CUPPING
The suction and negative pressure provided by cupping can loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and sedate the nervous system (which makes it an excellent treatment for high blood pressure). Cupping is used to relieve back and neck pains, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism, and more.
IASTM
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Massage is performed with ergonomically designed instruments that detect and treat fascial restrictions, encourage rapid localisation and effectively treat areas exhibiting soft tissue fibrosis, chronic inflammation, or degeneration.
DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
Deep Tissue Massage uses slow strokes and deep hand pressure on areas of muscle tension, either following or against the direction of the muscles, tendons and fascia. It frees the muscles, facilitates the release of tension patterns and can restore suppleness, length and increased range of motion.
SPORTS/SOFT TISSUE MASSAGE
Sports massage is geared towards athletes of every kind, from world-class professionals to weekend joggers. When used regularly in the training regimen, Sports Massage improves an athletes recovery after exertion, maintains their range of motion and reduces the risk of injury from overtraining.

Before & After
Sports Massage Treatment
Peter
I can’t explain how grateful I am for Darran’s help. After months of agony in my shoulders and elbows I had to cut back on training. The pain I was feeling in both elbows and shoulders all this time was virtually gone after two treatment sessions. Incredible improvement which made me able to train so much easier.
Patryk
Had treatment from Darran due to ongoing pain whilst training shoulders in the gym. After one session the pain was pretty much gone for the first time in over two years.
Oly
I've been using Darran for the last few years to help with repetitive strain injuries I have developed while working as a carpenter. My forearms and hip flexors being the main issues. Darrans treatments alleviated my symptoms and enabled me to get back to work effectively. A very knowledgeable and professional practitioner I would recommend.
