After an examination and assessment, Andy will identify which tissues and areas of the body are dysfunctional. He will then focus a variety of practical techniques towards resolving the problem. Reduction of muscle tension and release of soft tissue in one area will often produce favourable changes in the body’s overall alignment and balance.

Andy uses a variety of manual therapy techniques which are employed to manage musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction and may consist of trigger point therapy, myofascial release and specific stretching exercises.

Depending on the circumstances and treatment needed, Andy can recommend how long the massage should last. This is usually either a 30minute or 1hour session.

Most people find that there will be a little discomfort at some point during the massage on specific tender spots, which clients often call a ‘good’ pain. It’s important that you communicate with the massage therapist throughout the treatment and let the therapist know if you experience any soreness or pain outside your comfort zone.

Each treatment is tailored towards the client’s specific needs. Andy is also happy to treat more than one person on a visit, which is discounted.
