Massage for Busy Women with Back, Neck & Shoulder Pain. Ease discomfort, Move Freely, and Get Back to What You Love

Does This Sound Familiar?

You’re juggling work, family, and everything else life throws your way - and it's exhausting. On top of that, your back, neck, and shoulder pain is always there, making it even harder to keep up. You've tried painkillers, stretching, and even seen other health professionals, but nothing really helps. It's frustrating, and it's affecting your energy, mood, and even your sense of self.

Massage for back pain in the Cotswolds

If this sounds like you, you're in the right place. Welcome to Cotswold Therapeutic Massage - my tranquil and cosy space nestled in the village of Bledington in the heart of the Cotswolds.

I understand how chronic pain affects more than just your body - it affects your life. That’s why my treatments are designed not only to relieve pain, but to help you get back to being the person you want to be.

Is this is your daily reality?

Your mornings are a struggle. You wake up feeling stiff, sore, and already mentally drained before your day has even started.

You're already dreading the day ahead, knowing you'll have to push through the discomfort.

The stress piles up. Between work, family, and everything else, it feels like you’re constantly putting everyone else’s needs first.

Sitting at your desk becomes unbearable, and by lunchtime, your shoulders are tight and your neck feels like it's in a vice.

You try to keep going, but by evening, you’re completely drained, both physically and mentally.

You miss feeling like yourself.

You want to spend time with your family, enjoy your hobbies, and feel connected to the people you care about - but instead, you find yourself on the sofa, exhausted and stuck in pain.

You long to be active, to have the energy to do the things you enjoy, but that pain just keeps holding you back…

But what if things could be different?

What if you could wake up feeling rested - not stiff and sore?

What if your day could flow more smoothly, and sitting at your desk felt comfortable instead of painful?

What if you could move freely, feeling light and relaxed, instead of heavy with tension?

What if you had the energy to engage fully with your family, your work, and your life, without that constant undercurrent of discomfort holding you back?

This isn’t just wishful thinking. With regular massage therapy, I’ve helped many women move from tension and pain to feeling calm, energised, and more like themselves again.

Why book with me?

What makes my treatments different is my unique blend of massage techniques that address both pain relief and relaxation, focusing on the connection between body and mind.

As a result, you not only experience relief from pain and tension but also feel deeply relaxed and re-energised, ready to face whatever your busy life throws at you...

  • “ I have been seeing Nicola for massages for a number of years now and she is wonderful. She has a lovely warm and caring manner and creates a very relaxing and nurturing environment. Her massages are a lovely combination of totally relaxing but also getting to the route of any pain and niggles. Can’t recommend highly enough!” Rachel H

  • “I had a wonderful experience at Cotswold Therapeutic Massage. Nicola was so welcoming and her treatment room is very restful and relaxing. I am 50 year old female and have a job which requires sitting for long periods of time, as a result I have chronic back and shoulder pain. Nicola’s treatment was targeted and she immediately identified the areas of tension. Afterwards I felt my mobility was much improved, the pain reduced and it felt good to do something for myself.” Zeita S

  • “Cotswold Therapeutic Massage was recommended to me by a friend, who thought the treatment would help my chronic back and shoulder problems. Nicola was friendly and very professional, assessing my particular needs from our initial talk. She knew exactly which areas to target and worked on them competently so that I left feeling so much better. I am now a regular client.” Jan H

  • “Much- needed relief for aching limbs and a wearied mind. I've had lots of massages from Nicola and they really hit the spot every time. Quite literally! She is clearly a very professional and accomplished practitioner with an assured technique and I think it's her calm, warm demeanour with a real dedication to the details (the heated massage table is a particular treat!) that make one of her massages so much more memorable than all the rest. A most restorative experience all round!” Simone B

  • “Nicola has been treating me for many years to alleviate my chronic health conditions. She is warm, welcoming and friendly and works efficiently on all my trouble areas. I always come away feeling more flexible and comfortable.” Lucy K
