Whilst soft tissue therapy and massage treatments are primarily effective at relieving pain, there are also many other health benefits that can be enjoyed by this practise. Not only can manual therapies help to improve stiffness and encourage better movement of the body, but they can promote relaxation and aid sleep.

By manipulating and massaging the body tissues, a specialist massage therapist can improve blood circulation, prevent stress on the joints, drain fluids more efficiently and assist with the management of life long, chronic conditions by decreasing anxiety and promoting relaxation.

Contrary to common belief, manual therapies and soft tissue therapy  need not be restricted to those suffering from pain as they are also effective for general body maintenance.  Taking the time to ensure that bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons are in optimum condition decreases the risk of future injury and enables the early detection of underlying problems.
