Massage

Personal Best offers a wide range of massage techniques to help rehabilitate, strengthen and eradicate muscular aches and pains.

Our Sports and Remedial massage involves the use of massage and advanced soft tissue techniques in conjunction with exercise advice for the treatment, rehabilitation and management of musculoskeletal problems.

Although our Sports and massage therapists may treat  aches and pains and traumas caused by sport, the majority of disorders we treat are down to work, just general activity and/or posture, possibly the biggest culprit of all! Our treatments will always take into consideration the source of the problem which often is far away from the site of pain.

Following assessment and treatment, the practitioner will take the client through an exercise programme, if necessary, to be followed at home.
​
In some cases the therapist may advise referral to our Chiropractic Clinic for further treatment, or to our personal training studio where one of our experienced trainers will take the client through an individually tailored Core Rehabilitation programme.

​Effective in the treatment and management of:

• Neck problems
• Headaches
• Arthritic conditions
• Knee problems
• Repetitive Strain Injuries
• Sporting or occupational
• Postural imbalances
• General Maintenance of Musculoskeletal Imbalances

Sports massage is extremely effective in relaxing tight muscles and breaking up adhesions or knots in muscle fibres. It is based on the principle that direct techniques can reduce pain, enhance healing and restore and/or maintain optimum muscle function.

Not only have Carl and the team at Personal Best helped us keep in shape, they have also made the whole process fun. And until I found PB I never associated gyms with fun. Indeed I hated them, which is why I never managed to stick with any fitness regime for more than a few months. The fact that we are still training at PB ten years after we first met Carl says it all really.
