Kirsten Williams is studying for a BTEC level 5 in Soft Tissue Therapy with Mel Cash at the London School of Sports Massage. As part of this course she needs to complete a number of soft tissue treatments in order to qualify. To help her achieve this we have agreed for Kirsten to attend the club to offer soft tissue massage for anyone who is interested.
The services she would be offering to members include
– sports massage
– postural assessment
– remedial massage
Techniques used will include neuromuscular technique, soft tissue release and muscle energy technique as well as more general massage.
Before treatment will commence a full case history will need to be taken and consent forms signed.
Kirsten will not be able to treat acute injuries so volunteers should wait at least 3-5 days post injury before having a treatment.
Initially Kirsten will be available on Thursday evenings for appointments from 7 until 9.15. Treatments will last around 40 mins. If there is demand she may also start running sessions on Tuesday evenings as well.
If members are interested in having a treatment if they could email Kirsten in advance on . Although she will be able to offer on the day treatments it will be easier to treat if she has appointments arranged.
These services will be offered free of charge from w/b 26 September.
