OUR SERVICES
We provide therapies tailored to meet your needs.
Deep Tissue Massage
Whether you are a professional athlete, an amateur player or someone who likes to take part in sport just for fun, massage can help you to stay at the top of your game.
After an intense training session or before an important competition deep tissue massage will help to rectify any muscular or soft tissue related problems, allowing you to focus on the real task of winning.
It’s not only sports players and athletes who need to maintain their ability to perform at their best. If you have a manual job which continually puts your body under stress or you spend a lot of time working in one position, perhaps at a desk or driving a vehicle, then you may experience muscular pain and stiffness. Regular massage can help you to manage these occupational hazards allowing you to focus on the real issue of earning a living.
Perhaps you are an avid gardener who sometimes over does it or a musician with a gruelling practice and performance schedule, however you like to spend your time massage can help you do so comfortably.
Myoskeletal Alignment
The source of chronic pain for many arises from very common imbalances and dysfunctional patterns in the musculoskeletal system. Most chronic pain can be relieved with a combination of skilled manual therapy and intelligent corrective exercise.
The Myoskeletal Alignment Technique (MAT) system brings together the most advanced therapeutic strategies to relieve, and ultimately correct, patterns in the body that lead to pain and deterioration. With MAT therapy, clients can reduce pain, avoid invasive surgery and toxic pain medications.
The human body is comprised of structural systems, such as the anatomy of bones, connective tissue and nerves, as well as functional systems, such as the neural signals that trigger muscular contraction. These systems are inseparably connected in a continuous feedback loop. Without a thorough understanding of how these systems work together, most common musculoskeletal complaints are incorrectly assessed and treated.
MAT training teaches massage therapists how these brain / body systems work together, what problems lead to pain, and how to recreate optimal balance and performance
Therapeutic Massage
Sometimes stress, tension and just life in general catches up with us and we can end up feeling less than our best. Headaches, sore shoulders and general discomfort are often the result. A combination of deep tissue and alignment work to address any disfunction and build-up of tension followed by more gentle but firm massage techniques helps to maintain both physical and mental wellbeing.
This type of massage is also suitable during pregnancy (after the 1st trimester) and is often beneficial for nursing or new mothers whose bodies are adjusting to holding and lifting a baby or small child.
