Massage – What’s It About?

Problems it can help with

Pain relief – if you are desk-bound and hunched over a computer, or if you have injuries related to your sport, a massage will allow you to improve your posture and heal those micro-injuries on the field.  Particularly useful if you play tennis, ride or run, where the same postural issues reoccur and can lead to more deep-rooted issues.

Flexibility – not just for yoga, flexibility is an invaluable aid to living your life the way you want to, and do the things that you love without being restricted because “I don’t bend that way”.

Stress relief – we are living in a world of increased stress, looking after everyone else and you need to actually be well enough to handle that.  A massage, perhaps with scented oil to help relaxation and de-stressing, can help you let go of everyday challenges, to be better prepared to face them afterwards.

Future-proofing your body – have you ever heard the saying that the best time to start a healthy regime is ten years ago, but the next best time is now?  Spring is far better to start this rather that the New Year, when it’s cold and dark, and you just feel a bit “meh” in general and less motivated.

Benefits

You get to feel comfortable in your body, sore bits soothed and concerns addressed without having to see a doctor or person in a white coat.

You get a whole hour to focus on you.  We’re here to look after you, and make you feel better, not only physically but mentally, by being a totally discreet listening ear, and also at your very core – that person who gets lost in among everyone else and the busy-ness of life.

Every massage comes with a free moisturising treatment!  We only use the most luxurious oils, and if you would like a really deeply moisturising treatment all over, that doesn’t need you to feel all sticky afterwards, we can help.  We can also get to those areas you can’t reach – especially if there’s nobody at home to get that bit between your shoulders.

If you choose aromatherapy, not only do you get to leave feeling soothed and relaxed, and smelling wonderful, but the oils are blended especially for you – we don’t use pre-blended oils, meaning that we can tune into exactly how you want to feel, and help you get there.

We are exclusive.  We’re not part of a chain, each of our therapists works with you and your body, so there is no cookie-cutter routine which sometimes feels impersonal.  All of us have at least 15 years’ experience as bodywork experts.

Our surroundings – we are situated at the edge of the town centre, very close to easy parking, in a stunning 19th century converted chapel.  It’s tranquil, calm, and if we say so ourselves, beautiful, and smells wonderfully of incense.  Even our postie says they feel chilled out just delivering our mail!
