Sports and Deep Tissue Massages

Sports and deep tissue massage address issues such as back and shoulder pain, neck ache, sciatica, overuse syndrome, tension headaches and postural imbalances. These treatments are intensive and involve stretching, mobilisation and manipulation of the fascia that envelopes the muscles. Regular sessions can help release tension and improve posture.

Many of my clients experience tension in the neck, shoulders and lower back, often caused by poor posture in an office environment or inadequate ergonomic setup and limited movement while working from home. I offer advice and my treatments often provide immediate relief from discomfort.

Therapeutic Massage

With Therapeutic massage, I approach your body holistically. I use similar techniques as in deep tissue massage, but the strokes are gentler and slower aimed at releasing both physical and emotional tensions.

This type of massage embodies the true essence of what a massage should offer. By the end of the session, you should not only feel relaxed in your muscles but also experience lifted energy and improved mood.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy massage offers the same benefits as a regular massage. Quite simply, your “Feel Good” massage. Its primary purpose is to relax muscles, ease tension and improve circulation. Many women experience shoulder, neck, hip and lower back pain during pregnancy due to changes in their centre of gravity and the loosening of pelvic ligaments and joints.

During the treatment, you will be positioned carefully to ensure optimal comfort and benefit. For instance, while treating your back you will be placed on your side with ample support to ensure safety and comfort for both you and your baby.

A belly massage is performed only upon your request. If at any point during treatment you feel discomfort, please inform me, and I will adjust the pressure accordingly.

Prenatal massage is safest after the first trimester and can be beneficial up to and even beyond your due date. This natural massage can also be given after childbirth. In the case of a C-section, it’s essential to ensure complete healing of the scar tissue before receiving a massage.

Rapid Neurofascial Reset+

RAPID NeuroFascial Reset is a quick and effective technique that addresses tension and restrictions in the body by targeting the central nervous system. It can be used by all healthcare professionals to alleviate pain in patients. Conditions that can benefit from RAPID include headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and more. By targeting the body’s perception of threat and danger, RAPID guides the brain to a state of safety, thereby reducing pain and restrictions. The technique uses nociception and movement to induce a combination of descending inhibition and vasodilation, resulting in immediate and lasting pain reduction. Additionally, RAPID can assist in addressing old injuries by eliminating neuroimmunological factors and desensitising the nervous system. Treatment involves hands-on palpation and specific patient movements. While some sensations may be uncomfortable, they lead to restored function. RAPID is chosen for its prompt response and effectiveness in treating both acute and chronic conditions. Each session lasts 30 minutes and can be conducted with the client fully clothed.

TESTIMONIALS

I owe Claudia my first London Marathon! She not only did an excellent Sport massage which did real miracles to my training tired body ahead of the big day. She also gave me invaluable advice about further training regime and general sort of profiling of my muscular and ligament systems. Very grateful. Highly recommended!

Claudia definitely has gifted hands. She’s extremely knowledgeable in the therapeutic area, personable, professional and effective!! One of my “must do’s” when I’m in London.

Gregory Wigan

Claudia is truly wonderful at what she does! I’ve been benefiting from her magical hands, warmth and professionalism for years. She clearly has a great understanding of human physiology but also works by intuition and skill. I can’t recommend Claudia highly enough.

Fantastic sports massage with Claudia. She knows all the trigger points to work on, especially in the shoulder blade region.

I have been going to Claudia at the Greenwich Natural Health Centre for over 10 years and she is AMAZING!!! She gives deep, therapeutic massage and has been incredible sorting out my tight back. On top of being an excellent therapist she is a warm and caring person who puts you at ease making for a wonderful massage. Cannot recommend highly enough.

This was my first session with Claudia, WHY did I leave it for so long?? Absolutely FABULOUS, if sore at times! I felt incredibly relaxed at the end, and I am walking better today. Highly recommended 😊😊
