Types of massages

Deep tissue and remedial massage

When you’re suffering aches and pains from soft tissues that have stuck together or become tight or knotted, deep tissue massage can be a great way of releasing them or breaking them down.

Just one thirty minute massage will reduce your sore and tender spots and leave you feeling revitalised.

This type of massage can be pretty intense compared to others you might be used to. Our massage practitioners will apply much more pressure to get the required effect – especially with techniques like ‘trigger point release’. The initial intensity will gradually fade as your muscles become more relaxed.

Deep tissue massage is highly effective in reducing high blood pressure, scar tissue build up, pain symptoms, and the effects of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).

It can also increase joint mobility, help with arthritic pain and symptoms, and support muscular rehab.

Shoulder and neck massage

Most people get headaches for three main reasons – too much caffeine, not enough water, or tension through the shoulders and neck.

So drink less coffee and more water, obviously … but what about the head tension?

Poor posture sitting or standing at work or being in the car for long periods leads to muscular tension. Equally, when we get stressed we tend to clench our jaw and breathe differently. This puts a lot of pressure on our neck muscles. That tension from the neck has a direct effect on head tension and headaches.

That’s where shoulder and neck massage comes in. After just one session you’ll realise how tight your neck muscles actually are and how much better they feel afterwards. After a few short sessions you’ll really feel the difference. After that, maintenance sessions every now and again will keep the headaches away.

Maintenance massage

Keeping up with regular deep tissue massages is a great way to recover after a particularly labour- intensive day at work, or if you’ve had a hard training session at the gym.

Regular deep tissue massage will improve the quality of blood flow to your muscles as well as muscle quality itself. This means that when you train you’ll be less likely to get injured, less likely to get DOMS, and you’ll be able to work harder than ever before.

And like many of our competitive clients, regular sessions will help you stay at the top of your game and perform at your very best.

Sports therapy massage

If you have suffered an injury from a sport, then seeing a sports therapist for massage can be extremely beneficial and provide you with long term gains in your performance.

We use a range of sports therapy massage techniques to establish a bespoke treatment plan for you.

A sports massage will aim to reduce muscular tension and increase circulation, plus it removes waste from the muscles.

“After ACL reconstruction surgery I saw Ella regularly for a prolonged period and she got me from barely able to walk to now being 95% of the way back to pre-injury exercises. She was very thorough in every session and always gave achievable exercises to do in between sessions. I have been very happy with the progress made thanks to Ella!”

“A very good service – totally understand my condition and the need for a maintenance massage. I would totally recommend.”

Our approach

Here at Body Consultancy, we offer 3 phases of care which will help to treat, stablise and maintain your condition:

Treat

We believe in working with the whole person – not just the painful area. So we’ll spend time really understanding not only your current symptoms but your daily activities, interests, experiences and goals.

Stablise

We’ll advise you on what needs to change in the way you, move and hold yourself so that your problem doesn’t re-occur. We’ll help you build new habits to support your continued progress to full mobility and movement.

Maintain

This ongoing phase is usually especially important for conditions we refer to as chronic (over 6 months), sub-acute (over 3 months) or acute (last few weeks) with significant re-occurring previous episodes.

How much will massage therapy cost?

Once you have met one of our massage therapists for your complimentary consultation, we will be able to provide you with a plan based on your requirements.
