How Massage Works

What is there to say ..........................

           the great mystery of our insides is contained within our skin, and who is to say how all the processes work to make us who we are!!

But there does seem to be something magical about the power of touch - do we need to know the complex science behind it to enjoy the experience? NO

We may go into a massage session thinking that we really haven't the time to be doing this, reflecting on all the jobs on our 'to do' list. But once there ............you soon enter another world .............. and come back feeling so much better.

Massage provides an opportunity to take a break from the stresses of life, and relax. With just the right amount of pressure and skilful manipulation, patterns of tension are released from overworked muscles, fascia (tissue linking different parts of the body together) is loosened in areas of strain and movement of fluids is encouraged in its circulation. These effects on the tissues give rise to the sensations of pleasure, creating new experiences in the body - whether we understand how, or not.

While the physiology may be complex, the value of the human interaction is simple. You will be treated with respect and care, listened to without judgement, and given an experience that makes you feel wonderful. Where did that hour go to .......?!!
