SPORTS & REMEDIAL MASSAGE · SCAR THERAPY · WELWYN GARDEN CITY
Feel more at home
in your body.
Skilled hands-on treatment for pain, restricted movement, sports recovery and scars - shaped around the person in front of me.
WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?
You don’t need to know which technique to book. Start with what your body is experiencing.
Persistent aches, stiff shoulders, a back that never quite settles. We work out what is limiting you and treat accordingly.
Tightness, numbness or sensitivity around a healed scar - treated gently and at your pace.
Preparing for an event, recovering between sessions, or easing the load after a heavy training block.
Adapted, careful treatment for pregnancy and for people during or after cancer treatment.
TREATMENTS
A small range of things,
done properly.
Every session combines what is appropriate for you on the day. Techniques are a means, not a menu. Sessions from £73.
Gentle, specialist hands-on treatment around fully healed scars, where tightness, sensitivity or restriction is affecting comfort.
Adapted positioning and careful pacing to ease the muscular tension that comes with a changing body.
Adapted treatment for people during and after cancer treatment, shaped around energy, sensitivity and medical guidance.
An optional technique used within hands-on treatment where it is suitable and wanted.
FEATURED · SCAR THERAPY
A scar can affect more
than its appearance.
Scar tissue can sometimes feel tight, numb, sensitive, restricted or disconnected. Gentle, specialist hands-on work is tailored to the person, the scar and where they are in their recovery.
Wounds must be fully healed before treatment, and individual suitability is always discussed beforehand. Scar therapy supports comfort and mobility; it does not remove scars or guarantee change.
MEET YOUR THERAPIST
Experienced hands.
Thoughtful treatment.
I’m Anca, the therapist behind Orchard. For more than a decade, I’ve worked with active people, persistent pain, post-surgical changes, pregnancy, oncology care and scars. I listen carefully, assess what is happening now and adapt each session around the person in front of me.

WHAT TO EXPECT
A session that follows you, not a script.
Listen
We begin with what has changed, what feels restricted and what matters to you.
Assess
We look at movement, comfort and the areas that need attention.
Treat
Your session is adapted as we work, combining appropriate techniques rather than following a routine.
IN THEIR WORDS
Trusted by people across
Hertfordshire.
Anca is top of her game, simple. I’ve been seeing Anca on and off for a number of years, sometimes for injury but mostly for ‘maintenance’. Anca has a unique ability to see beyond the physical. Cannot recommend enough.
- Tom
Anca is very professional and takes time to understand the requirements and expectations for the massage treatment. She then is able to tune the massage exactly as needed. I had gone for a massage to my lowerback, after the sports massage, I felt really well relaxed and felt that my mobility also improved noticeably.
