Me time!

If you lead a stressful lifestyle where you are constantly on the move, required to make decisions and donate your time to others- a massage session allows you to unwind and let someone else do the work for you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Detoxes!

All of us accumulate toxins in our body as a result of our lifestyles. From air pollution

to alcohol orcigarette consumption, too many coffees or too little sleep- it all takes a toll on our internal systems. Regular massage ‘flushes’ the body of toxins, and in conjunction with plenty of water and moderate exercise it really will improve your overall wellbeing.

 

Massage makes muscles supple & efficient!

Muscles can become tight and restricted for a number of reasons. Whether it is due to a sedentary job or having to drive long distances by car, general inactivity, problems with the way your bones are aligned or previous fractures. Believe it or not stress actually manifests itself in a physical form and causes tight muscles as well!

Regular massage ensures that your muscles are well serviced and that your joints maintain a good range of motion.

 

Massage is an excellent compliment to exercise!

Muscles make a faster recovery when massaged post-exercise  This is because massage clears out the waste products that accumulate during a hard training session. Deep tissue work also helps to keep the muscles at maximum efficiency by straightening out any minor tears to muscle fibres before they begin to form knots.

 

Massage affects many systems of the body!

• Bowel function is improved by massaging the abdominal region.
• The circulatory system benefits as the force created by the massage pumps blood around the body.
• The appearance of cellulite can be reduced by massaging hardened fatty tissue.
• The overall appearance of skin is healthier after a massage as it both ex-foliates the skin and increases the production of new skin cells leaving it better conditioned and more glowing.

…The list goes on!

Massage is good for the mind!

Massage can also be beneficial for a person’s state of mind. Research has suggested that massage

encourages the release of endorphins into the blood stream. These produce a natural ‘feel good factor’, reducing anxiety levels and leaving you feeling generally less stressed than prior to the massage.

Regular deep tissue massage to the shoulder and neck area also helps to reduce the occurrence of ‘tension headaches’.
