Anne Taylor Clinical Massage Therapist

When you hear the words "massage therapy", you might immediately picture lots of hands-on work.

My approach can look rather different.

Much of my work is very gentle and subtle, drawing on craniosacral techniques where there may be very little physical contact at all.

It can sometimes surprise new clients who arrive expecting massage to involve lots of movement, manipulation or pressure!

For me, an appointment isn't about doing as much as possible.
It's about working in a way that's appropriate for the individual in front of me, explaining my approach and giving you the opportunity to ask questions along the way.

Curious about how I work? You're always welcome to get in touch for a chat before booking.

Come on boys!!

October has arrived 🍂

And with it often comes a change in routine.

We might be spending a little less time outside, sitting down a little more, digging out the heavier coats and generally moving differently than we did through summer.

It can be a good time to simply check in with yourself.
How are you feeling?
How are you moving?
Are you making enough time for yourself?

Clinical massage sessions with me are always tailored to the individual in front of me — taking into account how you’re feeling, your lifestyle and what you'd like from your appointment.

If you've been thinking about booking some time for yourself this autumn, please get in touch.

Tide’s in at Morecambe Bay.

Before September disappears… When did you last make some time for yourself?

A new month often arrives with a long list of things we intend to get done.

So before October begins, here's a gentler checklist:

☐ Have I taken proper breaks from work?
☐ Have I made time to move during the day?
☐ Have I had opportunities to relax?
☐ Have I spent time doing something I enjoy?
☐ Have I made any time that's simply for me?

Wellbeing doesn't have to be another target to hit or another thing to get “right”.

Small moments count too.

And if having a professional massage is one of the ways you enjoy making time for yourself, you're very welcome to get in touch about an October appointment.

Here's to looking after ourselves as autumn gets underway. 🍂

Can you speak up during a massage? Absolutely.

There's sometimes an assumption that once you're on the treatment table, you need to stay quiet and put up with whatever happens.
You don't.

Professional massage is collaborative.

If you'd prefer a change of position, want to ask what I'm doing or simply need to say that something isn't comfortable, please tell me.

Your feedback helps me work appropriately and within your comfort.

And remember: more intense doesn't automatically mean better.

Good communication between client and therapist is an important part of a professional appointment.
Never be afraid to use your voice.

Not sure whether you need clinical massage, sports massage or another type of appointment?
You don't need to have it all worked out before you contact me.

It’s perfectly fine to get in touch and simply explain what you're looking for from a massage appointment.

I can tell you more about the services I offer, answer your questions and discuss whether an appointment with me seems appropriate.

And where something falls outside my professional scope, I won't pretend otherwise.

Sometimes the easiest first step is simply having a conversation.

You've heard me mention Myofascial Release – but what actually is it?

Fascia is connective tissue found throughout the body.

Myofascial Release, often shortened to MFR, is one of the hands-on approaches within my professional training.

Rather than thinking of massage as one single technique, it's useful to remember that trained massage therapists may have a range of approaches available to them.

Which technique I use during an appointment will depend on the individual, what we've discussed and what is appropriate within my scope of practice.

I hold a Jing Certificate in Advanced Myofascial Release alongside my wider massage and sports therapy qualifications.

Questions about the techniques I use?
You're always welcome to ask.
