Office Massage
I am able to come in to your work place for a day to give Tui-na (Chinese Medical Massage) to your colleagues. This is a deep tissue massage that uses towels, so there is no need to remove any clothing.
Tui-na massage is great at relieving pain, stress and increasing energy levels. For more information please read below.
I can visit your place of work monthly, fortnightly, or weekly, giving your employees a 20 to 30 minute massage. This means I can see 10 employees between 09:00 and 15:00.
A short Health and Safety check is required for the first treatment.
The length of each session and number of slots can be tailored to your company's needs, extended hours are also available.
I have 7 years of experience in massage, acupuncture and other holistic therapies.
I am registered with the Acupuncture Regulatory Authority, have a First Aid qualification and fully insured.
What is Tui-na?
Tuina practitioners use a combination of hand and arm techniques to massage and realign the recipient’s muscles, bones, ligaments, and tendons. These techniques can include: kneading, pressing, rolling, shaking, and stretching.
Similar to acupuncture, the practitioner stimulates pressure points in the recipient’s body. They aim to influence the flow of qi through the meridians, which are energy pathways in the body.
This is a deep tissue massage easing aches and pain whilst also aiding a person's general well-being.
What is Tui-na good for?
Tuina massage can be used to treat pain and illness, or to maintain good health.
The technique is effective in reducing stress, encouraging relaxation, and deepening sleep.
It’s often used for conditions and injuries related to the musculoskeletal and nervous systems.
Here are some conditions tuina massage can treat:
-
neck and back pain
-
musculoskeletal disorder
-
fatigue and insomnia
-
carpal tunnel
-
headaches
-
arthritis
-
stress
Why is it suitable for the workplace?
Tui-na is performed over towels and clothes, which means there is no mess and you are ready to go back to work straight after.
Regular office massage is one of the best ways to relieve stress in the work-place.
As well as promoting corporate wellness, Tui-na massage techniques increase healthy blood flow throughout the body, waking up all your cells and getting your brain back into action.
After a short 15 minute workplace massage, employees become more alert, attentive to detail, and show increased rates of productivity.
Make your team feel invigorated, calmed and valued.
Requirements
You would need to provide a space that is approximately 8ft by 7ft (minimum, preferably a little bigger).
Treatments would be up to 30 min per employee and a quick health check questionnaire would need to be filled in prior to treatment.
