Kat Parnell Sports Massage and Personal Training

Fantastic experience: An excellent experience both from the care Kat took to find out where I wanted treatment as well as the superb firm pressure that she applied, quite apart from the added bonus that she is a jolly nice person! I thoroughly recommend her services and will be back for another in due course.

Fantastic experience: Kat's massages are an experience. You leave the massage table feeling like a new person. She listens, gives advice and takes care. She sometimes turns up late as she's been chatting to Sam Morsy in a sauna, but she's worth the wait.

Fantastic experience: Just had another much needed sports massage with the legend that is Kat. Very professional and personalised, highly recommended, same again next week please

Fantastic experience: Kat is amazing—super skilled and so easy to get along with. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I had a knot in between my right shoulder blade and traps which Kat really helped me feel better after the massage. Top class precision from her and I would highly recommended to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Kat. Not only a great massage during marathon training also really helpful guidance and chat to make me feel comfortable and confident to continue my training. She really knows her stuff and will definitely be booking in regularly. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: An outstanding Sports Massage from Kat yesterday. I am a serving soldier of almost 30 years and never taken much care of myself in the recovery side of training. From first meeting Kat she made me feel right at home. We discussed previous training and effects on my body. Then it was straight down to business. I’ve had sport massages in the past but in reflection, they probably weren’t that at all, as I had them in spa’s. Kat doesn’t let you get out of there lightly. You get exactly what you ask for. I’m still feeling the effects a day later but managed a great nights sleep and know I will be running recharged when I go back to the gym. Thank you Kat

Fantastic experience: Had a full hour back sports massage,kat was very professional and knowledgeable and I will definitely be returning. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: My first experience at Kats was great. Left feeling like I had been in the hands of someone very knowledgeable. Relaxed atmosphere, easy to find will definitely be using again.

Fantastic experience: Kat is always professional and provides a great sports massage for a good price. It certainly eases and free’s up my legs when they’ve been tight and helps maintain my running.

Fantastic experience: Would definitely recommend! I booked a sports massage with Kat after pulling a muscle in my lower back and having tightness and muscle aches after a week. She is really friendly, professional and creates a relaxed atmosphere for the treatment. I felt great after . Will deffo go back if needed.

Fantastic experience: If you’ve got any niggles, get yourself booked in with Kat, she was great! Easy to book, with confirmation email and appointment reminders. She made me feel comfortable and listened to the issues I wanted to address. A great service and I felt the benefits immediately, 100% will be back! Thank you, Tom

Fantastic experience: Great sports massage, was able to really target the areas I needed most help with. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I visited Kat for a much needed MOT after an intense year of training...I wish I had booked sooner! I didn't realize until later that evening how much better I felt. Kat provides a highly professional service and has years of experience, ranging from recreational to pro-sports. If you are feeling any niggles, go and see her. You wont regret it.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic sports massage today. Exactly what I needed. Been having some back issues and can already feel benefits. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Kat is an expert in her field. She took the time to understand the issue with my hamstring, she talked me through exercises and stretches which will aid my recovery. Kat then provided a sports massage which has eased the pain and discomfort.

Fantastic experience: So glad to have chosen Kat to sort my tight body out very professional and perfect service- 10/10

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Kat enough. Tight hamstrings from increased running training recently and a niggle in my calf was my brief. The correct pressure has eased them immensely. My legs felt great at gym class tonight and I felt like I was flying on the sprints sections. Easy to find, parking on site and fun conversation meant the time flew by. I will be adding sessions into my training routines moving forward.

Fantastic experience: First time visiting Kat today and I was instantly made to feel incredibly welcome. Kat delivered an awesome massage ! Focusing on the areas I have been having issues with when it comes to running , which resulted in tight calves. As well as addressing my a tense , tight muscles in my upper back from poor work posture . I’m all ready feeling much looser and look forward to returning . Thank you

Fantastic experience: As someone who has hammered their body for the best part of 30+ years and never had any form of massage, I was in need of some work. After just an hour with Kat I was transformed. Just 48 hours after her services I felt significantly more mobile and managed to access a far greater range of shoulder mobility than I can remember. Knowledgeable, personable and thoroughly professional. I will most definitely be going back to sort the rest of my body out. 5 stars all day long. Thank you Kat

Fantastic experience: Kat Parnell's sports massage is a game-changer. Her expertise and deep tissue work were exactly what my aching muscles needed. I left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, with significantly reduced tension. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: After dealing with a trapped nerve, I booked to have a deep tissue massage with Kat. I am very happy I did. I'm feeling great after getting a lot of tension out of my back and legs. I definitely recommend and will visit again soon!

Fantastic experience: My calves take a good battering from running and Kat really helped - I'm used to pretty firm sports massages but Kat didn't go in all guns blazing but built up giving the muscles time to get used to it which I believe also helped with minimal DOMs the following day enabling me to knock out a really good run session. Thanks Kat :)

Fantastic experience: Wonderful sports massage and back feels so much better. A real pro and highly recommend

Fantastic experience: After being told i would benefit from a sports massage i thought i would give Kat a shout. Muscle tighness self diagnosed 8/10. Wish i had booked sooner. So i will book again and not leave it 49 years. If i feel this much better after one, i look forward to the next.
