Sports Massage
Sports massage is specifically designed for people who are involved in physical activity. But you don't have to be a professional athlete to suffer soft tissue damage. People who are active and work out often will benefit from massage concentrated on specific muscle groups. Sports massage and good stretching will increase range of motion and speed of recovery.

Hot Stone Massage
This incorporates hot stones with massage techniques to induce heat into muscle fibres. Like a hot water bottle magnified a hundred times! The heated stones are used on key acupressure sites and the heat penetrates and relaxes the muscles, allowing for a much deeper massage. Heated stones can also be placed on the body’s chakras, or energy points, working with the body’s natural energy to create balance both physically and mentally.

Shiatsu Massage
Shiatsu is a form of traditional chines medicine that uses localized finger pressure in a rhythmic sequence on acupuncture meridians.
Shiatsu calms an overactive sympathetic nervous system, which improves circulation, relieves stiff muscles, and alleviates stress. Shiatsu is a therapy that works on the individual as a complete being – not just the physical body, but also on an emotional or mental level. |
