A Bit About Me

Oh where to start! My name is Rebecca but most call me Bex. I am the founder, owner and therapist at Amazonian Wellbeing. 

​

I have had over 8 years of experience within the fitness and wellbeing world. My journey begun in 2014 where I took on my first job as a lifeguard. This helped me stay fit and introduced me into a gym environment. From there I then became a swim teacher, personal trainer, spin instructor, nutritionist, Tutor and now sports massage therapist (amongst a lot of other career ventures… yes I work a LOT). 

Achievements

Along the way I have also taken part in a variety of sports myself from competing in bikini and figure class women’s bodybuilding, Powerlifting and currently strongwoman. I currently hold Suffolk’s & Hampshire’s strongest women titles and have previously won world records within junior powerlifting. My goal is to one day compete as a pro strongwoman. 

Interests

My interest for physical therapy has grown over the years. Not just because I have had similar fitness qualifications but also because I have experienced and used therapies myself from sports massage, osteopathy, cryotherapy and physiotherapy to help enhance my recovery and deal with injuries in training. 

​

I like to feel that I have an understanding of how a client feels when visiting me within clinic because I have been there myself. I understand the frustration of having an injury or niggle and just wanting to find a therapist to help me get back on track asap without the silliness in-between. Whenever a new client comes to me they receive a full client screening and consultation free of charge to see how they function/ feel and it also enables me to plan the best solution method for them. 

Work Experience

Amazonian Wellbeing

MTG Active Ltd

CryojuvenateUK 

I have put in the time to continually develop my skills and knowledge as a therapist where I have studied and become qualified in traditional Chinese cupping therapy, Gua sha myofascial release, pregnancy massage, advanced reflexology, medical acupuncture, acupressure and more. I want to view a client from all methods and combine them together to give each client a unique experience. 

I also currently work as tutor/ assessor for MTG Active where I help others become qualified as a level 3 sports massage therapist. This position enables me to stay up to date on anatomy and physiology and help my students receive top quality training. 

Another role I hold is a therapist at CryojuvenateUK where I provide Cryotherapy treatments from chambers, local cryo, Cryolipolysis, EMS and more. This position gives me opportunity to work with experienced physiotherapists and clients with more medical and complex conditions and use some of this knowledge within my own services. 

My Goal

Amazonian Wellbeing begun in December 2021 where I created the business from scratch and a lot of determination. My goal is to provide a high quality service but also give each client an unforgettable experience. I have combined the professionalism and knowledge of a sports therapist with the invigorating experience that a spa provides. Combining both physical and holistic therapies to get you warrior fit.

 

To put it simple, I want to help you the best I can but using the wide knowledge base and experience I have built in my life so far.
