WHAT IS ON-SITE ACUPRESSURE MASSAGE?

Acupressure Massage is based on traditional Japanese massage. The practitioner uses an ergonomically designed portable chair, which fully supports the client while allowing access to the back, neck, arms hands & head. The client remains fully clothed and no oils are used.

It is a health & relaxation session, which revitalises and is intended to promote a sense of well-being.

Tense and aching muscles relax and circulation is increased,. The sequence works to improve the flow of energy throughout the body and acts on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. Acupressure Massage is not primarily a corrective treatment but more of a 'tune-up', although clients often report a lessening or disappearance of symptoms.

If used on a regular basis, it can help prevent minor conditions developing into more serious ones. It was developed for use in the workplace during the working day.
