Massage

The sense of touch and of being touched by another caring person is of fundamental importance to our physical and emotional growth. Massage provides a feel-good factor, relief and support to people of all ages, from infants to seniors, and from all walks of life. The occasional jogger to the competitive athlete, the DIY or gardening enthusiast as well as the overstressed and overworked can all benefit from massage. It offers a drug-free, non-invasive and humanistic therapeutic approach that taps into the body’s natural ability to heal itself. It increases circulation, allowing the body to pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs. It stimulates the lymph system, the body’s natural defence, against toxic invaders. It releases endorphins, the body’s natural painkiller. It improves range of motion and therefore decreasing discomfort for patients with low back and other joint and muscular restrictive patterns of movement.
