What type of massage do you need?

There are several different types of massage. I am University trained and professionally qualified in a range of techniques. The choice of massage style is based on the type of ailment and, of course, your personal preference.

Remedial Massage

Remedial massage has short and long-term effects on the body, encouraging the process of healing, both physically and psychologically. It is one of the most popular forms of massage therapy as it addresses the aches, pains and injury you may feel in your day-to-day life. Remedial massage relieves stress and tension and leaves you feeling revitalized. A variety of techniques are used during remedial massage.

Remedial Hot Stone Fusion Massage

Imagine a deep, relaxing remedial massage – now add hot stones – spreading that warmth deep into your muscles. A remedial stone fusion massage is an experience you won’t want to miss! A blend of personalised remedial massage techniques to alleviate body aches and pain, combined with the deep, soothing heat of smooth oiled basalt stones used remedially to melt away stress and tension from the body and mind. This massage is deeply relaxing and nurturing, whilst also alleviating sore and tight muscles and joints. Remedial hot stone fusion massage is available as 1 or 1.5 hour treatments.

Pregnancy Massage

Massage is just perfect during pregnancy. The massage is performed with the Mother lying on her side and supported with pillows. It is the perfect choice for alleviating aches and pains caused by the shifting of weight of the body during pregnancy, supporting circulation, decreasing swelling and is drug free! Massage during pregnancy reduces those aching muscles, induces a wonderful sense of calm and is nourishing and emotionally supportive for the Mother. Heavenly!

 Dry Needling Plus

Dry Needling Plus is a form of musculoskeletal dry needling using acupuncture needles. Dry needling is a very effective way of relieving tight areas of muscle tissue that are too sensitive or painful to treat through deep tissue massage. Dry needling is typically used in conjunction with remedial massage.

What to expect

Please allow extra time in addition to your appointment to fill in your client questionnaire and to prepare yourself for your treatment and to re-dress, as your booked appointment time is completely hands on.

Once you arrive at the clinic you will be asked to fill out a Client Questionnaire, which is where you record your medical history, past and present injuries and other physical conditions I should be made aware of. I will then enquire about the reason(s) you are coming for a massage, what outcomes you would like from your treatment, your current physical condition and any specific areas in which you are experiencing pain or would like addressed during your massage and answer any questions you may have concerning your treatment.

I will then leave the room and wait outside while you disrobe to your briefs and lay on the massage table under towels provided. I will give you a few minutes to do this and will knock on the door to ask if you are ready before entering your room.

You will always be draped with freshly laundered towels during your massage session with only the part of the body that I am working on uncovered, ensuring that your modesty is respected at all times.

There will be soothing music playing during your treatment unless otherwise requested. I will ask you periodically for feedback on pressure and your level of comfort. At any time during your treatment please feel free to ask questions or let me know if you are not comfortable. Your massage will be customized utilising varied techniques to suit your needs.

Once your massage therapy session is completed, I will leave the room so you may re-dress. I will knock on the door to ask if you are ready before re-entering your room.
