Back Massage

Back Massage in Edinburgh

With more than seventy muscles in the adult back, there is a lot which can go wrong. When this happens, it can affect every area of the body and can bring daily life grinding to a halt. If this is something that you struggle with, then you may find that you would benefit from a regular back massage. Edinburgh is home to a number of specialist venues and experienced massage therapists who are ready and waiting to help you get back on your feet.

Before attending your appointment, your chosen massage therapist will discuss what to expect with you. They may also ask about any relevant health conditions which could affect your ability to have a back massage. This could include issues with mobility which would mean that laying for long periods of time would be challenging. If you aren’t suitable for a back massage, then your masseuse will usually be able to suggest an alternative.

During your session, your therapist will identify areas of stiffness and tension within the muscles, joints and ligaments. They will then work to release these areas in order to provide a better range of motion, improved flexibility and decreased pain and tenderness. Many people find that massage treatments offer additional benefits such as better sleeping patterns, an ability to manage stressful situations more easily and lower levels of anxiety.
