Andrew Stevenson Sports and Holistic Massage and Reflexology Practitioner Derby, Nottingham and surrounding areas.
About Me
Qualified in 2005 , I am an experienced therapist dedicated to helping clients maintain optimal physical health and mental well-being. My journey into therapy began after a career in the Armed Forces, where competing in sports at a high level showed me firsthand the impact of rigorous physical demands—and the importance of proper recovery.
Like any complex machine, the human body requires regular maintenance to perform at its best. Experiencing the remarkable benefits of Sports Massage and Reflexology on my own physical recovery and mental clarity transformed me from a skeptic into a passionate practitioner. Today, I use my extensive qualifications to help others recover faster, manage pain, and thrive in both athletic pursuits and daily life.

I offer a customized, integrative approach to treatment, combining multiple techniques to address root causes rather than just symptoms:

Whether you are aiming for peak athletic performance or seeking relief from everyday stress and tension, treatments are tailored to meet your unique needs.
