  • Deep tissue is a technique that uses firm pressure to provide sensory input to the deeper layers of muscle.

    Remedial is a clinical and often targeted treatment style that requires a Diploma in Remedial Massage to practice. If the client’s complaint requires it, deep tissue is one of the many techniques that I would apply during a treatment.

  • Lloyd’s philosophy is that treatments should not be painful, but allow for some bearable discomfort.

    Any discomfort you experience during the treatment should be mitigated through deep breathing.

    Remember that you are in control during a massage, if something doesn’t feel good speak up!

  • A successful treatment with cups may lead to some circular marks on the body, however if the dosage has been applied correctly they should not be bruises.

    The marks are light capillary breaks that help to refresh the lubricant (Matrix) between the layers of fascia which allow for improved quality of movement. There should be no pain associated with the marks after a cupping session.

  • YES!

    Repetitive stroking movements along the body help to calm the nervous system. A calm nervous system can reduce the tension in the body and influence mood.

    If Remedial Massage is specific ‘maintenance’ Relaxation Massage is a whole system treatment.

  • The answer to this varies drastically depending on the case. Some people prefer to get regular massage as it helps them to feel good. For others addressing a specific concern is the focus and they may book more regularly for a short period of time.

    A treatment plan is made during the consult of your appointment to determine what is an appropriate amount of time between treatments to support the client’s needs.

    A few key factors that Lloyd considers when making the plan include:

    • Client’s goal for treatment

    • Availability

    • Cost effectiveness

    • Other interventions
