Simple and Standard Relaxing Full Body Massage

There are a number of clients who just want a simple and straight forward full body massage treatment that is relaxing and therapeutic.

Not all customers opt for the sports massage or my unique 3 step massage treatment. Some just like it simple and with soft to medium pressure instead of deep pressure which is often used in deep tissue massage treatments.

If you're looking for a simple and soothing massage treatment that is therapeutic and relaxing, then all you have to do is make a booking and mention you need the "simple relaxing massage."

The treatment is done using my hands, and is performed on a massage table. Both sides of the client's body (front and back) are massaged.

Rates:  60 minutes – £60.   90 minutes – £80

A 45 -minute session is also available for those who are sometimes pushed for time, especially city-workers during their lunch break. Rate for this is £40

For bookings, please contact  078 7386 1344  

Benefits of Back Massage

Massage was once considered a luxury—something you’d enjoy at a spa or health club. However, the benefit of a massage is now considered a more mainstream therapy and is often recommended by doctors and other medical professionals. 

One of the most common and beneficial parts of the body for massage is the back, since the nerves run through the spine.

A good back massage can help relieve lower back pain. After a strenuous workout or sitting at a desk all day, your back muscles are likely to be tense from overuse or repetitive use. When a massage therapist works those muscles, some of the tension is released.

Repetitive motion or immobility may cause neck and shoulder pain. An upper back massage may help relieve the tension in that area and reduce the pain from migraines.

A back massage stimulates the production of endorphins, dopamine and serotonin, chemicals that make the body feel good. A back massage can help decrease pain in the lower back, which may help prevent anxiety and depression.

The back massage relaxes the larger muscles and relieves tension that may be causing you to have a difficult time falling asleep or staying in a deep sleep. This allows you to have full sleep cycles necessary for optimum performance and good health.

Even after a long history of back pain, a massage can help heal the tissues and muscles that have become tight, weak or atrophied. This will in turn improve your range of motion. Regular massage can also help reduce stretch marks and scar tissue. Athletes who have strained muscles in the lower, middle and upper back may notice increased joint flexibility after a back massage.

A back massage stimulates circulation and increases blood flow to the area. This will help bring blood with oxygen and nutrients to the muscles and major organs.

One of the best benefits of a back massage is that it feels good. Sometimes you just need to take a little time to relax and enjoy the pleasurable sensation of the human touch.

How Massage Can Help Target Back Pain and Back Problems.

Massage is non-invasive and considered very low risk for most people. In addition to physical benefits, certain types of massage have been shown to help psychologically via relaxation and increased production of 'feel good' chemicals that the body naturally produces (endorphins)--helpful for people with back pain. 

Massage therapy is becoming more widely accepted in the medical community as a credible treatment for many types of back pain and/or as an adjunct to other medical treatments. Research shows that massage therapy has several potential health benefits for back pain sufferers, including:

• Increased blood flow and circulation, which brings needed nutrition to muscles and tissues. This aids in recovery of muscle soreness from physical activity or soft tissue injury (such as muscle strain).
• Decreased tension in the muscles. This muscle relaxation can improve flexibility, reduce pain caused by tight muscles and even improve sleep.
• Increased endorphin levels--the "feel good" chemicals in the brain. This mood enhancer can ease depression and anxiety, which can help reduce pain and speed recovery--particularly important for those suffering from chronic back or neck problems. (source: spine-health.com)
