I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach in regards to massage or bodywork, we are all individuals and an effective treatment needs to be tailored to meet your needs on any particular day.

Advanced Clinical Massage
​

Pain is the body's way of telling you something is wrong! Are you suffering from aches and pains or seeking faster recovery following injury or surgery? Using the most up to date and effective techniques I aim to support and speed up your body's own repair mechanisms.

Many people have the misconception that remedial and deep tissue massage is all about the "no pain, no gain" factor and if the practitioner goes deep and hard enough the pain and muscle tension will go away, this is not the case. Although in a deep tissue massage the emphasis is more on realigning the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue and releasing muscular restriction, you should leave feeling relaxed and taller. I strive to make the treatment as indulgent as possible, whilst I get to the source of the problem.

Clinical Massage Therapy is designed to assist in the healing process and to target muscle imbalance and dysfunction in a holistic way. Highly effective clinical massage techniques release tension, stiffness and pain from damaged, restricted or knotted muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and joints. 

Advanced Clinical Massage is beneficial in the treatment of many conditions, these include but are not limited to-

~Headaches and migraines 
~Whiplash
~Frozen shoulder
~Chronic low back pain
~Neck and shoulder pain
~Sciatica 
~Piriformis Syndrome
~Golfers Elbow
~Tennis Elbow
~Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
~Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
~Leg, knee and foot pain
~Hip and pelvis pain

Utilising the most up to date and effective massage and bodywork techniques to bring a reduction in pain conditions within 1-6 weekly treatments, (the number of sessions may vary depending on the problem) treatment may include trigger point therapy, soft tissue release (STR), myofascial release, stretching and amma. To find out more about the massage and bodywork techniques that I use during treatment please click on the sub-heading Bodywork Techniques. Following a consultation at the beginning of your treatment we will discuss and plan what is best suited for what you come in with and what you want to achieve from the massage treatment.
Clients will also benefit from having monthly maintenance sessions to keep painful conditions under control and prevent recurrence of the problem.
Advanced clinical massage works in a holistic way so I aim to treat you as a whole person not just your symptoms, aftercare may be discussed with you which may include stretches, exercises and relaxation techniques which allows you to be in control of your own health and pinpoint the cause of your pain and discomfort.
