A question I have been asked quite a few times recently is about the difference between Swedish and Deep Tissue massage, so I thought I would share a brief overview in case anyone else was wondering…. 

First things first, the answer isn’t just pain!

I think when some people think of deep tissue they essentially think it’s a massage that will feel like they are being tortured for an hour! They'll suffer in the treatment room, they’ll be suffering as they leave the treatment room and are likely to only feel better in a couple of days. 

Well, I am here to dispel that myth I hope!

So can having a massage help you sleep?

Yes.

Ok blog post over.

All the lols, (do people still say this… am I showing my age? So many questions) only kidding, I promise to give you an actual explanation on how regular massage can help you sleep.

So what is a postnatal massage? Or postpartum massage…

This is the exact question I asked when I trained for my pregnancy massage qualification because in truth, I had never experienced one. I didn’t even know you could get a massage straight after giving birth.

“I’m so sorry, I haven’t shaved my legs!” I have heard variations of this sentence from so many clients and I want to set the record straight now.
