Massage Therapy
Massage is a kind and nurturing way to promote healing, wellbeing and relaxation. Manipulating the tissues increases circulation, warming and lengthening soft tissues to release areas of tension, fibrosis and discomfort and help lymphatic drainage.
Massage can be dynamic and very active or gentle and de-stressing so can help in a wide variety of conditions from frozen shoulder, muscle spasms or sciatica to stress based digestive issues, constipation or lack of sleep. It can be a vital part of a wholistic approach to your wellbeing.
Modern life puts an enormous strain on our bodies with high levels of day to day stress, fast pace of life, not always ideal nutrition and general wear and tear. Regular massage could be considered an investment in ourselves and our health, helping us to maintain our body’s ability to adapt and function in a fast-paced world.
