Back Massage

Tailored to your needs - 30/45/60 minutes - £30/£38/£49

An invigorating massage, ideal muscle tension and relaxation.

The word Massage is thought to have derived from the Arabic for “press softly” or the Greek for “knead”.

There are records that show for over 5,000 years China used a form of massage with therapeutic effects.

Swedish Massage uses three main hand actions:

  • Effleurage – stroking

  • Petrissage – kneading, wringing

  • Tapotement – hacking, beating, pounding

These manipulations stimulate the cardiovascular system bringing fresh blood and nutrients to tired muscles.

The lymphatic system is also invigorated, flushing away toxins.

The nervous system is energised, releasing endorphins thus generating an immediate sense of wellbeing.

A full body massage includes work on the neck, shoulders, arms, abdomen, legs and back.

The treatment is easily adapted to give additional attention to specific problem areas or to avoid overly sensitive areas.

Benefits may include:

  • Improved muscle tone

  • Improves circulation

  • Relieves tension

  • Calms the nervous system

Thai Hand Massage is part of the traditional thai massage that originated in Thailand about 2000 years ago.


It has elements of Shiatsu, Reflexology, Chinese massage and Yoga incorporated into the massage itself. It is still taught by Buddhist monks in the temples of Thailand. Its roots can be traced back to ancient India. In Thai Hand Massage concentration is given to the 12 major energy lines (called meridian lines) in the body. These lines end into 'pressure points', which reflect a map of the bodies organs, they can also be found on the feet.
