Izzy Greaves Sports Therapy in St John’s, Worcester, offers sports massage for people experiencing muscular tightness, pain or restrictions in movement. Appointments are available for both people who exercise and those whose discomfort relates to everyday demands, such as desk work, long commutes or physical jobs. Massage sessions focus on the areas troubling the individual, with a choice of 45-minute or one-hour appointments.
Izzy holds a degree in Sports Therapy from Worcester University and a master’s degree in Sports Rehabilitation from Middlesex University. The practice states that all members of its team are graduate sports therapists and members of the Society of Sports Therapists. Its team’s experience includes work with professional rugby clubs Worcester Warriors and Wasps, international cricket teams including Australia, and ballet dancers. Alongside her sporting work, Izzy has a particular interest in helping people with lower back and hip difficulties, combining soft tissue treatment with specific rehabilitation programmes.
Sports massage at Izzy Greaves Sports Therapy uses hands-on techniques such as kneading, friction and sustained pressure on areas of muscle tightness. The practice describes the aim as easing tension and discomfort, with the session adapted to the patient’s areas of pain or restricted movement. Patients do not need to be athletes or regular exercisers to book this service.
For someone with a recent injury or an ongoing problem that needs further investigation, the practice also offers an injury assessment. This includes assessment, treatment and a rehabilitation plan. Depending on the individual’s needs, sports therapy care may involve massage, joint mobilisation, acupuncture, ultrasound therapy or kinesiology taping, alongside advice and exercises. Follow-up injury appointments include a review of symptoms, any necessary changes to the rehabilitation programme and further treatment. This may be useful for someone looking for support that extends beyond a massage appointment to include a clearer plan for their recovery.
Appointments can be arranged through the practice’s online booking system, and payment is accepted after treatment by cash or online bank transfer.
