Liz says: “Remember, you don’t have to be an athlete or sports person to benefit from Sports massage!”
Pregnancy massage
Pregnancy massage helps with pain, stmulates circulation and helps to reduce any swelling you may be experiencing. It reduces anxiety, and regular treatments will benefit both Mum and baby. A moment to also take care of yourself at such a wonderful time of your life. This massage is not recommended for women that have gestational diabetes and preclampsia.
Wavestone
Wavestone is an ergonomically designed stone made from Jade which can be heated.
Far infrared is a very safe form of thermal energy which heats objects rather than the surrounding air and can penetrate several inches into the body, easily reaching joints, tendons, muscle tissues and ligaments.
Studies demonstrate that far infrared helps enhance circulation in the skin, relieves inflammation, protects against oxidative stress and modulates sleep.
Far infrared’s thermal effect in deep layers of body tissue cause blood vessels and capillaries to dilate, thus improving blood circulation, increasing the amount of oxygen in the blood and promoting both rapid healing and a feeling of wellbeing in mind and body.
Taping
It is claimed that taping improves blood flow in the microcirculation and that this reduces swelling and facilitates healing of musculoskeletal injuries. A great addition to massage and the overall approach to a pain solution.
5*star testimonials
I am so pleased to have discovered Luck’s Yard! What a wonderfully welcoming place. Liz has been so kind to me, made me feel at ease whilst listening to my woes – but most importantly her massages are the best I have ever experienced, helping in particular to release the tension from my neck and shoulders. Can’t recommend highly enough. Emma Randall
Liz was so lovely and calm and welcoming. Her massage found all my knots and stress points, and somehow she magicked them away. I didn’t want my treatment to stop. Just such a lovely treat – so much so, that although it was a birthday gift, I shall be treating myself to these on a regular basis, as I just felt so relaxed afterwards. Thank you! S Sturges
