Lothian Massage

Who is Lothian Massage?

My name is Sarah and I have been living and working in Edinburgh since February 2009, having previously worked from my own clinic in the Highlands.

The majority of my work is clinic-based, and I am fortunate to work alongside a great team of therapists at Active Health Ltd, located in Polwarth Gardens, Edinburgh. Our multi-disciplinary team includes Physiotherapy, Massage, Pilates, Podiatary and Cranio-Sacral therapy.

Living with Chronic Fatigue for 7 years, I found massage was one of the few things that gave me relief from my symptoms and contributed hugely to my recovery. When my health had recovered sufficiently to pursue a course of study, I trained in Swedish Massage, and I have not looked back since!

I have had a number of opportunities to work with professional sportspeople over the years. I spent 2 years as Edinburgh Rugby’s Massage therapist, during which time I also worked with The All Blacks, The Italian National Rugby Squad, various teams at the Scotland Sevens tournament, Scotland Ladies and Under 21s Squad.

In Summer 2014, I was a volunteer in the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, providing massage for the divers at the Royal Commonwealth Pool in Edinburgh. Inspired by my time working with the athletes, I even took up diving lessons a month after the end of the Games!

Following my experience at Glasgow 2014, I was fortunate enough to travel to Azerbaijan in June 2015, where I was Field of Play Team Leader for the Diving competition in the inaugural Baku 2015 European Games.
