Frequently Asked Questions
How Often Should I Get A Massage?
Everyone needs a good firm massage at least once a month if you want to maintain a healthy muscular system free from pain and injury.

Our Approach
The first sign of needing a Remedial / Sports Massage is muscle tightness or discomfort. If ignored then this tightness leads to pain. If you then push through this pain you can end up with a serious chronic injury such as disc problems, joint inflammation, chronic headaches, inability to turn your head, nerve pain and tingling down your arms, knee or hip replacements, the list goes on and it’s not a good list either!
As the saying goes “Listen to your body’s whispers before it has to scream”
