Therapeutic Massage works on many different levels, with each technique used having a slightly different focus.It is a natural source of pain relief and helps to stimulate the body's own healing abilities.
Best results are achieved by tailoring the massage session to your individual needs, and so the technique, depth and pressure of the massage will be altered to achieve the goals set during your pre-massage assessment.
Generally the aim is to re-establish balance by improving circulation, soft tissue flexibility, and to promote relaxation by relieving tension.
So your massage may be a relaxing or an energising full body massage, or the session may be designed to focus on areas needing the most attention e.g. neck and shoulder tension or softening hard fibrous areas in tissue.
