Light Touch Massage

Both Rae and John are practitioners of Light-Touch massage, a technique which focuses on releasing tension from the body through gentle repetitive strokes.  Light Touch massage technique is based on the concepts that Touch in itself is therapeutic and combines the wealth and knowledge from ancient eastern practices of Shiatusu and Tui Na as well as western technique.

Light Touch massage is a much lighter and gentler massage than most other massage techniques and is not painful like Swedish Massage can be. It helps to unblock the flow of energy by reducing tension and easing constriction throughout your system. Light-touch brings about deep relaxation and a sense of lightness and balance to mind and body.

Although deep bodywork techniques give excellent results, they can cause some discomfort and leave clients feeling very tired after a session. Light touch can provide relief from pain, and a sense of both relaxation and energy. We use a massage chair, that supports you so you can relax completely and this also means that you are fully clothed.

Whilst it is excellent for general relaxation it is especially useful for people with tension and pain in their neck and shoulders. Light touch can help reduce headaches and improve sleep patterns too.

Massage has been shown to increase the body’s production of the mood altering hormone serotonin and the stress hormone cortisol, so you are likely to feel a general sense of well being after a session and we reccomend a regular massage to help maintain balance in these stressful times.

Light Touch Massage sessions cost £30 for one hour.
