About Norhayati Ahmad, Principal Sports & Deep Tissue Massage Therapist

Practicing from Serangoon, Fridays and Sundays, and Jurong East · English, Bahasa Melayu and Bahasa Indonesia

  • Basic Sports Trainer (SSMC@SSI)
  • Certificate in Sports Massage (SSC)

Sports and deep tissue massage at Phoenix Rehab is led by Norhayati Ahmad, who has worked with Singapore’s current and retired national athletes since 2009. She treats tight necks, shoulders, calves and backs every day, and massage here runs alongside your physiotherapy or hand therapy rather than separately from it, so the treatment and the rehabilitation pull in the same direction.

Norhayati has been a part-time Sports Trainer with Sport Singapore (2010-2019), SSMC@SSI (2019 to present) and FAS (2014-2020), alongside freelance work as a sports trainer and masseur. She has represented the Singapore Medical Team as a Sports Trainer at major sporting events since 2010.

Major events she has worked at

  • Youth Olympic Games (2010), Singapore
  • Asian Youth Games (2013), Nanjing, China
  • SEA Games (2013 Myanmar, 2015 Singapore, 2023 Cambodia)
  • ASEAN Para Games (2023), Cambodia
  • Asian Games (2014 Incheon, South Korea; 2023 Hangzhou, China)
  • Asian Para Games (2023), Hangzhou, China
  • Pre-event preparation for the 2010 Olympics table tennis team
  • Paralympic preparation (2016, 2021, 2024)
  • Singapore Army Shooting Team (2015 Thailand, 2018 Malaysia)
  • HSBC Rugby Sevens South Africa Team (2016 to 2019), Singapore
  • WWE wrestlers (2015, 2017, 2019), Singapore
  • World Para Athletics (2023), Paris, France

She also worked with the Netball and Women’s Hockey teams in international competition between 2011 and 2015.

In her own words

  • “If they have the energy to push themselves to their limit, I will push myself to have the energy to help them.”
  • “It is an honour to be of service to the nation, and very rewarding to see them breaking records and on the podium.”

Where this sits

This work runs alongside the clinical rehabilitation rather than in place of it. Massage therapy covers what I do, and the physiotherapists and hand therapists I work beside are here. Their plans run on the Phoenix Recovery Protocol.

Book with me directly

Last reviewed 6 October 2026. Massage therapy at Phoenix Rehab is a supporting treatment and is not a substitute for physiotherapy, hand therapy or medical assessment.

Amazing experience with Phoenix Rehab, was assisted by Mavis. She’s very kind and professional and did thorough check on my wrist. I feel very comfortable during the process. I went in for thermoplastic splint, and everything went smoothly. She was able to address my needs on my left wrist sprain. They were prompt with appointment process and inquiry. Also the clinic is very close to Tanjong Pagar MRT. I highly recommend!

Great treatment from my therapist. My painful wrist felt a lot of relief after the session. I’m glad I can slowly get back to doing my usual activities without constant pain.

I wasn’t able to close my fingers due to an injury. Nurul at Phoenix Rehab has helped me tremendously with my recovery process. I have been able to resume my daily activities and exercises after only a few sessions. Nurul has been very professional and positive throughout the entire process. Thank you so much for your help!

Huge shoutout to Yuna Zhang from Phoenix Rehab for helping in my recovery from golfer’s elbow 🙌 I walked in with persistent elbow pain that was affecting workouts and everyday tasks, and Yuna immediately made me feel confident I was in the right hands. She took the time to properly assess my condition, explain the root cause, and tailor a treatment plan to my specific needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach. What I really appreciated was how personalised every session felt. The exercises she gave me were practical, easy to follow, and actually worked. Within a short time, the pain reduced significantly and my strength and mobility improved much faster than I expected. On top of that, the pricing is very reasonable and affordable, which made committing to recovery much easier. Professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring — highly recommend Yuna at Phoenix Rehab if you’re dealing with hand-related sports injuries 💪
