Hidden aches & pains

Again & again, clients present with no aches & pains & what emerges during the treatment is entirely unexpected, often the absolute opposite! In fact, this is the same when I have my treatments, & when I treat other therapists, so it doesn’t just apply to clients alone!

I love the extra layer of information that comes from a massage, deep enough to achieve something ‘useful’ en route to relaxation, information that we were oblivious of, & can only act on once we are aware of it. We wander through life thinking our bodies are ‘just fine’, but much of the time we don’t really know as much can be going on under the surface. Massage is so often underestimated as it can work on as many aspects of us as we bring to the sessions. Actually, it impacts all areas, regardless, but some people can be uncomfortable with that, so we can focus on the physical, muscular aspects, if that’s what’s required.

Many clients have had years of back problems now alleviated by regular treatments, because alongside the massage itself, we will explore stretches or strengthening elements to do in between sessions. Sometimes it’s about stopping a particular sport, for a time, or tweaking your style, & gradually fine tuning changes that support physical wellbeing to the level you want for the life you are living. My previous life running exercise classes comes into play here, working with very different bodies & lifestyles. This is about seeing what changes work best for you.

But, first, we need to peep below the surface & what better way than with a massage session at your home! Call me, email me…
