Unfurl Sports Massage

Unfurl specialises in functional massage treatments for sport and movement-related injuries, aches and pains, helping you move more freely.

Every body moves in different ways - we need a holistic and constructive approach.

I will always explain why I am using a particular massage technique, sharing accessible and relevant understanding of your body's anatomy and physiology.

My clients often say a greater understanding of their joints and how they move is a real long-lasting benefit of their massage.

Everyone belongs in sport

I'm Ronan, I'm a level 4 qualified sports massage therapist and I believe hands-on techniques are invaluable in building a stronger, mutually beneficial connection between body and mind.

Following personal experience of neurological and musculoskeletal injury, I decided to begin retraining as a physiotherapist in 2024. About to start my final year, I am so excited to be training in a field that has helped so many people better understand their bodies and how they move.

I'm a keen cyclist and climber, and my goal is to help you get back outside, doing what you love.

Services

Sports massage uses precisely targeted massage techniques to enhance soft tissue health, reduce tension, improve mobility and alleviate pain.

Each treatment will be tailored to you. I link many techniques together, depending on your needs and the goals we've discussed.

These techniques include:

  • Effleurage and lymphatic drainage
  • Petrissage
  • Tapotement
  • Deep friction techniques
  • Trigger pointing
  • Muscle energy techniques
  • Passive and dynamic stretching

If your symptoms are preventing you from activity or movement, sports massage can help.

Pricing

1 hour or 30 minute appointments are available.

A 1 hour appointment allows more time to work holistically in an area, employing a broader range of techniques and work on both left and right sides.

30 minutes will focus on one specific area, with targeted techniques to improve your symptoms.

My full rates are:

  • 1h £50
  • 30m £35

If you are on low income or unwaged, I offer a lower starting rate with an optional Pay as you Feel sliding scale:

  • 1h £30 +PAYF
  • 30m £20 +PAYF

No judgement or questions asked. Everyone belongs in sport.

Book

Appointments are available on Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 5pm.

Weekday appointments have more limited availability, as I balance massage clients with full-time study.
