FAQs – Massage
in Lymington
No. You can book directly for massage. If we think physiotherapy assessment will help, we will discuss this and arrange it for you.
Some people feel immediate relief. Longer-standing issues may need a short course plus simple exercises to keep results. We will give you an honest plan.
Yes, but timing matters. A lighter session 2 to 3 days before an event is usually best, with deeper work earlier in your training week
Conversational Q&A
Start with remedial massage. We will release key areas like upper traps and chest, then give posture resets you can do at your desk. If stress is a big factor, we can blend in relaxation techniques.
Every 2 to 4 weeks works for most runners during a training block, with a lighter flush a few days pre-race and a recovery session 3 to 7 days after. We will tailor frequency to your mileage and niggles.
