This is the most widely known form of massage. Massage oils are applied to the body through a range of continuous sweeping and gliding strokes. The client is undressed to a level they feel comfortable with. Modesty is respected by using towels, so that only the part of the body being worked on is exposed.The massage is performed on a professional couch that allows you to use a face-hole or an upper face-cradle and armrest. These increase comfort as there is no need to keep turning the head from side to side.

Benefits you can enjoy from therapeutic massage:

• Improved circulation and flow of lymph (the fluid between your tissues).
  
  
• Massage produces a higher flow of oxygenated blood that enriches the tissues of the body with nutrients and removes unwanted waste products.
  
  
• Massage helps to loosen tight contracted muscles and stimulates weak, flaccid muscles.
  
  
• As well as easing tension, elasticity of the muscles improves, and posture and movement are enhanced.
  
  
• Increased body metabolism.
  
  
• Balanced nervous system.
