Sports Massage
Sports Massage is a form of massage involving the manipulation of soft tissue to benefit a person engaged in regular physical activity. Soft tissue is connective tissue that has not hardened into bone and cartilage and includes skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia ( a form of connective tissue that lines and ensheathes the other soft tissues).Sports massage is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue that are caused from repetitive and strenuous physical activity and trauma. The application of sports massage, prior to and after exercise, may enhance performance, aid recovery and prevent injury.
Whether you are suffering from back pain, muscle injury or stress? sports and remedial massage is not just for sports people, whether your a marathon runner an office worker or mum -to -be , massage can relieve pain, facilitate movement and encourage relaxation.

About Us
This is your time to relax and escape
If you have ever treated yourself to a massage at a spa during a special getaway, you probably enjoyed the benefits of swedish massage.This is the most popular type of massage offered by therapists. Swedish massage involves deep pressure and a variety of intensive massage techniques such as kneading tapping and stroking.
Many people use Swedish massage as a way to promote relaxation, which is why many people experience their first massage on holiday. You probably remember how rejuvenated you felt afterwards. Swedish massage is a wonderful way to pamper yourself, but it is also an important and effective type of therapy for many people.
Men and women of all ages and physical conditions seek out the benefits of swedish massage. People rely on Swedish massage to support good health and to manage a variety of health conditions. Swedish massage is used for pain management, to improve circulation and to help individuals recover from injury. It is even used as a form of therapy for anxiety and depression.
Swedish massage benefits the body because of the specific techniques it involves. The movements and firm pressure involved in Swedish massage affect all the systems in the body, including soft tissue such as muscles and ligaments and also nerves and even glands. Therapists aren't just giving you a great muscle rub when you go for a swedish massage. They apply pressure to your muscles in movements that are in tune with the natural flow of blood back to your heart.
Your body's lymph system is responsible for moving fluids that contain nutrients and wastes thoughout your body. Lymph fluid is circulated during voluntary muscle movement. Swedish massage promotes healthy functioning of your lymph system by directly stimulating and relaxing your muscles. If your suffering muscular strain, Swedish massage can help your body's lymph system flush metabolic wastes such as lactic acid and uric acid from the muscles. This shortens recovery time and helps you feel better faster.
Its impossible to feel stressed during and after a Swedish massage. The pressure applied during the massage relaxes tight muscles and relieves tension. The stimulation to the skin is deeply relaxing, and it is common to feel a deeper sense of connectedness with your body during a Swedish massage.
Swedish massage promotes healthy sleep, which is one more way it helps the body heal itself. Whether insomnia or poor sleep is related to depression, anxiety, the onset of aging, or illness, Swedish massage can promote better sleep. This in turn can support the healthy function of the immune system, relieve anxiety and depression, and support energy levels.
One added benefit of Swedish massage is that it simply makes you feel great physically, and the feeling lasts if you recieve regular treatments. You will feel positive about your body and comfortable in your skin.
Massage is non-invasive, relaxing and natural. It is therefore generally considered a safe treatment for most people. However, there are three types of contraindications: Total, when massage should not be performed at all, Local, when massage can be performed but not over the contraindicated areas and Medical, when massage can only be performed once medical permission has been granted.
There is no reason to be nervous about getting your first massage. I'll answer all your questions about the massage and discuss the massage routine. A consultation approx 15 minuites prior to your treatment will be required, requiring consent to treatment and to answer any questions about the massage and preferences to personal routine and specific areas you wish treated.
