| Massage is perhaps the oldest, simplest and most instinctive of all medical treatments. It is a natural extension of how we hold ourselves and others. Particularly in the East it is accepted as part of their everyday culture but until recently in the West its value was only recognised in the sporting world. |
| Holistic or intuitive massage treats the individual as a whole, not just concentrating on isolated symptoms and conditions. |
| Physical benefits include the toning and relaxing of muscles, soothing of the nervous system, increasing venous and lymph flow, hence removing the waste products and improving circulation throughout the body. |
| Mental benefits include the release of stress and anxiety but also increasing awareness of your body as a whole. Massage can help you develop a more positive self-image, taking responsibility for your own well-being both physically and mentally. |
