply which releases tension, flushes through lactic acid and realigns scar tissue. I work to correct imbalances built up through training and everyday activities, allowing my patients greater freedom of movement and consequently, better quality of life.
