Mobile Massage Oxfordshire has been named a finalist in the Best Mobile Business category at The UK Small Business Awards 2026, representing Oxfordshire on a national stage.

The recognition celebrates a business built around a straightforward idea: professional massage should be accessible without requiring clients to travel to a clinic or spa. Qualified and insured therapists bring the massage table, oils and equipment directly to homes, hotels and workplaces, allowing clients to enjoy a carefully arranged treatment in familiar surroundings.

From one therapist to a multi-county network

The service began with founder Julian Frincu working as a single mobile therapist. As demand increased, the business gradually developed a wider network to provide more appointment choices, broader geographical coverage and access to both male and female professionals.

Today, the network includes 19 therapists serving clients across Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Northamptonshire and Gloucestershire. Appointments are available seven days a week for individuals, couples, groups, hotel guests and workplace clients.

That growth has been achieved while retaining the personal approach on which the service was founded. Enquiries are still handled around each client’s location, preferred treatment, availability and individual requirements, with suitable therapists contacted directly.

“Being selected as a finalist is a proud moment for everyone involved. What began with one therapist has become a trusted network of 19 professionals, and that growth would not have been possible without our therapists, clients and the people who have recommended us.”

Julian Frincu — Founder, Mobile Massage Oxfordshire

Recognition shared with the whole team

The finalist announcement recognises more than the growth of the business. It also reflects the work of the therapists who travel to clients, prepare professional equipment and adapt each appointment to the individual.

Mobile services depend on reliability, organisation and communication. Therapists must manage travel, setup and treatment time while maintaining professional standards in a variety of locations. The award recognition therefore belongs to the wider team as well as the business itself.

Clients have also played a central part. Repeat bookings, recommendations and reviews have helped the service reach more people throughout Oxfordshire and build trust in a model that brings professional treatments directly to the customer.

Featured by the Oxford Mail

The achievement has also been reported by the Oxford Mail, giving the business independent local recognition. Its coverage highlights the finalist selection and the development of Mobile Massage Oxfordshire from a one-person service into a network operating across four counties.

Continuing to serve Oxfordshire

While the award is an opportunity to reflect on the progress made, the priority remains providing a convenient and professional service to clients. Mobile Massage Oxfordshire will continue developing its therapist network, strengthening local availability and helping people arrange treatments at home, in hotels and at suitable workplaces.

The business offers Swedish and relaxation massage, deep tissue massage, sports massage, lymphatic drainage massage, reflexology and other services subject to the availability and training of an appropriate therapist.

Julian added: “This recognition gives us even more motivation to keep improving. Thank you to every therapist who represents the business professionally and every client who has booked, supported or recommended us.”
