REMEDIAL MASSAGE
This is deep massage, concentrating on specific problem areas to relieve muscle tension, ease chronic pain, maintain flexibility, and so on. However, the intention is not to cause you pain. When giving deep massage, I am constantly looking for “the edge”, where you can feel that work is being done but can relax into the massage and let go. Massage is a joint effort, and if I am causing you so much pain that you are tensing up, I do not believe we will get results.

Sometimes after a deep massage you may feel achey the next day, just as if you have taken unaccustomed exercise. This is perfectly normal and should wear off within 24 hours

AROMATHERAPY MASSAGE
As a trained Aromatherapist, I often use essential oils to enhance the effect of the massage. These oils have many properties, including analgesic, muscle relaxant, calming the digestion, relaxing, invigorating, and so on. I will use a blend of up to 3 essential oils to suit your needs, individually mixed in a base of sweet almond oil.

The massage itself can be relaxing or invigorating, gentle or deep, and can range from a half hour back, neck and shoulder massage or leg and foot massage to a full body massage lasting sixty to ninety minutes.

Gerry Pyves' NO HANDS® MASSAGE

This revolutionary massage is a good example of how massage does not have to be painful to be effective. It works on a systemic level, stretching and relaxing the whole body so that tension simply dissolves. Originally designed to protect the practitioner from injury, many clients love the profound nurturing qualities of this style of massage.

I was fortunate enough to be a trainer on the NO HANDS® massage training team for many years
