What main concerns do you treat?

Muscle and postural discomfort due to Pregnancy. 

Swelling and Edema using Lymphatic Drainage massage techniques

Sore neck, shoulders and low back pain as well as general aches and pains throughout the whole body.

What is your Philosophy?

Modern life is challenging, we are drawn in so many directions physically, emotionally, work, home life, socially, travel, and even online communications can leave us feeling tired, sore and fatigued. If these symptoms are left untreated your Health and Wellness will deteriorate. How you nurture your Wellness is your choice, by incorporating Massage into your healthcare I can help nurture, heal and educate you to a path of optimal health. 

What sort of guarantee can you put on your service?

I will work within your boundaries to make sure you are comfortable throughout the treatment whilst providing specific care to meet your needs. If I feel your condition needs additional alternative treatment I will refer you to another discipline practitioner to further help in your recovery.

What value added services or products can you add onto consultations?

Each treatment is focused on you and what you want to achieve on your journey to better improve your health and wellbeing. 

Provide you with post treatment advice and home maintenance care to further enhance the benefits of massage treatment

What is the potential impact of not seeing you?

Symptoms and degeneration of your muscles will return. If you stop going to the gym or discontinue physical activity your fitness will decrease, same will apply to your general Wellness. Be proactive and allow massage to continue to nourish and help heal your mind and body.

What would a normal treatment involve?

Prior to treatment a healthy history / current health concerns discussion and range of movement assessment of your body.

Treatment will incorporate techniques suitable to relieve pain, tightness, stiffness, dysfunction, help correct posture or relaxation. Each treatment is unique, it’s focused around you and what your body needs.

Sometimes home advice is given, I may recommend stretching exercises, lifestyle changes and what you can do away from massage table to increase your Health and Wellbeing.

How many sessions will I need?

After an initial consult we will discuss what you want to achieve, how I feel we can get to that goal and the massage sessions required. Ideally our final goal will be for you to only require maintenance treatments which could be every 4-6 weeks.
