Sports Massage
Emma Buchanan – Professional Fitness
II’ve been doing deep tissue sports massage for over 5 years. It’s a type of massage therapy which using deep tissue techniques, reduces muscular tension, discomfort and pain.
Sports massage is great for a number of reasons:
- Reduction in muscle tension, muscular pain and discomfort
- Increased range of motion, leading to enhanced performance.
- Decreased muscle stiffness and soreness after exercise or physical activity
- Reduced recovery time post injury
- Increased levels of relaxation and reduction in physical and psychological stress levels
- Aids sleep quantity and quality.
These benefits are largely the result of an increase in local blood circulation which helps to flush out chemical irritants and waste products which have stored up in your muscle. At the same time, fresh blood flow increases oxygen and nutrient content within the muscle. This in turn can help with muscle repair and leads to a reduction in muscle tension.

Although people who exercise or do sport do benefit from sports massage, this method of massage isn’t restricted to sports participants it can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions including:
- Muscular and joint injuries such as sprains and strains
- Postural related pain
- Headaches
- Whiplash
- Golfers and tennis elbow
- Repetitive strain injuries
- Back pain
Typically, sports massage techniques are fast-paced and incorporate stretching and compression movements. I use a variety of deep tissue techniques throughout a treatment which involve longitudinal stripping, friction techniques, tapotement and muscle energy techniques such as PNF stretching, active movement and trigger point compression.

Can't rate Emma highly enough for taking my training to the next level and helping me achieve times and competitive results beyond my expectations... if only I was that fit now!

My partner and I have been training with Emma for 3 years now and love it. I've lost 3 stone so far (still on the journey) and after 10 years of little or no activity due to working long hours and young kids, I now make exercise a priority for our whole family. I haven't been this fit or this size since I was in my teens.
Emma has helped me really push my boundaries and achieve things I would never have believed I could do including push ups! Having that support and accountability has stopped me from giving up particularly in lockdown. I trust her completely and when I damaged my back last year she tailored our training so I could keep training.
In addition to my PT sessions with Emma I also go to her HIIT classes. It's amazing what you can achieve in only 30 minutes. Doing it on Zoom in the living room often with my kids, has helped us all keep fitter even during lockdown.

I joined Emma's fitness classes on zoom during the first lockdown in March. I cannot believe the changes in my body in such a short period of time; I've toned up and my clothes are fitting more comfortably. The classes are really encouraging and even though Emma works you hard, I love the feeling I have after the class - happy hormones definitely kick in and I feel more motivated for the rest of my day.
Emma's classes are the best classes I've been to and love that I can join in on zoom given that I'm down near London and can't get to her face to face classes - they beat the classes at my local gym hands down.
Definitely recommend Emma's classes 👍

Emma is an excellent PT. My experience is always very positive and I look forward to our sessions. Emma is someone who gives you genuine encouragement and drive, meaning you have the confidence to do more, try something new, lift heavier etc. Emma is very professional, and takes time to understand your needs and goals. Every workout is tailored to you, and changed up each time to keep you on your toes! Any level, any goal, Emma will have the workout for you, and support you to achieve your goals.

Emma is very thorough and professional in her approach to assist with my ongoing recovery. She is always very considerate and thoughtful and asks about whether the massage pressure applied is comfortable or needs to be changed. Always room to progress further, but that is more to do with my requirements going forward. Excellent work.

I could not recommend Emma enough, she is a fantastic PT.
I first started with Emma in 2011 hoping to lose weight after my 2nd child. Emma helped me achieve my goals constantly pushing me out my comfort zone, motivated me and makes the workout fun.I lost the weight, became stronger and gained confidence.
This year has been a challenge and Emma has been brilliant - supplying on line classes. These have helped me not only physically but also mentally.
You’ll not find a better PT or motivator!

I have been attending Emma's sessions for around 8 years and now consider her a friend, this does not mean she lets me off lightly!
Right from the start, I realised my technique was all wrong and Emma's directions helped me correct that.

Emma is a fabulous PT and really knows her stuff. I take part in Emma’s HIIT classes and have had a couple of PT sessions also. Emma has really changed my attitude towards fitness and I look forward to her classes - even though they are very tough! She is always pushing you to your limits and very motivating. I would highly recommend Emma.

When my daughter was a competing dancer Emma provided both personal and group training session to improve her strength, fitness, stamina and diet.
Emma provided a personal fitness and eating plan for her to follow outwith the sessions she had with her.
As well as coaching on the fitness and health side of things, Emma was also a fantastic motivator. At times when my daughter's confidence was low, Emma was so supportive and nothting was too much bother for her.
Emma also provided sports massage to prevent and treat injuries, ensuring she was still able to attend dance classes and competitions. As a parent, it was a god send to have Emma there to provide support and coaching.
