Massage
Massage is one of the oldest healing traditions. Ancient populations, such as Greeks, Egyptians and Chinese, were convinced of the therapeutic properties of massage and used it to treat a variety of ailments.
Within both our Chorley and Clayton Clinic, our trained therapists are educated in skilfully and precisely working with a person’s muscles and other soft-tissue in order to improve their well-being or health. Finding a great massage therapist near you, can allow your body to work at its maximum level and give you a great performance.
The term ‘massage therapy’ is used to describe a wide variety of techniques that vary in the manner in which touch, pressure and the intensity of the treatment is applied. We treat patients from all over Lancashire, with manual therapy that includes holding, moving, and applying pressure to the muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia.
WHICH TYPE OF MASSAGE IS BEST FOR ME?
SPORTS MASSAGE
This is an application of various massage styles, not a particular massage technique. The type of technique or treatment applied is dependent on the nature of the stage of training or competition, sports injury or condition and the assessment of the remedial massage therapist.
Sport massage is a blend of techniques that aim to enhance performance and help overworked muscles to recover quickly.
RELAXATION MASSAGE
Our relaxation massage is a lighter touch massage designed to reduce tension within the body as well as giving the brain time to relax and reduce mental stress.
CHAIR MASSAGE
Chair massage is an option for those patients who struggle to lay on their front or back. It involves an objective assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of the signs, symptoms and causes of biomechanical dysfunction or injury, using specific mobilisation techniques, in order to restore normal health and function.
