Jenni Percival

MA(Hons) DipSM MSMA MISRM

Jennifer gained a Diploma in Sports Massage at the Scottish School of Professional Massage in 2008 after completing an initial Diploma in Therapeutic Massage at the Sylvia Brearley School of Massage in Harrogate. 

Previously, Jennifer served for 10 years in the Royal Air Force which developed her interest in physical fitness and the remedial benefits of massage to treat many types of soft tissue issues, such as muscle strains, over-use injuries and repetitive use injuries.  Sports massage is also advisable as a routine part of training as sub-clinical issues can be detected and addressed early thus preventing injury.

Sports and therapeutic massage is not only restricted to those who participate regularly in sports but can help anyone, from the first time charity runner to the office worker with a sore back or neck.

During treatment Jennifer may use various techniques such as Neuro-Muscluar Technique, Soft-Tissue Release and Muscle Energy Technique to relieve adhesions in muscles and allow for full range of movement within a joint or muscle group. She can also advise on stretching programs to assist in the rehabilitation of injury.  Jennifer is also available for Pre and Post Event work. 

Jennifer is a Level 4 member of the Sports Massage Association (SMA) and the Institute of Sports and Remedial Massage (ISRM) who ensure that all members have been trained to the highest level and adhere to their strict Code of Conduct.
