Each session will be a combination of the following techniques.

Swedish Massage:

Gentle and relaxing massage using kneading, long, flowing strokes, deep circular motions, vibration and passive joint movement techniques. Targets superficial layers of muscle and focuses on the most tense parts of the body.

Deep Tissue Massage:

Primarily used to treat chronic pain and sports related injuries. Same techniques as Swedish Massage but the elbows and forearms may be used to apply increased pressure. Targets the inner layers of your muscles. Used to treat muscle and tendon injuries, pain and stiffness in major muscle groups.

Myofascial Release:

Focuses on reducing pain by easing the tension and tightness in the trigger points. Localizing pain to a specific trigger point is very difficult and for that reason myofascial release is often used over a broad area of muscle and tissue rather than single points.

Trigger Points:

Highly irritable localised spot of tenderness in a muscle. Compression techniques and Deep stroking massage as well as stretch and release techniques are used to release the muscle.

Stretching:

Has benefits which include improved range of movement, increased power, diminished post-treatment soreness and reduced fatigue.

Strengthening:

Improved tolerance and stamina to exercise. Keeping muscles strong can relieve pain, improve function and prevent further injury.
