What would the treatment involve?
As part of your sports or remedial massage session, the Rock Therapy Mattress heats up to 45-70 degrees. The heat allows the muscle tissue layers to warm up and soften, creating more oxygenation to the areas of tightness. The underlying muscle tension can be alleviated before or after the massage, which will help to improve recovery time, by reducing any muscle soreness. The recommended time of treatment on the mattress until regularly used to the heat is 20 minutes at a temperature of 45-60 degrees. The Rock Therapy Mattress can be used for up to an hour at 70 degrees.

Massage can soothe away stiffness, tension and stress, creating more relaxation to tight muscles and joints. As with the sports massage treatment a full consultation is taken a your first session to establish key areas of tension and to agree aims and objectives for maximum benefit!
"Diane is without doubt the best masseuse that I have found in the Bath area. Her detailed knowledge and understanding of how the body works quickly enables her to diagnose the problem that you are experiencing and the cause. Most recently, I went to see Diane with a hamstring injury a couple of days before the Bath half marathon fearing that I would have to withdraw."
