Massages
Back, Neck and Shoulders
What is Back, Neck and Shoulders Massage?
This treatment offers relief from tension stored in the body. It will soothe away any stiffness you’re feeling in these areas, as well as aches and pains. Beyond that, this type of massage creates a deep sense of relaxation, as well as renewed energy and vitality.
How does it work?
Muscle knots are highly irritated muscle fibres that have tightened into a ball in one area of your muscle. These painful, tender spots can feel sore also known as a myofascial trigger point. You can get muscle knots anywhere however they most commonly occur in the shoulders, neck and upper back. A back, neck and shoulder massage helps remove these as the pressure applied to the muscle and the body promotes relaxation, which can aid in relieving tension in the muscles.
Massage is believed to improve blood and lymph circulation as well as reducing tightness, improving flexibility and many more benefits. This is due partly to the physical manipulation of soft tissue and partly to the chemicals released as part of the relaxation response.
Benefits:
- Relief from muscle tension (knots) and stiffness.
- Enhanced mobility.
- Reduction of headaches and migraines.
- Decreases stress and anxiety levels.
- Can enhance sleep quality.
Note Buffer Time
To help every appointment run smoothly, we include a small buffer around each treatment so the time length booked may be longer than the treatment time. This is to allow extra time for the completion of your consultation form, allow for any slight delays or natural treatment runover as well as preparing the room.
Our goal is simply to make your visit relaxed, unrushed and for you to enjoy the experience from start to finish. If you ever have any questions about timing or what to expect, we’re always happy to help.
Please Note: Those days marked with a line through them are for appointment only sessions, which can be booked if required, but will need to be booked by giving us a call.
