Massage involves working the soft tissue of the body, to ease day-to-day stresses and muscular tension, and promote relaxation. It helps to increase delivery of blood and oxygen to the treated areas and can also be used in support of other therapies to assist in the rehabilitation of muscular injuries.

Deep tissue massage relieves aches and pains that can arise from repetitive day-to-day activities or from periods of prolonged inactivity. These include back pain, stiff necks and posture-related problems and headaches. As we slowly lose our battle against gravity, changes in our posture result in the body’s inability to heal a problem. Add to that the chemical imbalance stress causes in our bodies, it’s no wonder we go home tried and aching after doing nothing all day. Deep Tissue Massage works wonders in these instances.

Sports massage has its base in recovery of an Injury, in the rehabilitation of the client’s injury and in preventing injury at the outset of physical work whether by a sporting or life style activity.

Reflexology is based on the principle that reflex points on the soles, tops, and sides of the feet correspond to different areas of the body. In this way, the feet can be seen as a ‘map’ of the body. By applying specialised massage techniques to specific reflex points - using the thumbs, fingers and knuckles – the aim of a reflexology treatment is to help restore balance to the body naturally, and improve the client’s general well-being.
