The art of massage therapy at our clinic

Deep tissue massage focuses on releasing chronic tension in deeper muscle layers, using slow, firm pressure — making it useful for long-standing tightness anywhere in the body.

Sports massage is typically more targeted towards performance, training, and recovery, and may include techniques like assisted stretching and trigger point work, tailored to the demands of your sport or activity.

Yes — pregnancy massage is a specifically adapted technique, using safe positioning and appropriate pressure for each stage of pregnancy.

It’s commonly used to ease back pain, swelling, and general tension.

Always let your therapist know how many weeks pregnant you are and mention any pregnancy complications, so treatment can be adapted appropriately.

Manual lymphatic drainage is a gentle technique using light, rhythmic strokes to help reduce fluid retention and swelling while supporting the body’s natural drainage system.

It’s often sought out during pregnancy or for general swelling in the limbs and is a much gentler technique than deep tissue or sports massage.

Mild soreness — similar to how you might feel after exercise — is common after deep tissue or sports massage, particularly if you’re new to it or the treatment focused on a very tight area.

This typically settles within a day or two.

Drinking water and gentle movement afterwards can help.

This depends on what you’re treating.

For general tension or stress relief, monthly sessions are common.

For chronic pain, active training, or recovery from injury, more frequent sessions — weekly or fortnightly — are often more effective, at least initially.

Your therapist can recommend a schedule based on your specific needs.

You don’t need to bring anything specific.

Most massage is carried out with you undressed to your comfort level and covered with towels throughout, except for the area being treated.

Your therapist will start with a short consultation about your goals, medical history, and any areas of concern before adapting pressure and technique to suit you throughout the session.
