Clinical massage, tailored to how you move.
Individualised treatment designed to support how your body moves, functions and recovers, using the techniques that suit your symptoms, goals and stage of recovery.
Assessment first. Then the right hands-on work.
Clinical massage therapy combines assessment, hands-on treatment and specialised techniques to address pain, movement restrictions, muscular tension and physical dysfunction.
Your first session begins with a conversation about your symptoms, movement, lifestyle and goals. Rather than a standard routine, I consider what is contributing to your discomfort and select the approaches that best support your body. Treatment may draw on any of the techniques below, often in combination.
Deep Tissue Massage
For persistent muscle tension, restricted movement and discomfort from repetitive work, sport, injury or long hours of postural strain. Slower, targeted techniques with pressure always adjusted to your comfort.
Neuromuscular Therapy
An assessment-based approach using muscle testing, palpation and trigger point therapy to find and treat the source of recurring pain, rather than only where it is felt.
Myofascial Release
Sustained pressure, gentle stretching and specialised manual techniques to free restrictions in the fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds and supports every muscle.
Relaxation Massage
Long, smooth, rhythmic techniques at a comfortable pressure to ease everyday tension, relieve stress and help the body and mind slow down.
Dry Needling & Functional Cupping
Specialised techniques added to your massage where they will genuinely help: fine needles for specific areas of muscular tension, and dynamic cupping to decompress tissue and support movement.
