Massage Therapy

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.

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.

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.
