Massage therapy is not just a luxury but a necessity for your well-being.
In today's hectic world, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life. With so much to do and so little time, it's no wonder many people feel stressed and overwhelmed. That's where massage therapy comes in.
Relaxing and Swedish Massages are great ways to relieve tension and promote relaxation. I use a blend of Swedish and Hawaiian Massage Therapy to create the perfect customised Relaxing Massage that suits your needs and maximises the results of deep relaxation.
Swedish Massage, which is one of the most popular types, is known for its therapeutic and relaxing benefits. It aims to improve circulation, relieve muscle tension, and promote relaxation.
Hawaiian Massage is a bodywork massage that uses long, firm, rhythmical strokes and stretches based on unique pattern movements going down into your muscles from head to toe. It melts away all your stress and tensions, leaving you fully relaxed, rejuvenated, energised, and ready to take on the world.
If you're having some aches and pains or maybe an injury causing you discomfort, but at the same time, you feel overwhelmed and tired, and all you think is a bit of relaxing "ME" time, then maybe "Fix and Relax" custom long session Massage Therapy is the answer.
I will focus on your aches first, then on relaxation. I call that body "MOT".
This extended session of custom Massage Therapy has it all—focusing on trigger points and deep layers of your muscles, taking you through gentle PNF stretches and joint mobilisation and, finally, a state of relaxation from head to toe. You will feel relaxed and at ease with more range of movement in your joints, like a new person in a new body. It can help prevent and treat various body ailments and improve physical and mental health.
So, if you want to relax, heal and rejuvenate your body, book a massage appointment today!
Although my aim is to reduce your pain and improve your condition within three to six regular treatments, most people notice improvements even after their first treatment.
“I had dislocated my shoulder 3 months previously. The physio was working but I had lack of mobility and strength in my shoulder which was interfering with my swimming and causing pain. I was planning a 2 mile swim in the Serpentine and needed Jo to help me get to a place where I could actually do the swim without damaging my shoulder. I was concerned that massage therapy wasn`t the answer and I needed something more radical. In addition Jo was recommended by my physio I wasn`t sure she would be able to do what was needed in the time frame. We started with a full consultation, during every part of the process Jo expected to feedback following the various techniques and procedures she used. Every massage was a step up from the last. It never become routine. After series of treatments I am mostly pain free for longer periods between massages and my shoulder is almost completely mobile. I will highly recommend her.”
“Before working with Joanna my initial body condition has been very varied over the past few years. I had no reservations as I trusted a recommendation from someone I knew well who was very experienced at receiving massages over a 20 year period and they said Joanna was the best! The process of working with her has been entirely positive. Her work has been very professional and extremely beneficial whatever the complaint I have brought to her. The one best result is impossible to recall.
Whatever the complain and discomfort - small to large - the result has been the relief and reduction in symptoms and a better sense of overall well-being...
You will be in safe and very competent hands.”
“I have received massage treatments from Joanna over a numbers of years. Five years ago it became difficult for me to walk for more than 200-300 yards. The diagnosis of the physio was:
1. Left peripheral nerve irritation from L5/S1 facet joint due to stiffness of his lumbar spine.
2. Left gluteal minimus tendinopathy.
3. Mechanical hip pain due to weakness of his gluteals and control at his pelvis.
Joanna helped me with a set of regular treatments and exercises that dealt with these issues.
Joanna is a massage therapist who combines physiology insights with deep knowledge of human behaviour. And she has a helpful and caring approach.
Regular massage treatments have also helped me with keeping a sense of balance in the face of stressful work-conditions.”
