Swedish Relaxation Massage
An excellent massage when feeling stressed, tired or anxious. Relaxation massage is typically a flowing massage comprised of long soothing strokes, deeper kneading pressure and can include tapotement and vibrational technqiues. Relaxation massage is designed to soothe the nervous system, lower blood pressure, improve circulation, flush lactic acid an metabolic waste, stimulate the skin and induce the Relaxation Response. A highlight of relaxation massage is that attention is given to areas such as feet, head, hands, face and head.
Deep Tissue
Deep Tissue Massage uses Swedish techniques as the base so tissues are still warmed well and there is a flow to the massage that induces a sense of relaxation. Areas of tension are worked more deeply using cross fibre mobilisation, trigger point, deeper compression, stretches and produces a feeling of "Good Pain". We always use a pain scale to ensure we work within your pain threshold and clients must provide feedback in this process. Excellent for general stiffness and tension, after exercise, and old injury flare ups. Deep tissue will help with mobility, blood flow, toning, and flexibility.
Sports Massage
Sports massage is technically massage administered pre or post event, usually within the hour. However many sports people benefit greatly from a regular massage focussed on the specific needs that are generated from their sporting activities. Techniques are drawn from Deep Tissue and Remedial, often with more of a focus on lengthening and releasing muscles. Met's and PNF stretches are of particular benefit. When you book a Sports Treatment be sure to ask us for a Stretching Routine based around your sport and fitness level.
Remedial
Remedial Massage involves postural assessment to identify muscles imbalances. Imbalances can be caused by hypertonic (tight) or hypotonic (weak) muscles, fascia tension, or bone mis-alignement. An assessment may involve checking leg length, spine and hip alignement, range of motion and asking about the client's general activity. Remedial massage has more of a focus on helping specific problems such as frozen shoulder, tendonitis, decreased flexibility, and injuries.Techniques used include Myofascial Release (MFR), Trigger Point, Acupressure, Cross Fibre Mobilisation and Positional Releases, PNF Stretches, Met's.
