Back, Neck & Shoulder Massage in Surrey

Massage is the manipulation of the soft tissues of the body to ease body stresses and pains by gently applying pressure, kneading or friction techniques to most areas of the body where the muscles may have become over tight or ‘knotted’ which can be a common cause of muscular or joint discomfort.

There are many techniques which are combined to form a more general massage but in simple terms, this is along the lines of a regional massage, such as a lower back, neck and shoulder or back massage.

When you first visit Warwick or Jay, they will discuss your health and treatment needs and tailor a treatment to suit you. Appointments are available as either 30 or 60-minute sessions and often take place as either one-off sessions or as a course of treatment.

General massage sessions are excellent for stress relief and can also work effectively alongside other treatments, such as osteopathy, to help manage a long-term or chronic condition or injury to keep you active or mobile.

Massages are often utilised to alleviate the discomfort and aid in the recovery of muscular strains, sprains and overuse injuries. Techniques such as effleurage, myofascial release and deep tissue massage can help reduce muscle tension, increase blood flow to the area and promote the removal of metabolic waste products, all of which contribute to the healing process.

Massage therapy can be beneficial for alleviating the pain and stiffness associated with conditions like tendonitis or chronic lower back pain. By applying targeted pressure and stretching techniques, massage therapists help to break down adhesions and scar tissue, restoring mobility and flexibility to the affected area. Massages can also be an effective complementary treatment for injuries like whiplash and sports-related traumas, helping to reduce inflammation and promote faster recovery.
