Therapeutic Massage 

Who is it for: 

Therapeutic massage can be tailored to your goal, whether that is to reduce stress, improve blood circulation and reduce pain, relieve muscle aches, improve your sleep or mood.

​

Great for both athletes looking to improve performance/aid recovery or and those who work at a desk for long periods, resulting in tight back muscles and pain.

​

Treatment plan: 

All plans are tailored to each individual needs and requirements. Some use therapeutic massage as a one-off treatment, for a stress relief, however most benefit will be gained from having a course of treatment. 

For treatment of a maximum benefits, we recommend 4 treatments over a 2- 3-month period, prior to switching to a maintenance plan

​

If deemed necessary other remedial techniques such as cupping, trigger point therapy etc can be incorporated into your therapy plan to ensure you get the full desired results
