Charlotte Page
Upon graduating as a Physiotherapist in 2006, Charlotte worked in
a London private practice where her passion for sport and fitness
led her to study for a Diploma in Personal Training and Sports Massage
Therapy. This resulted in her understanding that almost all illness
or conditions with a degree of pain results in muscle tension, which
in turn affects movement and posture.
Charlottes’ elite sporting background includes being a member
of the U18 Women’s England Rugby Squad, University’s
Rowing Captain, County Tennis and Athletics. She has a huge understanding
of the active client (being a mother of young children, a builder
or a professional athlete) and how increased levels of physical
and emotional stress in people’s lives, increases levels of
soft tissue dysfunction.
Sports massage induces both physiological and psychological response,
improving muscle condition, reducing stiffness, pain and fatigue,
increasing flexibility and movement range. While also reducing blood
pressure, it can remove metabolic waste products and increase the
rate of healing and tissue repair. Skin elasticity is improved along
with exfoliation and stimulation of the reproductive layers of skin.
Massage can affect mental state, either stimulating alertness, ready
for activity or reducing anxiety, enhancing relaxation and providing
feelings of well-being.
