Remedial Massage Therapy.

This type of clinical physical therapy utilises deep tissue massage
and mobilisation techniques on localised areas of your body.

Remedial massage therapy covers both muscular & skeletal dysfunctions including:

arthritis
back pain
frozen shoulder
headaches
General muscular and joint aches and pains
muscular atrophy
muscular cramps
repetitive strain injury
sciatica
sports and dancing injuries
sprains and strains
spondylitis
whiplash
etc.

Remedial massage therapy may take between 20 & 30 minutes, depending largely on the extent of your dysfunctions.

It is also governed by the amount of treatment that your body can realistically handle at one time. Too much treatment given at one time can be as ineffective as giving too little treatment.

It is often the case that the earlier we can get onto your dysfunction the sooner it is sorted out. Long term dysfunctions can take a while to treat, simply because they have been accepted by your body as being normal.

Please note:- It is sometimes possible to get your fees for remedial massage therapy reimbursed if your dysfunction is the result of an accident involving an insurance claim.

Full Body Therapeutic Massage

Full body massage therapy helps to reduce your tension and body toxin levels
by stimulating and balancing the systems of your body; whilst at the same time awakening and stimulating your natural inner healing. Thus promoting deep relaxation, a cleared mind and enhanced self-awareness.

This natural, extensive, physical therapy treatment works holistically to treat the whole person.

This full body therapeutic massage is designed to soothe your tired muscles and reduce your stress levels, by counteracting the relentless surge of work and other pressures.

Being a more gentle treatment than the remedial massage therapy you just need to lie back, relax and have all the hard work done for you.

A full body massage treatment is an excellent restorative after a protracted illness, flu, ME (Myalgic encephalomyelitis), or any condition that drains and exhausts you on all levels.

Full body therapeutic treatments take between 50 - 60minutes.

Remember
life may take it out of you
but regular effective massage therapy
helps to put it back.
