Running & Massage

Sports massage for runners in New Malden — how it helps.

Running is one of the best things you can do for your body, and one of the most demanding. Every stride places significant load through your calves, hamstrings, hip flexors, IT band and lower back. Over the course of a training block, muscles tighten, movement patterns shift, and the body starts compensating.

This is where most running injuries come from. Sports massage addresses these imbalances directly at Nick's private practice at Beverley Road, New Malden (KT3 4AW), releasing built-up tension and reducing the risk of overuse injuries that derail training blocks. For plantar fasciitis, calf strains and stubborn IT band issues, targeted treatment on the contributing structures (not just the pain site) is what produces lasting results.

Nick sees runners from across South West London, including members of Raynes Park Harriers, Kingston AC, Wimbledon Windmilers and Thames Hare & Hounds. Clients travel from Kingston, Wimbledon, Raynes Park and across South West London. If you're in a training block, preparing for a specific race, or managing an injury that's threatening to derail your plans, WhatsApp Nick directly. He can usually advise on whether treatment is appropriate before you even book.

How Nick Helps Runners

Targeted support at every stage of training.

🏁

Pre Race Preparation

Reduce muscle tension and improve range of movement before a big event. A well-timed session 2-4 days out makes a real difference to how you feel on the start line: looser, more mobile, less likely to tighten in the early miles.

🔄

Post Race Recovery

Flush out fatigue, reduce soreness and speed up your return to training after a race. Particularly valuable after marathons and half marathons. Book within 48–72 hours for best results. Also helps with any lower back stiffness that builds on long runs.

🩹

Injury Treatment

IT band syndrome, shin splints, calf strains, hamstring tightness and plantar fasciitis: the most common running injuries, treated at the source not just where it hurts.

📅

Training Block Maintenance

Regular treatment every 2–4 weeks throughout your training block keeps your body performing consistently and reduces the chance of overuse injuries that derail plans. Most marathon runners find the 90-minute session the most effective for full-body work.

Also treating: hip pain, sciatica, shin splints, calf strain, pre-race tension and sleep, and sports performance maintenance.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Having been in tears thinking my Copenhagen Marathon was over with a calf injury four weeks out, Nick was incredibly thorough. I was able to make it to the start line and finished in 3 hours 6 minutes. I now look forward to Nick helping me with prevention rather than cure."

When to Book

The best time to start is before you're injured.

  • 2–4 weeks before a major race for preparation
  • Within 48–72 hours after a race for recovery
  • Every 2–4 weeks during a training block for maintenance
  • As soon as possible if dealing with an acute injury

New clients can text "Intro" to +44 7517 335 358 for a first 60-minute session at £60 (usually £100). Available until 31 August 2026. The 90-minute session is recommended for runners, giving enough time to work across the key areas: calves, hamstrings, hip flexors, glutes and lower back. Nick is based at Beverley Road, New Malden, KT3 4AW.

About Your Therapist

13 years. Former tennis coach. Runners treated properly.

Nick Monczakowski holds a BTEC Level 5 in Sports and Remedial Massage Therapy, the highest vocational qualification in this field. Before specialising in soft tissue therapy, he spent 8 years coaching tennis at competitive level, developing a deep understanding of movement mechanics, training load and how overuse patterns develop over time. This background is particularly relevant for runners: the same principles of load management, compensatory patterns and tissue adaptation apply across all endurance sports.

Previous clinical roles include Nuffield Health (New Malden & Epsom), Perfect London Massage (including Google HQ), Ewell Chiropractic and The Ned. For runners with deep-seated tension or complex presentations, deep tissue massage may be the more appropriate approach. Nick can advise after the initial assessment.

Common Questions

Before you book for running.

Both serve different purposes. A pre-race session 2-4 days before a marathon or half marathon reduces muscle tension and improves range of movement — helping you feel loose on the start line. Avoid deep work in the final 48 hours; a lighter mobilising session is better immediately before. Post-race, book within 48-72 hours to flush out fatigue and speed recovery. Many runners do both as standard practice.
Yes, and it is often a good idea. A mobilising session 4-5 days before the race keeps muscles loose without generating the soreness that can follow deeper work. Avoid your very first massage session in the final 3 days before a race — the initial session can produce temporary soreness as the body adjusts.
IT band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, calf strains, hamstring tightness and shin splints all respond very well to targeted sports massage. These are overuse injuries driven by tight or compensating muscle groups — treating those groups directly, rather than just the pain site, is what produces lasting results. Hip flexor tightness and lower back stiffness from running also respond very well.
During a marathon training block, every 2-4 weeks is effective. More frequently during peak weeks if your mileage is high. A pre-race session and a post-race recovery session at minimum. You will get a specific recommendation based on your training schedule and presentation after your first session.
