YOUR STORY
It is likely that you will be suffering with anything from mild postural discomfort to an inflamed painful joint, brought on via work, sport or life. You could be an individual who has a musculoskeletal disorder and would like to improve your situation. Regardless of where your issue stems, I look forward to helping you navigate a way forward :)
MY STORY
Treat and Compete began as a sports injury and pain management service in 2012 to meet the needs for members of the public who experience musculoskeletal issues derived from work, sport or life. I have been able to hone in on what helps people and provide that in the bookable sessions below. Treat and Compete is delivered by me, Cash, your therapist however my given name is Catriona :) Over the last 13 years I have applied skills that I learnt from various courses, being involved with sports teams, healthcare settings and always continuing with professional development.

FOR
ME?
TREAT
One Session
Treat is very much geared towards resolving the acute issue you are faced with, hands on. See below for the techniques I use! You may be experiencing muscle stiffness, acute injury, chronic pain or fatigue. I will take into account the information you have provided in the consultation form, what you have given consent to and give you a run down of what I've planned when you arrive.
COMPETE
One Month
Book your first session below and the remaining three will be organised at your session or via email communication.
When you book Compete we are working towards improving your musculoskeletal system, in a way that makes sense to your needs, off table. We could work towards a mobility program that gives you confidence in your environment. Alternatively, I can design a robust strength programme that will develop muscle to best protect your skeletal system.

In Work
Stress, Ergonomics, Time
For some of us our jobs can bring a level of stress that places demands onto our musculoskeletal system. On table will provide relief from the tension and heaviness you are experiencing. Off table will serve as a template for what movement will benefit your situation.
The structure of my service gives time for us to discus areas where changes could be made and implemented easily at the start middle or end of your day.
In Sport
Performance, Recovery, Injury
Depending on the reason for your appointment I provide Sports massage for Recovery and Performance focusing on the muscles most utilised in the sport or activity you participate in.
Injury classifications I work with include: Pre injured mild pain unto to Grade 3 Ligament Sprain. Part of my job is to get you focused on what is important and why time spent on warmup / stretching or rehabilitation will thank you in the long run.
In Life
Syndromes, Stress, fatigue
The structure of my service offers time to discuss the pain or discomfort you are experiencing day to day. This time in itself is always therapeutic and we can come up with a treatment plan that serves as a way forward. I have helped a range of individuals who experience general muscular stiffness to chronic pain derived from life stressors to those dealing with muscular syndromes.
On table service will aim to reduce the pain or discomfort you are experiencing while off table will hone in on strength or mobility techniques that will serve you better in your environment !
Story Time
*****
In work
"With a neck and lower back that suffer frequent pain due to a combination of weakness, tightness and sitting for long periods of time for work, Catriona has been incredible to help relieve my pain. Pain has reduced significantly since coming to Treat and Compete. I come back frequently to manage my pain and am able to due to the fair prices. Highly reccommend!"

In Sport
"Cash was recommended to me by a friend after I injured my lower back, nearly 2 years ago. Honestly one of the best recommendations I've received. Whatever injury or bad posture ailment I take, Cash somehow works her magic. We've worked through a number of things from lower back, shoulder injury to tight hip flexors. Amazing for on-going support if you're active or even if you just sit at your desk all day. Highly recommend and will continue going back."
