People who simply want a dedicated soft-tissue session
If you have a new injury, significant unexplained pain or symptoms that need diagnosis, physiotherapy is usually the more appropriate starting point.
What happens during your massage appointment?
We discuss the areas you would like addressed, your activity and any relevant symptoms.
The session is tailored to the areas that are most relevant to you.
Appropriate soft-tissue techniques are used according to your needs, comfort and goals.
Where appropriate, you may receive simple advice about recovery, movement or when another PhysAnalytica service may be more suitable.
