About The Rackham Effect
Jane Rackham's Sports Massage Therapy Clinic, based in Innsworth Gloucester has been established since 2003. Jane is a registered member of the International Federation of Health, Fitness and Sports Therapists. She is an Advanced Level 4 Rossiter Coach and only 1 of 9 coaches at the level in the country to date. Most recently in 2019 she added Oncology Massage and ScarWork to her therapy services.
As part of the sports massage service, Jane specialises in The Rossiter System which is a powerful Myofasial Release technique using the weight and warmth of the foot. Much more information is available on the main website.
Working towards prolonged sustainable freedom to move pain free, Jane uses a selection of advanced/assisted stretching techniques, Rehab exercises and offers advice on posture.
Sports massage is a unique treatment to reduce muscle tension, promote flexibility and help prevent injury.
It is a strong, dynamic and effective technique used to treat the deeper muscles, tendons and ligaments that cause problems.
The Rossiter System works much deeper to stretch the fascia of the body which is far stronger than any muscle. To truly get pain out you need to work hard at releasing the pain.
Only you know how much pain you are in. A sense of Achievement is felt when you can see and feel immediate relief.
Please refer to the website for more information about all the services offered.
The Rackham Effect's client base covers a wide range of sporting activities including rugby, triathlon and tennis and swimming but equally looks after those who need appropriate care and attention to survive the every day stresses and strains of 'normal' life. Clients ages range from 8 up to 75.
