SPORTS AND REMEDIAL MASSAGE
 




SPORTS & REMEDIAL MASSAGE
The techniques of sports massage are not just applicable to sports activity. They could be useful for your occupation or lifestyle whether active or not.​
Originating in the swedish massage discipline, sports or remedial massage can sometimes be a deeper and more intense manipulation of soft tissues but it has also developed to encompass other soft tissue techniques including stretching, muscle energy techniques and trigger point techniques and more.


CHOOSE SPORTS MASSAGE...


So whether sport is your daily obsession or your lifestyle is more sedentary, a deep tissue or sports massage can make a significant difference to your physical and mental well-being, not to mention how you perform every day in work and play.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

Deep tissue massage also uses swedish massage techniques techniques in the treatment and prevention of tension, anxiety, pain and injury. The stimulation of blood flow and those lovely endorphins supports flexibility in the joints, muscles and fascia helping to maintain balance and a sense of well-being. Perhaps you feel so tightly wound up that you might break at any minute, or you enjoy deep tissue massage to maintain a healthy lifestyle - this will get deep into the knots to help you step back in time with your life and start breathing again.

CHOOSE DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE...

For relieving symptoms of stress and anxiety such as tension headaches, lower back pain, shallow breathing, tight neck and shoulders.  Book a 30, 45 or 60 minute session which on your first appointment should include a case history and postural assessment.

All first appointments will include an assessment that reviews relevant medical background, specific issues that you want addressed, and some postural assessment. This is conducted in an informal, friendly and confidential manner so that you can be confident the treatment is about you individually. This can take 15-20 minutes usually and is part of your first treatment time. Subsequent sessions will make a brief review or check-up against your initial presentation but this is normally brief, again depending on the individual.
