About Massage
Massage is probably the oldest healing art known to man. It almost certainly started as a form of structured touching which people found to produce results for their health and well being.
Today massage in its many forms is used to relieve stress, tension and emotional trauma as well as healing physical damage to the muscles and skeletal support tissues.
Not only are minor aches and pains caused by nervous tension soothed away by massage, a sense of relaxation seeps over the body. A glowing sensation of well being is promoted after a well executed massage.
It has been scientifically proven that when a persons mind and body is at rest and relaxed, the immune system is enhanced and can work efficiently, thus reducing the risk of infection and aiding the body’s natural healing process.
Massage appears in many forms including Swedish Massage, Sports Therapy Massage and Aromatherapy Massage.
Complementary Therapy is recognised by doctors and psychiatrists as having beneficial effects.

How does the Bowen Technique work?
This is a soft tissue therapy working on muscles, ligaments and tendons. The release experienced in the muscle bed allows the muscle to relax, gain length and be able to receive adequate blood supply and essential oxygen. Sports performers are often unbalanced. Single muscles can seize creating wider problems in the groups that surround them. This will directly influence range of movement, create restriction and often pain. Acute injuries need to be addressed to make sure the body does not compensate for the damage and develop other difficulties. Chronic injuries (those of more than 6 weeks duration) have layers of other restrictions which need to be unravelled to access the root cause.
Initial treatment requires only three or four sessions with management sessions recommended every three months.
