Sports Massage – Lynn Denvir<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Lynn<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you experience lots of aches and pains, then a massage on a regular basis can really help – you can go to a professional like our sports massage graduate, Lynn Denvir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lynn has been self employed and qualified in aromatherapy<\/a> and massage (also a gym instructor doing circuits) for over 10 years. She\u2019s currently based at the Senhouse Centre in Whitehaven, Cumbria where she provides a pleasant; safe environment for clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lynn has previously studied on our Clinical Nutrition Course<\/a> when her son was still at school. Distance learning meant she could easily fit her studies around her daily life. When it came to achieving her goal of gaining a sports massage qualification, she looked to us. Lynn said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI read the prospectus, knew how it worked and trusted Stonebridge.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

For instance, tense neck muscles are a very common issue.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, with study, some lotion and practise, a neck massage can become simple to do \u2013 don\u2019t forget the shoulder muscles too.There are different types of massages to treat a variety of ailments<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re an amateur athlete or active person then you should consider sports massages. You\u2019ll simply perform better if your muscles aren’t tense. These sports massages are done with a greater force than the other types to help boost circulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A sports massage is not really used to help relaxation but rather to prevent any future injuries. However, quick gentle massage strokes and stretching exercises are generally included as well to help aid recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Up until quite recently Lynn has offered a wide variety of services; however sports massage (deep tissue massage) wasn\u2019t on her treatment list. She was increasingly asked whether she could do sports massages. These enquiries came from rugby players, trail runners and sporting enthusiasts in her local area. With the demand obviously high \u2013 Lynn was keen to meet it head on and take action!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sports massage \u2013 how is it different?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just to emphasise, anyone that’s into sports knows a little bit about a sports massage. It\u2019s also beneficial for anyone who likes to exercise or train hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a sport massage is a great way to get back on your feet as soon as possible, after a sporting injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We caught up with Lynn recently after her graduation and here\u2019s what she had to say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 What was the best part of the course for you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI like learning full stop. I enjoyed the whole course \u2013 the written work, the theory and the new techniques\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

How has the course benefited you in your career?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI now can offer another massage treatment to clients, one that has been requested several times.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

How was your tutor support?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI had great support from my tutor. The feedback from my assignments was useful and pointed me in the right direction.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Would you recommend Stonebridge to others?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI easily managed to fit study around my work shifts and learnt a lot. I would definitely recommend Stonebridge to others.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps it\u2019s due to the increasingly hectic nature of today’s modern lifestyle, that massage therapy is becoming more popular than ever before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
