Massage can help your body and mind to go into rest and repair mode. Emotional, mental and physical tension is stored in the muscle tissue, and skilled massage applied to the soft tissue encourages the muscular and nervous systems to relax, helping release stress and tension.

Massage relieves pain and spasm, helps reduce fluid retention, stretches tight tendons and increases blood supply. It can also increase blood flow, and keep your lymphatic system working at peak efficiency, flushing out toxins from your body.

Our therapists offer a variety of massage treatment sessions in the clinic including sports / deep tissue massage, holistic and Indian head massage, all tailored to your needs.

Holistic massage works on the whole person, body and mind, to promote relaxation and a greater sense of wellbeing.

The effect of sports massage depends on the type of massage used. During a deep tissue massage, the therapist applies slow but firm pressure to reach deeper layers of the muscle and the fascia. It penetrates and softens the hard, tight muscles.

Indian head massage uses a variety of massage techniques to work on the upper back, shoulders, arms, neck, scalp and face to promote a deep sense of relaxation.

For most massage treatments you will need to remove some items of clothing. Your therapist will advise you on that and leave the room for you to get changed. You will be provided with towels to cover yourself on the couch and to keep warm. Extra covers and a heated couch cover will be available during the treatment if required.

Feel free to bring your own towels with you for use on the treatment couch during the session if you prefer.
