What I do

Every session starts with a conversation about what's going on and what you want to get back to. From there I use whatever combination works, no fixed routines.

Remedial & sports massage

For pain, stiffness and injury. Desk-bound shoulders, a back that's seized up, heavy legs after a long run, or an old niggle that keeps coming back. I'll assess what's going on, treat it, and explain what I'm doing and why.

Therapeutic massage

Slower, calmer work for when life has been a lot. Time to switch off while your neck and shoulders get some proper attention.

Strength & rehab coaching

Exercise that fits your life, whether you're returning from injury or want to stay strong as you get older. Clear, simple plans with a reason behind every exercise.

Bone health

A special interest of mine. If you've been told you have osteopenia or osteoporosis, you've probably heard plenty about what not to do. I focus on what you can do: strength work, progressive loading and balance training that the evidence actually supports.

Since 2011, working out what bodies need

I'm Carole. Before massage I was an analyst programmer, and I still approach bodies the way I approached code: something's not working, what's causing it, what do we change and in what order. I've run 16 marathons and finished an Ironman, so I know what it's like to want to keep training and keep taking part as the years go on. Most of my clients aren't athletes. They're people who want to stay active, keep doing what they love at whatever level suits them, and build the strength and resilience to keep going for years to come. And I'll always tell you why I'm suggesting something, because it's based on the evidence, not just my opinion.
