Sports Massage
Sports Massage involves the use of deep massage, soft tissue
manipulation techniques and exercise advice to address aches
and pains whether caused by sport, injury or simply the stresses
and strains of daily life. To benefit from a sports massage you do
not need to be a sports performer. Whatever the cause we have
something to offer. Sports Massage is the management, manipulation
and rehabilitation of soft tissues of the body including muscles,

Aromatherapy Massage
Aromatherapy massage combined with a sensible lifestyle, is an
excellent way of maintaining health and preventing imbalances which
give rise to illness. It also helps the body to return from an
imbalanced state to the ideal balance representing health and
well-being. During an Aromatherapy massage the effects of massage
are intensified by the use of essential oils. These are often
referred to as ''plant hormones''. Just as our glands produce
hormones which affect bodily systems, so plant hormones are capable
of giving different effects. Aromatherapy massage, working on
meridians and pressure points, is combined with therapeutic
massage, lymph drainage and gentle rotation and stretching of
joints. Circulation is improved, muscles are relaxed, joints
become more flexible, the immune system is strengthened, toxins are
eliminated and energy flow is balanced. On an emotional
level, stress and tension are replaced by feelings of relaxation
and contentment. A regular Aromatherapy massage will bring a
noticeable improvement in well-being and general health.
Therapeutic & Swedish Massage
Therapeutic and Swedish Massage have been associated with
beneficial effects upon health. They improve
circulation, relax muscles, improve muscle tone, aid digestion and,
by stimulating the lymphatic system, speed up the elimination of
toxins. This enables the body with all it's systems, to
function more efficiently. These direct benefits, combined with the
psychological benefits of relaxation, freedom from stress and a
feeling of being cosseted and cared for, quickly produce a sense of
well-being. Today, the therapeutic value of massage is being
recognised. Massage has the potential to complement
other medical treatments and help maintain a positive state of
health.
