Who Else is at CrossFit Paratus?
OLD TRADE TATTOO
Hi there!
I’m Elliot from Old Trade Tattoo, where we believe in creating exceptional tattoo services. In a time when tattooing is becoming increasingly popular and acceptable, my philosophy is to collaborate with my clients to translate their vision from concept to a work of art that complements their body flow, something they can truly be proud of.
With a passion for tattooing, I was fortunate enough to establish OTT back in 2018, following a lengthy career in snow sports. I trained across various art disciplines—from the precision of fine art and digital design to the spontaneity of watercolour and street art. This journey has shaped me into the tattoo artist I am today. I enjoy exploring a wide range of tattoo styles, including Traditional, Neo Trad, and Japanese, but my primary focus is on black and grey realism, illustrative work, and portrait tattoos.
For any enquiries or to arrange a free consultation, feel free to reach out to me through Instagram @oldtradetattoo or contact me below. I’m also excited to collaborate with other local businesses, like CrossFit Paratus, to foster a community focused on health and well-being, including personal training and sports therapy.
I look forward to working with you.
OPTIMUM HUMANS
Hi, I’m Kylie, and I own Optimum Humans, proudly operating out of the Gloucester gym, CrossFit Paratus.
As a Level 5 Diploma qualified Sports Therapist, I specialize in the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of both sports-related and non-sports-related injuries. I am a member of the Sports Therapy Organisation (STO) and the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT), which means I hold recognized qualifications in both Sports Therapy and Nutrition, ensuring that I am fully insured to deliver a diverse range of treatments, as well as provide advice and guidance in these areas.
I primarily work as a soft tissue therapist, engaging in targeted clinical hands-on bodywork to assess how muscle and joints function. My approach includes various massage techniques and tools such as lymphatic drainage, dry needling, cupping, joint mobilizations, and assisted stretches. Additionally, I offer valuable advice for maintaining good movement and developing rehabilitation plans post-injury or for enhancing overall mobility. I'm also trained in Swedish, aromatherapy, and head massage for those seeking a more relaxing experience.
In conjunction with my sports therapy services, I provide dietary and lifestyle assessments using a food diary and Nutritics software, identifying areas for improvement in your diet. Besides running Optimum Humans, I am also a part-owner of TCC Endurance. As a seasoned multi-sport and endurance coach trained in psychology and counseling, I can assist you in pinpointing aspects of your lifestyle or mindset that may need adjustments. This support can lead to increased energy levels, a better work-life balance, or an improved relationship with your training. Additionally, I can help you achieve your exercise goals with a personalized training program tailored to your circumstances.
