Sports Massage - needed  if you have soreness or an injury be it from work, playing sport, postural issues, an accident or perhaps a sore neck from sleeping awkwardly The practitioner will use a host of techniques to effect a positive change in the tissues such as: muscle energy techniques, positional release, trigger point work, post isometric relaxation, deep tissue work and myofascial release etc.

Maintenance Massage - also called a preventative massage and is not just for runners and other athletes as most people in all walks of life can find this to be of benefit.  This is a regular often once per month massage which either addresses known imbalances or dysfunctions in the tissues or acts as a check up and try to catch problems before they become an issue.  If there are dysfunctions found the therapist can then tackle them with their toolbox of treatment techniques.

Relaxing Massage - Often a whole body massage that is a little gentler than other treatments. Mostly made up of the basic strokes of effleurage & petrissage, kneading and gentle stretching.

 

 Rehabilitation - getting a massage treatment is only half the story.  Much more important is the changes a client can make to prevent the original dysfunction reoccurring, to help speed up recovery or to improve posture.  This is often achieved by giving targeted exercises and stretches as well as giving lifestyle advice.
