Essential oils can be beneficial for those suffering from general stress and anxiety, insomnia, general pain conditions or for an additional wellbeing boost to your normal massage treatment. Aromatherapy massage is not recommended during pregnancy unless a referral from your GP has been obtained.

Ayurvedic massages: In our fast-paced lives, it’s crucial to carve out moments of tranquility to maintain balance and health. Ayurvedic massage, also known as abhyanga, is grounded in the principles of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medical system. These massage techniques seek to harmonize the body’s energy and enhance overall wellness. Ayurvedic massage utilizes specific oils, rhythmic strokes, and targeted pressure points to activate the body’s natural healing processes.

This is normally a very relaxing treatment that helps to relieve muscle pain and tension, improve flexibility and reduce stress, and can help with the healing process of certain injuries.

These massages are specially adapted to take into consideration the anatomical changes that a mum-to-be is going through during the different stages of pregnancy. Massages during pregnancy will help to relax tight muscles, stimulate blood and lymphatic flow which can all have a positive effect on sleep, joint and muscle pains, cramps, swelling, headaches etc.
Sports massage: Sports massage is designed to help athletes and active clients with their physical performance and faster recovery times. Each client’s needs and goals are taken into account with these tailor-made treatments. Many different massage techniques can be utilized under the heading of sports massage and depending on the client’s needs may include a combination of Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, active release technique, trigger point therapy, cupping and medical acupuncture.

Traditional Thai massage: Traditional Thai massage is like no other massage… combining acupressure, assisted yoga postures and energy work it leaves you feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, stretched and energised. This massage is usually done on a mat on the floor, does not utilize massage oils or creams, and the client remains fully clothed throughout the treatment.

Lifestyle Approach = Increased Benefits

Getting a massage can do you a world of good. And getting a massage frequently can do even more. Taking part in this form of regularly scheduled self-care can play a big part in your overall health and wellbeing, and if you are an athlete… your sports performance and recovery time. Budgeting time and money for massage at consistent intervals is truly an investment in your health.

Just because massage feels like a pampering treat doesn’t mean it is any less therapeutic. Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health and wellness plan, and work with your practitioner to establish a treatment schedule that best meets your needs.
