What is massage therapy?

Massage Therapy is the hands-on manipulation of soft tissues, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments, to relieve tension, reduce pain, and promote relaxation. It employs a variety of techniques, such as deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and Swedish massage, to improve circulation, aid recovery from injuries, and support overall physical and mental well-being. It’s widely used for stress relief, rehabilitation, and maintaining muscle health.

How long is a massage?

A massage is usually one hour. This is enough time for a deeply relaxing full body massage, or more in-depth work on a particular area, for instance back, neck and shoulders. We also offer half-hour massages for concentration on one area of the body.

How will I feel after my massage?

Most people feel very relaxed after a massage. Many experience freedom from aches and pains that have built up from months of tension or repetitive activity in their daily life. People often feel an increase in energy that can last for several days.
