Massage as a healing tool has been around for thousands of years in many cultures. Regular therapeutic massage strengthens and tones the entire body system. It can stimulate and alternately calm the nervous system, help to ease tension, stiffness and pain leaving you with an enhanced sense of well being. It not only feels good but it can help relieve some of the symptoms that ail you.
It is important to communicate to your therapist your main reason for scheduling the massage whether it is to reduce anxiety, for pure relaxation or if you are searching for relief from an injury. This will enable your treatment to be customised using a combination of deep tissue, acupressure and Swedish massage techniques and give you exactly what you need. Sessions can be booked for between 30 and 60 minutes depending on your particular requirements. During the massage you will be covered with towels at all times and only the area of body being worked on will be exposed ensuring complete privacy.
Massage lowers your blood pressure, increases circulation, improves recovery from injury, helps you to sleep better and can increase your concentration. It reduces fatigue and gives you more energy to handle stressful situations. A professional massage is more than an ordinary back rub. The whole point of a therapeutic massage is to release tension, work out the kinks and help your body relax so it can function at an optimal level. All of this work stretches muscles, pushes blood into them and gets things working again.
