Description

Holistic sports and remedial massage adds a new dimension to your treatment. In this holistic approach, even the deepest bodywork techniques are applied within a nurturing, person-centred framework. Your physical and emotional well-being are taken into consideration at all times, when deciding which sports and remedial techniques to use.

Holistic sports and remedial massage can provide relief with minimal discomfort, compared with the experience of pain that may be associated with traditional sports massage. This is because the therapist listens to your body, working more deeply only when you are ready, simply allowing release to occur without forcing it. When working in this way, muscles do not react against the pressure and therefore the client does not feel the need to resist the massage. Note that a mild to moderate level of discomfort may be experienced with the most direct techniques and this will be closely monitored. This approach has all of the benefits stated for holistic therapeutic massage, with some additional advantages.

You do not need to be sporty in order to benefit from this type of massage, as anyone can injure themselves or experience aches and pains. When applied in a holistic, person-centred way, anyone can benefit.
