As a Remedial Massage Therapist
I use skilled manipulation combined with in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology to bring about pain relief, correcting and normalizing the body’s muscles and soft tissues.
What to expect
Before treatment begins I will complete a ‘client assessment’: this includes asking you about your current physical condition (there are some conditions for which massage is not appropriate), stress levels, and whether or not any part of your body is particularly sensitive.
How often should I come for treatments?
This is one of the most common questions I get asked, and honestly every person and situation is different but the general rule of thumb is as follows:
At the beginning, two to three session’s one week apart is best to give maximum benefit, as every massage session builds on the gains from previous sessions. After that about once a month seems to be the most beneficial for massage to keep its positive effects.
