Our resident Sports Massage Therapist is club member Deb Grills. Her business AMICUS THERAPY is located at Saints Health and Fitness (part of St Austell Rugby Club) where treatments are available Monday & Wednesday 3pm-9pm; Tuesday & Thursday 10am-4pm and Friday 11am-3pm.
Amicus Therapy treats all individuals, but Deb’s obvious enthusiasm is for sports people and in particular, helping runners achieve their training and racing goals. Deb says “ There was a time where professional sports massage was only available to the elite, but the benefits are now so well documented, it’s well worth every sports person (runner or otherwise) planning massage in their training schedules”. Treatments can be valuable in identifying minor, niggling injuries and treating them at an early stage before they develop and interrupt training and racing. Massage will contribute to the health, flexibility and function of muscles to help reduce the risks of injury occurring in the first place. For those who are running numerous times a week, Recovery Massage can make all the difference in boosting the muscles repair process between sessions. Her treatments will also help you to understand and manage your own physical well being.
Deb was director of Fulcrum Training College, in Wiltshire, for 12 years, where she trained many successful therapists and fitness instructors. She is a qualified lecturer in Sports Therapy, a graduate of the London School of Sports Massage and has a wealth of experience to bring to the club.

For your first treatment, you are asked to arrive 5 minutes before your appointment to allow yourself time to change (if appropriate), fill out a client information sheet and short health questionnaire.
