Questions, answered
Everything you might want to know before your first session. Still not sure? Just send me a message, I'm happy to help.
Which session should I book?
Sports massage is priced by length. If you have one specific niggle and limited time, a 30-minute session is ideal. For chronic tension or two to three areas, most people choose 60 minutes. For full-body recovery, book 90 minutes. Every session is tailored, so a gentler, more relaxing treatment is always an option too. See it all on the sports massage page, or message me and I will help you choose.
Where are you based?
I treat from Old School Jim's in Wellington, Telford (TF1 1NE), a proper strength-and-conditioning gym with easy parking nearby. Appointments run Tuesday to Saturday.
Do you offer personal training and online coaching?
Yes. Alongside massage I offer one-to-one personal training in the gym and online coaching wherever you are. It works brilliantly alongside treatment to keep niggles from coming back. Book a free intro call to talk it through.
Is sports massage painful?
Sports massage can involve firm, focused pressure, and some areas may feel tender, but it should never be more than you are comfortable with. I check in with you throughout and adjust the pressure to suit you. If you would prefer a lighter, more relaxing treatment, just say and I will tailor the session.
Can massage help with period pain?
Yes. Within any session I can focus on gentle, nurturing techniques for the lower back and abdomen to ease cramps, lower-back tension and bloating, improve circulation, and help you feel more comfortable and grounded through your cycle. Just mention it when you book or drop me a message.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. During treatment you will be professionally draped with towels at all times, with only the area being worked on exposed, so you stay warm and comfortable throughout. There is more in the first-session guide.
How do I book?
The quickest way is to book online: choose your session and time, and you are set. If you cannot see a slot that works, send me a message or a WhatsApp and I will be in touch.
What is your cancellation policy?
I ask for at least 48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule, so the time can be offered to someone else. Less than 48 hours' notice may incur a 50% charge, and less than 24 hours' notice or a missed appointment will be charged in full. Online bookings need a small non-refundable deposit to secure the slot. Full details are on the sickness and cancellation policy page.
Still have a question?
Send me a message and I'll get back to you, usually within a day or two.
