Sports Massage is a therapy which helps alleviate the effects of stress and tension on the musculoskeletal system. Tension in muscles can build up following physical activity or after prolonged periods of postural stress (eg sitting). This can be released by techniques such as deep tissue massage, cross-friction and trigger point therapy. Although Sports Massage was originally developed to help athletes recover from intense exercise, to restore their flexibility and strength to enable them to train again more quickly, it can be used by everyone to loosen up and feel better. It is important to reduce the cumulative effects of postural tension and massage is a good way to do that.

Holistic massage is a selection of techniques designed to help relieve emotional as well as physical tension which is often stored in our musculoskeletal system. Massage helps to remove toxins from the body and provides an improved sense of well being and relaxation. Stress can build up and contribute to a compromised immune system as well as causing generalised aches and pains. Health of Mind and Body should not be understated, to be well we should take care of both. We have a fully qualified Sports and Holistic Massage Therapist who will be able to advise you on an appropriate massage for you eg a gentle Swedish Massage or a more firm Deep Tissue Massage.
