Massage for Carers

What is Massage?

Massage is a therapeutic technique renowned for its soothing effects on both the body and mind. 

It involves gentle, flowing strokes targeting superficial muscles. The therapist applies rhythmic pressure with techniques like kneading and tapping to relieve tension and induce relaxation.

Unlike deep tissue massage, relaxation massage prioritises a calming experience over addressing specific muscular issues.
