Sports massage
Improve your range of movement and get the tension or pain out of the affected area. Sports massage will focus on a specific area, helps the body pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissue, improves range of movement, promotes muscle growth and prevents from sports injuries. After consultation your therapist will warm up the muscle group and gradually increase the pressure combined with muscle insertion and origin focused treatment. After the massage your therapist will recommend self-care, like stretches the individual will need to follow after the treatment.

Preganancy massage
​
A pregnancy massage is the perfect way to help you to feel a little more comfortable, by soothing any aches and pains that you may have.
A pregnancy massage is a little different to a regular massage, mainly in terms of positioning and using gentler strokes.
You can have a pregnancy massage at any point during the second or third trimester till 38 weeks. We would recommend avoiding the first trimester as a precautionary measure. Regularly asked question“is massage safe in early pregnancy?” Although the risk of miscarriage from massage in the first trimester is extremely low, why take that risk.
As you reach the second trimester, a full body massage is safe in pregnancy and an enjoyable experience to have.
