This is Hester, Your Trusted Therapist in Sport & Recovery

Hey Im Hester, I’m a BSc (Hons) Sports and Exercise Therapist and founder of Dakin Athletic Recovery & Therapy. I work with athletes and everyday people to relieve pain, prevent injury, and aid recovery. My treatments include sports massage, shockwave therapy, rehabilitation, and taping.

My goal is to help you feel stronger, healthier, and more confident in your body.

Your body deserves the best care

Feel Better, Live Stronger

Many injuries come from everyday habits like long drives or sitting at a desk. The right treatment can ease pain and restore confidence in your movement.

Yes, many treatments such as shockwave therapy, ultrasound, and rehabilitation sessions can help with long-standing or stubborn issues.

No, you can book directly. If I feel further medical input is needed, I’ll advise you during your session.
