| Therapeutic Massage Massage can be suitable to aid relaxation or to treat many problems, including muscular pain, injuries, tension and stiffness. Therapeutic massage tends to focus on the problem areas, and may be deeper than other massages. The massage may be a full body massage, however the session can be tailored to the areas that need most work: often the neck, back, shoulders or legs. Each session is preceded by a short consultation in order to tailor the massage to the client.
Therapeutic massage may also be a relaxing, stress relieving treatment and is suitable for people without specific problems.
What to Expect
Massage is normally performed on a couch and the client will undress to their underwear
Massage oils (e.g. Sweet almond oil) is used to allow the therapist to massage the client using, thumbs, fingers, hands and elbows.
Treatments normally last an hour

To make the most of the massage rest or take it easy after the treatment
Healing reactions caused by the release of toxins or emotions may be experienced. It is important to drink water after the treatment to help flush out the released toxins from the body.
