Becky Case-Upton
I have always been fascinated by the human body and have a strong science background. I earned a 1st class degree in Biomedical Science and a PhD in Pharmacology from The University of Sheffield. I have worked in science at The University of Cambridge and as a freelance writer for Kidney Cancer UK. However, my true passion lies in directly helping and communicating with people. I want to combine my interests in sports, physical activity, and healthy living. I am eager to use my scientific knowledge to help people optimize their bodies and improve their well-being.
Training & Experience
I learned reflexology at The London School of Reflexology in 2009. After that, I trained in the Bergman method of facial reflexology, pregnancy reflexology, and Indian head massage.
I qualified from The North London School of Sports Massage (NLSSM), with a Level 5 Diploma in Sport and Remedial Massage.
I enjoy being part of a team and I have given massages for my local rugby team, Ely Tigers RUFC. I regularly provided massages for the Saracens rugby team during their recovery sessions in the 2018/19 season, which helped me gain valuable work experience. Additionally, I volunteer at charity events like The London Marathon and Ride London.
After getting my qualifications, I expanded my soft tissue therapy practice by learning additional methods like medical acupuncture, kinesiology taping, and dry cupping. Starting in October 2020, I started training with Polestar Pilates to become a comprehensive pilates instructor. This has given me more exercise-related knowledge to better analyze treatments and provide aftercare.
In 2022, I completed my yoga teacher training in Goa, India at Kranti Yoga. I earned a 200-hour qualification certified by Yoga Alliance. I have an appreciation of meditation, breath work, and yoga philosophy.
“Becky certainly knows what she's doing! I had a session with her yesterday to help loosen my very tight feeling leg muscles.... not only did she do a great job, she offered lots of advice to help in the long term. Becky is friendly and welcoming, making it a great all round experience. I have no hesitation recommending Becky
