Description text goes hereI've had plenty massages in my time, but this was by far the best! Emily really listened to my needs and had an excellent knowledge of the anatomy. Consequently the massage was spot on in terms of reaching the right muscles and at the right intensity. Felt like I floated out of the room! Definitely recommend!

I made an initial half hour appointment with Emily and after a chat, I realised that she offers a completely different service to any that I have had previously and I was delighted when she could change the appointment to a full body massage. Emily is extremely knowledgeable about the body and how it works and gave me the best massage treatment and advice that I have ever experienced from a massage therapist. The after effects truly made me feel fabulous as she reduced pain, inflammation and discomfort. Emily, you have 'healing hands!!!'. Needless to say, I have made my next appointment.ption text goes here

Treatments Times
55 MINUTES (includes consultation)
If you are looking for a longer, deeper and more effective massage then this full body massage might be best for you. Even if you have problem in one specific area, there may be tension else where in the body that is effecting or causing this. If you haven’t had massage previously, we would recommend this.
25 MINUTES (includes consultation)
If you are short on time, want a massage that is more focused on specific areas (e.g. neck/ shoulders), or as a follow up from an initial consultation, this is ideal.
20 MINUTES (Taster Session)
If you’re keen to try it but are not sure whether massage therapy is right for you then our taster session is ideal. Our massage therapist will be able to discuss your needs, do some hands on massage and discuss how massage therapy might benefit you
