QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

What's involved in having a table massage?

Option 1:

Disrobe to your underwear, costume or naked, draped with quality towels during your treatment. Then, our own unique blend of aromatherapy essential oils are used to enhance states of relaxation or revitalisation as necessary on your body, plus nourish and moisturise the skin. Complimentary ointments maybe used for specific problem areas.

Option2:

You may choose a Shiatsu massage treatment, fully clothed. Non-invasive techniques are used, applying gentle, yet firm pressure to release tension in muscles and stimulate acupressure points. This will release your body's blocked energy and bring the muscles out of their contracted state.

Should I have regular massages?

When you build massage into your health regime, the accumulative effects benefit you as a preventative medicine from disease.

The full benefits of your massage are accumulated by weekly, fortnightly or monthly regular treatments to help maintain your body's natural homeostasis and counteract stressful lifestyles.

It is important and in your best interest to return for regular treatments for a healthier lifestyle. Massage should be a vital part of life, which gives you a breathing space in which to relax and
re-orientate yourself.


How many treatment sessions do I need?

One treatment is no quick fix. You will notice a possible improvement, feeling of lightness, flexibility and revitalisation.

When you're tense you subconsciously hold your body tightly. Rather than letting the problem accumulate, up to five-treatment sessions maybe needed. If no improvements, consult your Doctor.

The Massage Therapist's role is to help you self regulate the problem and possibly educate lifestyle changes.

Which massage therapy is best for me?

How does massage therapy benefit me?

Massage can be valuable as a therapy for all kinds of health problems when used in conjunction with mainstream medical therapies.

It is especially useful for musculoskeletal pain and any problems related to stress and muscle tension, such as headaches, insomnia, anxiety and even chronic fatigue syndrome.

By relieving stress, massage may even help your high blood pressure and irritable bowel syndrome. There is evidence that it also increases your body's production of pain-killing and mood-boosting endorphins.

Does massage therapy benefit everybody?

The positive power of massage benefits everybody. It has been proven over many thousands of years. A systematic and scientific mobilisation of soft tissues of your body.
