What is it?
Massage therapy is one of the oldest healing techniques. It consists of a manipulation of the soft tissues of the body by the hands of the therapist to promote healing, circulation and pain relief. The benefits of massage are varied and far-reaching and are an important part of general health, wellbeing and stress relief for many people living in today's fast-paced society.
It aims to revive and heal and helps the body and mind to relax. It's the perfect tonic at the end of a hectic day.
As an accepted part of many physical rehabilitation programmes, massage therapy has also proven beneficial for many chronic conditions, such as lower back pain, arthritis, bursitis, fatigue, high blood pressure, diabetes, immunity suppression, infertility, smoking cessation, depression, and much more.
