Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage reduces nerve hyperactivity, helps with relief of insomnia and is ideal for relieving stress. This healing massage is very beneficial to stroke patients. Those in remission or suffering stress caused by the side effects of chemotherapy can benefit enormously, as can patients experiencing
Rheumatoid arthritis and
gout. Patients suffering depression and anxiety will benefit from the release of endorphins this massage provides. It is suitable for all age groups, men, women and children.
Sports Massage
Sports Massage is an intense form of massage that helps prevent musculoskeletal injuries before and after games and weight training. In addition to treating injuries and relieving pain and swelling this massage improves recovery time by increasing blood flow to the muscles and increasing oxygenation. Injuries to the
Hamstring muscle,
Quad muscle tears and
Sacroiliac Joint injury respond very well to Sports Massage techniques. You don’t have to be an elite athlete to benefit from this form of massage – it is suitable for anyone who exercises.
Our highly trained Massage Therapists use a range of techniques, often combining Swedish, Sports and Remedial techniques in order to provide the maximum benefit to the patient.
Remedial Massage
Remedial means to restore or repair. It differs from Swedish massage in that it targets specific injuries by restoring homeostasis and full mobility of the body, bringing the body’s joints to full range of motion (ROM) and function and relieving muscle tension, allowing them to move freely without restriction. Like Sports massage, Remedial massage will improve circulation in the injured muscles, increasing oxygenation and promoting healing.
Remedial massage can be beneficial for those who experience
neck pain,
back pain,
knee pain,
hip pain,
headaches. Pain symptoms often present from sources of discomfort related to muscles, joints, and connective tissue which can be relieved with Remedial Massage.
