Therapeutic Body Massage

A therapeutic body massage aims to relax both mind and body and encourage reduction in stress levels and to aid in the relief of any minor muscular and/or joint problems that may be present.

​

A variety of massage strokes and percussive actions is used to induce calm and relaxation and to address any minor musculoskeletal issues using appropriately pressured strokes and techniques.

​

The treatment is designed to engage the body's own healing and stress reduction mechanisms at the same time as reducing any physical tension in the muscles and other soft tissues of the body.

​

You will be treated unclothed on a massage couch using large soft towels for privacy and comfort and I will use appropriate warm oils to massage each area of your body sequentially: back and shoulders, legs, arms, abdomen and lastly the face.  

​

I will always discuss your treatment with you and you may choose to omit parts of the routine to enable me to focus on specific areas.

​

I offer a 60 minute or 90 minute treatment.

​

Please note that a therapeutic body massage is not designed to address musculoskeletal issues arising from exercise or sports, although minor muscular tension may be addressed.
