Graeme is extremely thorough and also very very strong! I asked for a strong firm massage to deal with a medical issue and ongoing spinal issues. He was very knowledgeable, careful and took great care. It was a very deep tissue massage and a complete reset! I will definitely go back. Thank you Graeme. More...

Suffering from extreme anxiety, I was very nervous about having my first ever massage.
I choose body zen because Graeme is also a registered Mental health nurse.
His kind, caring, considerate and emphathetic nature really put me at ease from the moment I set foot in to the treatment room.
To say the massage was sensational is only putting it midly. It has really helped me relax and took me to a state of utter bliss and I am very grateful for his services.
Many Thanks
Graeme

Absolutely brilliant service from start to finish.
I have a long standing sporting injury from tennis that has caused immense pain for at least 6 months now.
I came to body zen with the intension of getting some pain reduction and relief and i was not dissapointed. I now have had 3 sesions with Graemre annd he has really helped me take a proactive approach in managing my injury.
I feel I can move much more freely and as long as I do the stretches proscribed, I have minimal pain.
I can throughly reccomend this service for soft tissue injury and rehabilitation.

I have chronic compartment syndrome in my calf muscles which had become debilitating. I needed to stretch after 5 min of walking and sometimes would be in agony.
Recomended exercises - squats etc have helped but never really altered the muscle tightness or form.
Graeme has been treating my calf muscles for coming up to one year. He regularly uses targeted
sustained pressure on small areas he identifies as blockages or spasms. He explains this breaks up tissue adhesions and allows oxygenated blood to flow back in to the area, so that the muscle compartment receives nutrients and blood flows more fluidly. It was the lack of oxygenated blood causing the pain.
I have seen a massive reduction in the tightness of my calves and the shape has changed, they are not so shortened. I no longer experience severe intense pain and can exercise and walk freely without worrying about permanently damaging my calves.
I would highly recommend him as a sports massage therapist. He is also warm, personable and lovely.

Deep Tissue Massage
A deep tissue massage is a particular massage technique that uses slow strokes and sustained pressure to target the inner layers of muscles, deep below the surface. It’s used primarily to treat musculoskeletal problems and to aid recovery from vigorous physical activity or sports injuries, but it also has wider applications that can improve the body, mind and soul of anyone receiving the treatment.

Myofascial Release
Myofascial release therapy is a type of gentle, constant massage that releases tightness and pain throughout your myofascial tissues.
Myofascial release focuses on reducing pain by easing the tension and tightness in the trigger points. It’s not always easy to understand what trigger point is responsible for the pain. Localizing pain to a specific trigger point is very difficult. For that reason, myofascial release is often used over a broad area of muscle and tissue rather than at single points

Hot stone/Deep Tissue Massage
This type of massage involves the use and placement of basalt River rock on different points of the body. The rocks are heated before use and the massage therapist can then apply deeper pressure to areas of concern without causing any discomfort.
This massage combined with deep tissue techniques, really works those tight muscles and is a total invigorating holistic experience.
