What is massage? Why massage?
Massage is one of the world’s oldest therapies for treating human ills. It is the systematic manipulation of soft tissues, Mainly the muscles. It benefits circulatory, muscular & nervous systems.
Massage is an excellent method for reducing stress, inducing relaxation, as well as energising the system. It can help maintain good health. Since reducing stress improves the immune system, the use of touch is so powerful, evoking natural human reactions that calm the body both physically & mentally.
How will remedial massage help?
Remedial massage is used to assist the body in healing and remedy tissue disfunction. It combines kneading movements with acupressure to treat specific trouble spots responsible for chronic pain, repetitive strain injury, digestive problems, PMT, headaches, migraines, muscles in trauma (i.e. bad backs), stress, anxiety, fatigue, posture, muscle tone, energy, circulation and lymphatic drainage to encourage the disposal of waste from muscles and helps to reduce swelling and improve range of movement . Various techniques are used to help to assist the body, i.e. trigger point therapy, cross fibre friction, deep tissue massage, lymphatic drainage, myofascial release, reflexology, compression & craniosacral therapy.
Sports massage is used to boost performance to aid athletes in training both before and after a competition or workout for muscle flexibility & circulation which help the muscles to prepare for the forthcoming task and activity thus reducing the risk of injury.
