Welcome to SB Sports Massage
About Us
SB Sports Massage provides deep massage to treat tension, stress and pain – the day to day problems that everyone experiences, whether it is sitting in the same position, leaning over a desk, lifting heavy objects or performing repetitive tasks.
SB Sports Massage offers massage before a sports event to prepare the body and after an event to ensure the body recovers to its pre-event condition. This is for anyone involved in strenuous exercise or a specific competition.
SB Sports Massage treats sports-specific injuries by assisting with the rehabilitation of muscles, ligaments and tendons to ensure the sports performer returns to full fitness following an injury or surgery.
Sports Massage Treatments
Clients will receive a tailored, high quality treatment. They will undergo a brief consultation with the Practitioner to assess the presenting problem, establish how and when the problem occurred and to discuss the symptoms in detail. Through observations, range of movement tests and postural assessments, the practitioner will discuss a massage strategy with the client before beginning the treatment. You will then be offered advice on how to manage the problem or injury to ensure a quick and responsive recovery, alongside the delivery of massage.
There are 4 main treatments on offer:
Pre Event Massage- Enhances performance

Post Event Massage- Ensures a faster recovery

Testimonials
As a teacher of Physical Education I appreciate the benefits of massage, particularly on my upper body due to a lot of tension in my neck, back and shoulders from teaching sports such as gymnastics, trampolining and badminton. I also play Sunday League Football on a weekly basis and I am in need of regular massage on my legs.
I have been receiving massage from Sally Barker on a regular basis since December 2008 and I am very impressed with her work. Not only have I received massage to treat tension in my upper body, but also pre and post match massage on my legs. Following a pre-match massage I have felt more comfortable warming up and have a greater range of movement during a game. The results of regular post-match massage have been invaluable; I have been relieved of the usual stiffness and aches that I get from playing.
Samantha Warrington – Teacher of PE
Being a fitness coach I need sports massage as part of my weekly routine to help with recovery after training and general maintenance after teaching around 20 classes a week. I have been visiting Sally regularly and have found her to be very knowledgeable about my various muscle tensions and my injuries, which have occurred due to the nature of my business, and I have benefitted greatly from my massages with her.
Through my work in the fitness industry and especially through my Pilates teaching I have been able to recommend and refer my clients to Sally. My participants often come to my Pilates sessions because of back problems and various postural imbalances; Sally has seen a number of my clients who have always come back to me with nothing but praise for her. I will definitely be recommending her in the future.
Natalie Green, Fitness Coach and Pilates Specialist
I have used many healthcare professionals over the years to treat an ongoing back problem and I have found the best results come from sports massage. I have been visiting Sally twice a month for deep tissue massage for several months and I have ironed out my stiffness and tension with the help of massage. Although an effective sports massage can result in temporary discomfort, Sally is good at sensing my tolerance level for pain and the end result is always worth a slight discomfort.
