SPORTS MASSAGE

As a runner or fitness enthusiast sports massage plays an important role in injury prevention. Sports massage can be used before, during and after exercise.  If you suffer from fatigue, muscle tension or tightness sports massage is an excellent way of helping to alleviate symptoms and promote flexility and an increased range of motion. Sports massage is recognised both with professional athletes and amateurs.

Massages are especially beneficial to help break down and remove minor injuries due to overexertion and or over use associated with running or general fitness. Regular sports massage can help you prepare better for your next session so you are in peak condition to perform and work out at your very best this ensuring you get the best results possible and help you reach your goals and aims.

I have been working as a sports massage for a number of years, working with runners of varying abilities and sportsmen from different sports. Having regular sports massage is perfect for those looking to take a proactive, rather than reactive approach to injury management and can be booked either as a one off session or block booking.

Sessions are located either at Benchmark gym or from my home in a comfortable and private location. Please message for more information.

Quick reminder of the main benefits of Sports Massage:

Reduces muscle soreness, reduces muscle fatigue, reduces muscle tension, reduces muscle inflammation, improves muscle flexibility, increased muscle recovery time and an increased feel good factor after a hard session.

Sports Massage can also help with certain injuries and conditions such as arthritis, muscle tightness and returning from serious injuries.

    Sophie Mellor The Personal Trainer

    Initially qualifying as a personal trainer in 2010 I have worked in the fitness industry ever since as well as competing as a runner. Through my background as an athlete I have focused on working as a strength and conditioning coach with runners helping to reduce their risk of injury and improve their speed.

    Build stronger, faster runners and prevent injury.

    In all sports we experience highs and lows and after a catalogue of injuries, (stress fracture, torn plantar fascia, torn calf) and finally undergoing knee surgery in 2018 I have spent hours in the gym rehabbing and improving my general conditioning. Often it’s through the lows that we learn more. I have worked with some of the UK’s leading physiotherapists and strength coaches including Chris Bramah and have learnt so much more about my body and what it takes to deal both mentally and physically with injuries. I want to make the most of these experiences helping others avoid the same issues I’ve had and ultimately helping runners become stronger and faster.

    Having moved to the Stockport area in 2016 having re-located from Liverpool I joined the team at Benchmark in Stockport and have since developed a great understanding and knowledge of what it takes to help transform peoples lives through fitness. I currently lead FITT classes and offer support at the lifting classes working with a range of clients.
