Meet The Team
Rosie
My passion for a career in sports and remedial massaging came following many years of competing in sports and suffering from muscular injuries myself. As I started to gain a more in-depth knowledge about the body and how it positively reacts to massaging, I knew I wanted to pursue a career in the industry and strive to support others in reaching their full physical potential.
I trained at the London School of Sports Massage and was awarded a BTEC level 5 diploma in Soft Tissue Therapy. Since completing my qualifications I am proud to have built up a reputable business from my clinic in Farley Hill, priding myself on providing each of my clients with a service bespoke to meet their specific needs. This approach has enabled me to successfully grow my business and achieve a high level of client retention.
Over the last five years I have also completed qualifications in Dry needling, Manual therapy & joint mobilisation, Myofascial Cupping, Taping and Strapping, to further expand and complement the services I provide to my clients. I am also a fully insured member of the Institute of Sports and Remedial Massage.
Sophie
I am a qualified Physiotherapist having graduated with a BSc (Hons) degree from the University of Southampton. Since graduating I have completed my Extended Sports Massage Qualification and am a fully insured member of the Chartered Society Of Physiotherapy.
I love sport and being active, and am currently a full-time athlete, as part of the World Class Start programme, at Reading rowing club. This was a large part of why I wanted to further extend my qualification, to include sports massage therapy. After feeling the benefits sports massage continues to have on my performance and day to day life, I wanted to be able to provide the same benefits to the people I treat.
I am delighted to be working with Rosie and further complementing the services she provides to her clients from her Clinic in Farley Hill.
Hannah
I am a fully qualified Sports Therapist having graduated with a BSc (Hons) degree from the University of Gloucestershire. Since graduating I have worked on expanding my qualifications to include KTape, First Aid, Cupping and WaveStone massage and am a fully insured member of the Society of Sports Therapists.
Since completing my degree I have worked in several clinics, developing and improving my sports therapy skills, as well as my working knowledge of sport and work-related musculoskeletal conditions. My interests are mainly centred around my dog, Fynn, whom I train and compete in canine sports with. I also enjoy skiing and going to the gym and use these as my sporting outlet when I am not dog training!
I am now delighted to be working with Rosie, offering my services and welcoming you to her clinic in Farley Hill.
Donna
I am a fully qualified reflexologist having graduated with a ITEC Level 3 Diploma. Since graduating in 2020 i am to expand my qualifications to include fertility and Maternity Reflexology course. ( I will be learning some new and exciting Reflexology techniques for this specialism). Aroma Reflex (use of Aromatherapy oils with Reflexology – specific to your ailments) and Facial Reflexology. I am a fully insured member of the Alan Boswell Group and a member of: AOR (Association of Reflexologists).
I have been working at a Hospice in Reading for the last 10 years and I witnessed the benefits Reflexology had for our patients there who were given treatments by the Complementary Therapist. I was intrigued, had some treatments myself which I found amazing and when I was pregnant with my first child it helped me hugely. I was hooked and embarked on training to be a Reflexologist myself as soon as I could. I am hugely passionate about it and the power of the treatments, so I am really excited to be now working at Rosie’s clinic to offer this service to her clients.
Since qualifying as a Reflexologist I have been working as a mobile Therapist for the last two and half years, treating clients in their own homes. Now I am thrilled to be joining Rosie’s clinic to offer Reflexology in her beautiful treatment room.
Emma
I am a fully qualified Sports Therapist having graduated with a First Class BSc (Honors) in Sport and Exercise Therapy from the Coventry University. Since graduating I have worked on expanding my qualifications to include Pregnancy Massage and Myofascial Dry Cupping. I am a fully insured member of the Society of Sports Therapists (STA).
Since then I have worked within clinics, professional sports clubs and with elite athletes.
I’ve grown up very sporty and active and have played football since I was 8. Since then I’ve had lots of niggles and regularly went for sports massages and physiotherapy, especially during sixth-form when I was playing football 6 times a week for Swindon Town.
Muscular injuries and tension will undoubtedly affect us all at some point so no matter if you’re a fitness fanatic, stressed out office worker, keen gardener or busy full-time parent; if you’re struggling with pain, come and see me and let’s get your healing journey started.
Nina
I am currently in my 3rd year at the University of Gloucestershire and will be graduating with a degree in physiotherapy in July 2024. During my second year I completed my Level 3 Sports massage course as well as my taping in sport qualification.
I have experience in lots of different clinical settings including MSK outpatient clinics, acute stroke rehabilitation and trauma and orthopaedic wards in the hospital. I also volunteer at Swindon Wildcats ice hockey team doing their pre-game treatments and pitch side first aid.
I am currently a netball player for my university 1st team which has given me an opportunity to play alongside and against some of the top players in the country. My netball career has come with it’s fair share of injuries, meaning I have always felt the benefits of sports massage and rehabilitation and I am delighted to be able to offer the same relief to others.
I am excited to work alongside Rosie and the rest of the team and look forward to furthering my career with you all.
