​HANDS ON MASSAGE THERAPY
TREATMENTS
It's all about you! Prior to all treatments, clients are asked to complete an informal registration card and answer a few brief questions about their medical history, nothing too intrusive. It allows me to tailor a massage to best suit your needs and requirements, taking into consideration, how you use your body day to day, and how I can best deliver a great, unhurried massage experience for you.
