Welcome to City Massage
Aromatherapy Massage
Aromatherapy massage is a gentle and therapeutic treatment using fragrant essential oils. Essential oils are extracted from flowers, leaves, barks, roots, seeds and resins, and they contain the active ingredient of the plant in a highly concentrated form. Each oil has its own therapeutic property, which has been used for thousands of years to treat a wide range of ailments, alleviate pain and regulate mood. Aromatherapy is recommended to treat conditions affecting the mind, body and emotions. It is an especially good treatment for insomnia, depression and PMT.
Aromatherapy should not be confused with fragrances or perfume oils. Fragrances are often made from chemicals, and lack the therapeutic properties of essential oils. There is more to aromatherapy than lighting a scented candle!

Indian Head Massage
Indian head massage is a relaxing and rejuvenating treatnient that reduces mental stress and also releases the accumulated tension in the upper back, the shoulders, neck, scalp and face. This massage has been done for thousands of years in India, and was introduced to the UK in 1973 when a traveling osteopath set about introducing a treatment that worked on and above the neck. It is particularly beneficial for mental fatigue, stress, anxiety, eyestrain, headaches, neck ache and insomnia. It also relaxes and tones the facial muscles and stimulates and nourishes the hair and scalp.
Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic Drainage Massage (LDM) is a gentle treatment that boosts the flow of lymph around your body, refreshing your immune system and flushing out toxins. Lymph is a clear, slightly yellow fluid that circulates throughout your body, carrying white blood cells and antibodies to your tissues and organs. The white blood cells and antibodies are essential to your immune system and help you fight infection and disease. LDM is a good treatment if you regularty get colds and flu. It is also the ideal treatment to reduce sinus congestion and water retention, puffiness and swelling in any part of the body. In Europe it is a popular beauty treatment used to reduce cellulite, dark circles around the eyes and clear up problem skin.
On-site
On-site massage (or chair massage) is a quick stress-relieving treatment, originally created for office-bound professionals. Based on traditional Japanese acupressure, it has three distinctive qualities. Firstly, the massage is performed over the clothes, without oil, ensuring modesty and convenience without any mess. Secondly, the client sits on a portable and ergonomic chair, especially designed for this type of massage. This means the massage can be done anywhere — in offices, airports, shopping centers, markets, trade shows and fiIn sets. Thirdly, it is a concise treatment, lasting between 15 -30 minutes. This is because your body goes into a deep relaxation mode after 30 minutes of massage, so a shorter treatment ensures that you will feel invigorated when you return to work.
Reflexology
Reulexology is a form of massage that focuses primarily on the feet. The principal theory behind reflexology is that there are reflex areas on the feet (and hands) that correspond to specific organs, glands and other parts of the body. Practitioners believe that by applying specific massage techniques and pressure points to these reflex areas, you can encourage balance and promote health in the corresponding parts of the body.
Archeological evidence has placed the origins of reflexology in China in 2704 BC, and ancient writings and paintings have shown that reflexology has been used by many other cultures throughout history. Today, reflexology is used for a wide range of diverse conditions, such as mental stress, muscular tension, headaches, digestive problems and PMT. Reflexology also helps to strengthen your body’s immune system, improve circulation and cleanse toxins.
Sports Massage
Sports massage is a treatment designed to help optimise your exercise / training program, prepare your body for optimal performance in athletic competition, and to warm up or aid recovery at your sports event. Whilst sports massage is ideally utilised to prevent physical imbalances from occurring, it is also the best treatment to choose if you have a specific problem concerning restricted motion, chronic pain or an injury.
