Client Testimonial: Russell Golding

To whom it may concern,

I recently completed a very successful charity climb to the summit of Kilimanjaro. This despite injuring myself 4 months before I was due to leave for the climb. I managed to injure my knee playing football which resulted in tearing the ligaments and muscles surrounding my knee and leaving me hobbling for almost 6 weeks.

Prior to my Kilimanjaro climb I went to see Carolyn to see if she could eradicate the last few muscular problems that I was experiencing. Following 4 months of recovery from my injury, my knee felt good, but the excessive strain that I'd clearly been placing on my other muscles and joints had taken their toll. After some initial questions, Carolyn was able to quickly pin point the problem areas and was able to effectively address them within one massage session.

In my opinion, Carolyn is a very professional and competent therapist, who certainly knows her stuff. I will continue to use her services and i would gladly recommend Carolyn to any of my own friends or business contacts in the future.

Carolyn, Thanks for making the climb that little bit easier!

Yours sincerely,

Russell Golding

What are some of the benefits of getting regular massage?

Well, it can help keep your muscles and connective tissue loosened up to prevent future injuries. This is especially helpful for very active, sporty people. For athletes, we want to spend our time playing our sport, not sitting on the sidelines with an injury. Keeping your muscles loose can prevent you from pulling a muscle.

It can also be instrumental in the recovery period of a muscular injury. When in doubt, please ask me or another professional in the field if massage is right for your injury. It's not suitable for everything, but it can really help with muscle damage.

Post surgery, your muscles will be behaving strangely. The ones that were cut into will be extremely weak, and physio will be needed for that. Other muscles will be doing the work, then of the weakened ones, thereby fatiguing and tightening up muscles that you usually don't have problems with. Also, once the inflammation has been significantly reduced and the doctor clears you for massage, it can be very useful to help the muscles that were cut into recover from their trauma.

Certain types of medical conditions can also be greatly helped from massage. Types like MS and others that tighten muscles are key for massage.

Sports Massage in Cambridge City Centre

Hello all,

Just a quick reminder to everyone who is interested in getting a sports massage and lives in or around Cambridge that I have been in the field for almost 14 years now.

What is "sports massage?"

You do not have to be an athlete or even sporty to benefit from a sports massage. Basically what it means is that you come to me with a specific pain in a specific area, and I do my best to sort it out for you. It's a generic term for a massage to get rid of pain, instead of the lighter, fru fru, or general full body massage.

That in mind, I have worked with athletes of all levels and abilities, and from a huge variety of sports fields. I myself used to be a triathlete, now am an avid swimmer and runner. So I know well the aches and pains of training hard and injury.

Please contact me if you have any questions or to book yourself an appointment. I'm located in Cambridge city centre.
