About massage matters
A Therapist Who Cares
I'm a graduate of the Western School of Massage in Glasgow, the only massage school in the UK that has a university accredited qualification. As a fully qualified massage therapist I can offer Massage, Hot Stones Massage and On Site Seated Acupressure massage. I am also a member of the Scottish Manual Therapist Organisation (SMTO).
I have been involved in sports and mainly athletics for over 40 years initially as an athlete and then moving onto becoming a level 2 British Athletics Coach.
I am passionate about health and fitness and trained as a massage therapist after realising the benefits of massage and how I could help and support others in their own health and fitness journey. I am committed to continuous development always looking to develop new skills and techniques.
