The-Massage-Therapist

Ever wondered what my clinic looks like inside? Come and have a little look around!

From the entrance and waiting area to the treatment room, this is where I welcome clients for relaxation, deep tissue, sports, pregnancy and Swedish massage.

I'm located on the corner of Calle Tauro and Calle Sagitario, between Benalmádena Costa and Arroyo de la Miel.

The massage I provide

Everyone comes to massage for a different reason, so I offer a range of treatments depending on what your body needs.

Relaxation Massage – gentle, flowing techniques designed to help you switch off and unwind.

Swedish Massage – a classic massage using a range of techniques to work on general muscle tension while still being relaxing.

Pregnancy Massage – adapted to provide comfortable, supportive treatment during pregnancy, taking your stage of pregnancy and individual needs into account.

Deep Tissue Massage – slower, more focused work for areas of persistent muscle tension and tightness.

Sports Massage – designed around active bodies, whether you're training regularly, playing sport or simply putting your body through a lot.

Not sure which one is right for you?
We can talk about what you're looking for and I'll recommend the most appropriate approach.

Which one would your body choose today?

Behind the scenes, I’ve been working on something to help the business.

It's not just massage that I have to do as a business owner. There’s been a lot of planning, testing and figuring things out, but it’s finally starting to come together.

I’m not quite ready to tell you exactly what it is yet…

But I’ll be sharing more very soon.

September has definitely brought a change of pace.

Summer is coming to an end, the children are back at school and everyone is settling back into their usual routines. We’re even getting some slightly cooler weather!

The clinic has certainly noticed the change too. September has ramped up as everyone gets back to normal and starts making time for those appointments they may have put off during the summer.

If you’re thinking about booking, don’t leave it until you need an appointment, get your October massage booked in advance.

Why I Became a Massage Therapist

My journey into massage therapy is quite personal.

I have hypermobility, along with many of the issues that can come with it, so I know what it's like to live with pain, discomfort and a body that doesn't always cooperate with you.

Having experienced that myself, I understand how much it can affect everyday life and how good it feels when your body finally feels a little easier.

But the biggest reason I love being a massage therapist is the people. I genuinely enjoy helping someone feel better, whether that's easing muscle tension, helping them move more comfortably or simply giving them some time to switch off.

Seeing the difference a treatment can make and hearing how someone feels afterwards gives me a huge amount of job satisfaction.

And that's why, after all these years, I still love what I do.

The importance of recovery days

If you’re always training, working, walking, playing sport or simply keeping busy, your body is constantly being asked to do something.

Recovery days give your muscles and nervous system a chance to catch up. After exercise, your muscles need time to repair the small amounts of damage created during training and adapt to the workload. Without enough recovery, fatigue can build up and your body may not perform at its best.

Recovery doesn’t have to mean doing absolutely nothing. Gentle movement, good sleep, staying hydrated and giving your body a break from intense activity can all be part of it.

The benefits of booking your appointment in advance

If you know you want a massage, why wait until your body is really asking for one?

Booking in advance means you have a date and time secured that works for you, rather than trying to fit an appointment around what's left in the diary.

It can also make it easier to stay consistent with your treatments. Instead of waiting until your neck, shoulders or back are causing you problems, you can make massage part of your regular routine.

And if you're a regular client, booking your next appointment before you leave means it's one less thing to remember when life gets busy.

I only have a limited number of appointments available each day, so popular days and times can book up quickly.
