Remedial Massage therapy
If you have an on-going muscular ‘niggle’ or can feel constant tension in a particular area, remedial massage therapy can help break down scar tissue and therefore allow the body’s own healing mechanism to be more effective.
Massage Benefits:
:: Physical
· Increased blood circulation, improving the supply of oxygen to all tissues
· Stimulated Lymphatic flow, aiding removal of toxins and waste products
· Skin is nourished
· Nerves are soothed and rested
· Scar tissue is softened and adhesions may be freed
· Pain can, sometimes, be relieved
:: Emotional
· Relaxation
· Feeling of being cared for
· ‘Time out’ for yourself
· Safe, physical contact
· Improved self image
· Increase self esteem
The effects of massage tend to be cumulative. After one massage the effects will last for a short time, but with more regular treatments the effects appear to last longer
