Head & Shoulders Massage Manchester

Many occupations bring about tension in the neck and shoulders which in turn generates pain and even headaches. This stress and muscle tightness has often built up because of the nature of work the client engages in, which affect this particularly susceptible part of the body. This may range from heavy labouring work to office workers. The Head and Shoulders Massage treats the soft tissue which relieves pain and replaces it with relaxation. The head and shoulders therapists use oil to facilitate the easy movement of their hands across the back of the head and shoulders, working to ease and release the tightness and tension. As a Manchester head and shoulders massage increases circulation, the treatment to the affected part of the body not only helps to reduce the pain felt, but lessens inflammation, and that tension headache will disappear.

At Manchester Massage our therapists start their treatment with an inclusive massage which loosens the whole of the shoulders, upper torso, and back of head. By locating the knots and lesions in the muscles and trigger points, the massage therapist will increase the pressure with thumbs, the palm and heel of the hands, and the fingertips, up to and including the base of the skull. If the therapist feels it to be appropriate, and only in specific circumstances, the Manchester Massage clinician may include hot or cold stones thereby intensifying the depth of the effect. With so many who spend much of their time leaning over a keyboard, they are finding their bodies are affected by muscle tension. Booking a head and shoulder massage will help alleviate this pain and they will find themselves restored, relaxed, and their sleep quality will be vastly improved, resulting in them feeling invigorated and able to relax again.
