Sports massage is a focused, firm form of soft tissue work aimed at muscle tension and recovery. It uses targeted pressure on specific areas, so each session is shaped around what your body needs on the day.
Sports massage suits anyone with muscle tension to work through. Some clients train regularly, while others are managing the demands of a desk job or a busy week on their feet. If you’re unsure, get in touch and we’ll talk it through.
We begin with a conversation about your goals, any injuries and your health history, then agree a plan for your session together. You’ll be comfortably draped throughout, and you can ask us to adjust the pressure at any point. For a full walkthrough of your first visit, from the health form to aftercare, head to our services page.
You can wear anything. Something loose, comfortable and easy to remove works best.
Whichever you choose, a drape is used throughout your session, with only the area being treated uncovered. This keeps you comfortable and covered at all times, and your dignity and privacy come first.
Yes, always. We’ll start at a level that suits you, then adjust as we go. Some areas may feel intense for a moment before they ease, and you can ask for lighter or firmer pressure at any point. Your feedback shapes the session.
Targeted Sports Massage is 45 minutes at £45. Full Sports Massage is 60 minutes at £60. Injury Assessment, Treatment and Rehab Support is 75 minutes at £75. If you’d like regular sessions, TERES Maintenance blocks are discounted: 10% off for 4 sessions, 12% off for 6, and 15% off for 8.
That depends on your needs and what you’re working towards. Many clients come every few weeks for maintenance, while a specific problem may call for closer spacing at first. We’ll recommend a schedule after your first session.
Arrive hydrated and avoid a large meal beforehand. Afterwards, we ask that you don’t train for the rest of the day, as your muscles need time to settle, and focus on hydrating well with plenty of water. Mild soreness for a day or two is normal.
Not always. Some conditions, such as fever, blood clots or certain skin conditions, mean massage should wait or be adapted. You’ll complete a short health form before treatment, and if we have any concerns we’ll suggest speaking to your GP first.
Cancellations and Rescheduling
We know life doesn’t always go to plan, and we are happy to help you move or cancel an appointment whenever we can. Each session is time held just for you, so we ask for as much notice as possible.
48 hours or more notice
You can cancel or reschedule free of charge, and any payment you have made will be refunded in full.
Between 24 and 48 hours notice
We will refund 50% of the appointment fee.
Less than 24 hours notice, or a missed appointment
The full appointment fee will be charged, as it is usually too late to offer your time to someone else.
Late arrivals
Appointments run to their booked finish time so that every client receives the same care and the next person is not kept waiting. If you arrive late, your session will end at the scheduled time and the full fee still applies. If you are running behind, please message us as soon as you can and we will let you know what we are able to fit in.
If something unavoidable comes up
We understand that genuine emergencies and illness can happen, and we will always listen. If something unavoidable has come up, please let us know as soon as possible. Where we are able to, we may rebook your session or adjust the fee. This is offered at our discretion and is considered individually, so it may not apply if late cancellations happen more than once.
How to cancel or reschedule
You can cancel or rebook through your booking confirmation email, or contact us directly by email, phone or WhatsApp. Messages sent outside working hours are counted from the time we receive them.
TERES Maintenance blocks
Sessions within a block follow the same notice times. A session cancelled late may be counted as used.
You can book using the book now button at the top of the page. If you have any problems with booking, you can give us a call, message on WhatsApp, or use the contact form on this site. You should hear back within 24 hours.
