Deep tissue, sports and remedial massage
At our clinic in Cambridge, we specialise in massage for people who are in pain. Our massage therapists are very highly qualified and treat all kinds of painful conditions such as back pain, muscle strains, muscular spasms, pelvic girdle pain during pregnancy, neck pain and sports injuries.
Remedial massage is a completely different experience to spa massage. Whether you have a longstanding condition or have recently injured yourself, our therapists will assess you thoroughly and apply a range of massage treatment techniques to relieve pain, release muscle tension and restore pain free movement.
What are the benefits of a great massage?
We tailor every massage treatment to your symptoms and individual needs, combining different techniques to create a custom approach. This may include deep tissue treatments, sports massage, lymphatic drainage, trigger point techniques, instrument assisted massage (IASTM), muscle energy techniques and myofascial release.
Massage is not just for people in pain. There are lots of other reasons why a great massage is helpful. Regular massage improves the condition of your muscles, increases blood flow, lowers your stress levels, improves sleep patterns and can help reduce the risk of sustaining an injury in the first place. Women who are massaged during pregnancy will not only feel better during their pregnancy but also have a reduced likelihood of postpartum depression.
