Treatments
Maintenance for people who train, slow heavy work for the knots that have been there for years, twenty minutes at the race, a rehab block with a physio in reach, three sessions for people whose sport is a desk, and six timed to a training plan. Every one is priced by the minute.
01
The treatment most people book: firm, specific work on the muscles you use most, to keep you training through a block, undo a week of hills, or deal with the calf that has been "a bit tight" since March. Forty-five minutes is the usual; an hour if there are two areas; thirty for a top-up.
Thirty minutes £38, forty-five £50, an hour £65, ninety £90.
02
Slower and heavier than sports massage, for the chronic stuff: the shoulder that has been in a knot since 2019, the lower back that locks up every winter, the hips that sit all day. Forearms and elbows as well as hands, at a depth we agree on and keep checking. Forty-five minutes £50, an hour £65.
Forty-five minutes £50, an hour £65, ninety minutes £90.
03
Fast, light, warming work before a race and flushing, restorative work after it, under our gazebo at the Cardiff Half, the Bay 10K and twenty other events a year for £25 a go, or in the clinic in the days either side. We know what a race-week body needs and what it does not, which is deep work.
£25 for twenty minutes at an event, pre or post; book ahead on the day's list or queue.
04
Soft-tissue rehab for the strains, the tendon problems and the "it went in week eight" injuries that massage, loading and patience can fix: four forty-five-minute sessions over four to six weeks with a written plan, for £180. And for the things that are not ours, a letter to one of three physios we trust, and the work picked up again when they discharge you.
The rehab block: four forty-five-minute sessions, a written plan and the physio letter if one is needed, £180 (against £200 booked singly).
05
For the people whose sport is a laptop: three forty-five-minute sessions a fortnight apart on the neck, the shoulders, the chest and the hips that eight hours of sitting shortens, with a ten-minute look at how you actually sit (bring a photo) and the two drills that undo most of it. £135, against £150 booked singly.
The package: three forty-five-minute sessions a fortnight apart with the desk review, £135.
06
For people training for something: six forty-five-minute sessions timed to the training plan, with the heavy work in the big weeks, the light work in the taper and a flush the week after the race. £270 against £300 booked singly, for marathon and half-marathon blocks, sportives, triathlons and anyone who has entered something and is slightly frightened of it.
Six forty-five-minute sessions, £270, booked against your training plan and moved if the plan moves.
Every slot
What hurts, what you do all day, what you are training for, what you have tried. Then a squat, a lunge and a reach, to see how you move.
Ours to treat, or a physio's or a GP's. If it is not ours we say so, write the letter, and do not charge for the ten minutes.
On the two or three areas that matter, at a depth you can breathe through, checked as we go. Not neck to ankle lightly.
What we found, one stretch and one drill, written down, and whether to come back and when. Sometimes the answer is not for six weeks.
Forty-five minutes is £50 and the usual first booking: ten minutes of talking, thirty-five hands on, a stretch and a drill written down. Pick an hour on the book page up to two hours ahead, or ring the clinic and we find you one.
