Why have Rest Day Massages?

You may be looking to have a massage for a number of reasons, including physical and mental maintenance as well as recovery from injury.

 

Injury recovery

A tough training schedule combined with daily stresses may have manifested itself as neck & shoulder pain, aches in the lower back, stiff hips or tightness in the glutes, hamstrings, quads or calves. 

 

If you are suffering from any of these conditions, let me know & we can work out a treatment plan..

Athletic maintenance

I see many Muay Thai fighters and marathon runners on a regular basis as an intrigue part of their training program. When you incorporate a Rest Day Massage into your regular routine, you will notice that you feel healthier in your body - lighter, looser, with greater range of motion.

Emotional equilibrium 

There are numerous positive effects of having regular massages on our mental health. Skin to skin contact soothes the nervous system & reduces anxiety. Taking time out to nurture your body & mind is an amazing way of investing in yourself. While I can’t alter the demands of your job or other life pressures, I can help you to move towards a more confident state of being whereby these external factors have less of a stressful impact on the mind & body.

Once the routine of coming for Rest Day Massages is established, you will begin to feel intuitively more in touch with your body. You will become less prone to injury and more mindful & confident in managing stress, in turn leading to decreased episodes of anxiety.
