Three Rivers Sports Massage

I have appointments available next week and the week after for anyone needing Watford Half Marathon pre or post race work 🙂

A client has allowed me to share this image.

It is of the plates and screws in his neck following a cycling accident.

He was braking on gravel at about 10 miles per hour when the front wheel locked, he went over the handlebars and landed on his head.

He is extremely lucky not to have been paralysed by the broken neck but has been told that he may not have even made it to surgery if he had not been wearing a bike helmet!!!!

We all know people that dont wear bike helmets so please feel free to share this with them.

It's back :-)

Watford Half Marathon - 6th February 2022 - Active Training World This UK Athletics Gold Graded event has strong history within the running community and has been taking place for over 40 years.

I have decided that, in order to help protect me, my business and clients, I will continue to wear a mask in the treatment room and require clients to wear them too.

I have reached the decision based on Government & Professional Body advice. Also in the last few days I have had a number cancellations due to either clients or a member of their household testing positive - some of these were short notice so a near miss for me in my opinion :-)

The expectation is for the current wave to peak in August so I will review this again in September

Really looking forward to starting work again on Monday.

I will be testing myself regularly to help protect us all 🙂

Gift Vouchers are available.

Christmas is just around the corner :-)
