Sports Massage Therapy/Remedial Massage

Sports Massage Therapy will benefit everyone regardless of age and ability, but has a focus on athletes and active people, concentrating on the stress they may place on their bodies. Peer is trained in applying techniques to help athletes avoid injuries, to aid recovery following an event, as well as being part of pre-event training programme to improve overall event performance.


Remedial Massage is a complementary therapy that aims to treat muscles that are damaged, knotted, tense or immobile. It is useful for many problems that affect the muscles, tendons or bones and can address a number of health problems. This is great for any age or ability. The goal is to make you feel better and move better.



Bio-mechanical Analysis 
This will give us an idea of how you move. It will tell us, and show us, how the old injuries,surgery or bad habits are affecting the way you run or walk. Armed with this knowledge we will then look at what needs to be improved.

Old injuries or bad habits can lead to less efficient ways of moving. Repeating poor movement patterns over months or years can have a big impact on muscles, tendons and joints, and possibly lead to further injury.

An insufficient running or walking style is likely to have an effect on your speed, pace and comfort.

After the first session you will have an idea of what can be improved so that you move better.  Further coaching sessions  will be suggested so we can improve the way you move.

Injury Rehabilitation Sessions 
If you suffer from old injuries or pains, that prevent you from doing sport or activities you enjoy, then this session could help you. We look at your movement and find a way to change your movement pattern. Certain techniques are used to stimulate the nervous system and create new neuro-pathways to improve and correct movement patterns. These new patterns will be repeated, with low weight or resistance, until improvement is achieved.


Medical Acupuncture

Acupuncture needles are used to alleviate your trigger points. When dry needling is applied to your muscles and tissues, it can decrease tightness, increase blood flow and reduce local and referred pain. Peer uses acupuncture needles that don't contain any kind of medication. This is why the technique is called “dry needling".

Massage for Cancer Patients
Cancer Massage is a specialised, therapeutic approach designed to support people who are living with cancer, recovering from treatment, or adjusting after remission. It is a gentle, adaptable form of massage that prioritises safety, comfort, and the unique needs of each individual.

This type of massage is based on the principles taught in Susan Findlay’s oncology massage  training, which emphasises:

Clinical understanding of how cancer and its treatments affect the body

Safe, evidence‑informed techniques that avoid strain, pressure, or risk

Individualised care, adapting every session to your energy levels, symptoms, and medical history

A supportive, nurturing environment where your wellbeing is the focus

Cancer Massage does not aim to “treat” cancer. Instead, it helps ease the physical and emotional side effects of treatment. Clients often report benefits such as:

  • Reduced anxiety and stress
  • Improved sleep and relaxation
  • Relief from muscle tension and discomfort
  • Support with fatigue
  • A greater sense of wellbeing and connection

Every session is tailored to what your body needs on the day. Whether you are undergoing treatment, recovering, or living beyond cancer, Cancer Massage offers safe, compassionate

support to help you feel more at ease in your body.

TESTIMONIALS

Dan M

Unequivocally the best person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting for massage, and any kind of pain relief. I've had years of experience from rugby, and elite ski racing. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

I have been going to Peer for several years whenever I find myself in pain… he really is the best. Not only is he a skilled therapist, he also is a lovely person, warm, positive, helpful. I can’t recommend him highly enough, and he’s never asked me to leave a review!

Dan L

Recommended by a friend, in less than an hour Peer has done a frankly magical job relieving my very painful neck.  He is thoughtful, insightful and really brings experience to bear on solving the problem.  I am so pleased to have found him!
