Massage


We can offer you two different types of massage; Traditional Swedish massage and Shiatsu.

Traditional Swedish massage
Swedish massage is a very effective therapy for releasing muscle tension and restoring balance to the musculo-skeletal system. Received regularly this can help to prevent injuries, which might otherwise be caused by overuse. Massage is also very beneficial to reduce and relieve tension caused by postural dysfunction, such as neck and shoulder pain caused by sitting with poor posture.

Shiatsu
Shiatsu, literally meaning finger pressure, was developed in Japan and is based on traditional Chinese medicine. The holistic full body treatment combines the use of acupressure points and massage. Shiatsu shares the same philosophy and aims as acupuncture and is the massage part of oriental medicine. Shiatsu influences and balances the chi (energy which flows through your body). You will leave the session feeling completely relaxed and energized.

The treatment is normally performed on the floor on a matt. Because Shiatsu works through clothes, our therapist suggests you wear comfortable and loose clothing, preferably trousers and something to keep you warm as well as a pair of socks.
