Muscle Matters Massage

Angela qualified in 1989 with a degree in Biological and Biochemical Science at Salford University and began a career in the pharmaceutical industry in clinical trials for new drugs. In 2011 Angela gave up her pharmaceutical career to focus more on her love of sport combined with the human body, its movements and the dysfunction of its movements and studied for the highest level Sports and Remedial Massage / Soft Tissue Therapy qualification in the UK (a Professional Diploma in Clinical Sport and Remedial Massage Therapy (Level 5) from the London School of Sport and Remedial Massage).

She qualified with the highest mark on her course in June 2012. Subsequently she set up Muscle Matters Massage as her Sports and Remedial Massage Treatment / Soft Tissue Therapy business.
