A well-delivered massage does more than just feel good. It creates real physiological changes in the body. It improves circulation, reduces muscle tension, helps the body eliminate metabolic waste products more efficiently, and can shift the nervous system into a calmer, more restorative state.

​

As a result, it's important to follow aftercare advice to support your recovery and maximise the benefits of the treatment:​

​

• Drink plenty of water

• Avoid alcohol

• Limit caffeinated drinks

• Eat lightly

• Avoid or reduce smoking

• Make time to relax

​

Temporary after-effects of massage you may experience:

​

• Frequent visits to the loo

• Runny nose or cough

• Dehydration/ headache

• Red/ sensitive skin​

 

These are all signs of an effective massage, but if you have any concerns at all, get it touch!
