“Don’t just leave it...TREAT IT!”

Jane has been in the Health and Fitness Industry for nearly 20 years. In addition to being a Sports Massage Therapist she is a qualified Gym and Aerobics Instructor.

Practising for nearly 7 years Jane knows that as well as helping to prevent injury, Sports massage can be the start to treating and relieving chronic long term muscle, ligament and posture problems. The path to recovery can be long but she is passionate that you should not just ‘leave it’ you should ‘treat it’ or it will get worse.

Consultations and treatments are very personal taking into account medical history, work activities, injuries and posture. A typical 1hr consultation will not only include massage but postural exercises, assisted stretches. If required it can also include exercises and stretches that you can do at home to assist and speed up rehabilitation.

Jane has important links with other therapy professionals so if she feels unable to help you or thinks that you would benefit from a further or alternative form of treatment she will advise you of this and refer you on if you wish.

Jane is a keen triathlete, and has competed and won at a number of distances and levels over the last 10 years, before which she played hockey for Lansdown Ladies 1st XI in the South West League and represented Gloucestershire. Most recently Jane competed, along with 3,300 men and women, in an Ironman 70.3 in Wiesbaden, Germany 70.3, finishing 15th (and top GB finisher) in her age group. Her plans for 2010 are to compete in Ironman UK in Bolton. She is a member of Tri Team Glos and has developed a particular interest in treating endurance athletes as she has a significant understanding in what it takes to keep a body functioning effectively whilst placing it under the stresses of training.
