Not familiar with the different types of Massage? Either go to my 'General Info' page or contact me via Facebook Messenger for a free consultation today! We'll find out together what will work best for you!
My mission is to help you achieve your goal whether that be for pain relief, relaxation and stress relief, muscle reconditioning, help with your posture, injury recovery and prevention or relief from certain medical pathologies such as MS or arthritis etc. I want you to leave your session feeling better than when you came in, but my main priority is your overall health and wellbeing. When I need to, I will refer to other qualified professionals to ensure I achieve the best possible results for you! Massage doesn't replace the need for medical care if that's what is needed.
With over 25 years of experience in a number of modalities, my goal is to work with you to meet your body's needs. I studied initially as a Beauty Therapist, and went on to advance my skills with further training in Advanced Massage Therapy Techniques. I have had experience working in Beauty Salons, with the Scottish Football Association and in an Osteopathic/Physiotherapy clinic. Massage compliments most other therapies very well indeed and I try to combine all my training and experience to offer you a very comprehensive package indeed!
IT IS IMPORTANT TO MESSAGE ME BEFORE BOOKING YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT either via my work Facebook page or WhatsApp, for a FREE chat. This will give me the chance to tell you what happens next and allow me to explain how the booking system works. We can chat about the severity of any physical problems that you may have and hopefully answer any other questions too.
There are certain restrictions in place with regards to treating the general public, that I HAVE to adhere to especially in regards to ensuring healthy working practices. The Advanced Remedial work I do comes under the heading of 'health care' and so I have to follow some of the same protocols as any health clinic or practice meaning it's important I know of any health issues first. If you are ill please only book once you have fully recovered, I treat some quite vulnerable immune compromised people who I need to keep my workroom as hygienic as I can for. This means that I might wear a mask on occasion and if there's a chance that you might be coming down with something either reschedule or you will also need to wear a mask in the treatment room itself where we will be in a smaller space and within close contact with each other. If you find it difficult or uncomfortable to breathe with a mask on during your treatment I do have other options, please just ask!
Thank you for your co-operation and please don't forget to read the full details of my regulations, company and general policies by going to my "BUSINESS DETAILS" page or by clicking on the link below as you will be expected to sign to these rules on the day. You will also find a handy map on this page too!
When setting up North Coast Massage I decided to combine the kind of treatment that you would expect to find in a health clinic and blend it with some of the little luxuries that you would expect to find in a top spa.
I've always believed in offering true value for money so my rates are competitively priced to the local area and my little luxuries don't come at any extra cost to you, it's all included in the price of the treatment, should you want it.
How many times have you booked a Deep Tissue Massage and not got anywhere near what you expected? Being trained in Sports and Remedial Massage I learnt how to apply the proper amount of pressure, safely and correctly and you won't be disappointed!
Deep Tissue sound like too much for you? That's ok, there's something for everyone here! Sometimes deep tissue isn't wanted or appropriate and I will adjust my pressure according to what you would rather have or to what I feel is best for you, if that is less, having your best interest at heart at all times. For people with certain medical conditions sometimes less is more!
My more advanced clinical skills include Advanced Remedial Therapy, Joint Hyper Mobility Advice, Triggerpoint Therapy, Myofacial Release, Positional Release Technique, Muscle Energy Techniques, Mobilisation techniques and Postural and Physical Assessments. I have had this Advanced training to be able to help you with a multitude of physical conditions such as sports related issues, postural issues, certain medical pathologies, aches and pains and so much more!
For sports athletes I can offer a muscle conditioning treatment for a decreased risk of injury and to help improve your performance levels. Some of my clients have been able to achieve new PB times! Sports Massage can also help speed up your recovery post activity and address any injuries you may have too!
Luxuries available include; relaxing music, a warm and cosy atmosphere, an electric adjustable treatment couch, a heated under blanket, a cushioned fleece under blanket, towel and oil warmer, extra cushions of all shapes and sizes, a large lightweight quilt, soft fleece blankets, a weighted blanket, a super hygienic bed, pillows, and room which is also well ventilated to help ensure that the air you breathe is clean and fresh, bedding in both masculine and feminine colours, a high quality range of essential and base oils, luxury pre-blended oils, scented hand made Highland massage wax and aqueous moisturising massage cream. You get an aromatherapy home care gift with essential oils blended specifically for you in either a pretty glass roller bottle, plain bottle, or a small pot with moisturiser FREE with every aromatherapy treatment you have. There's also a good range of retail products, therapy aids for rehabilitation and I have some beautiful gift vouchers! I take contactless card payments too!
