DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

Massage

We offer a deep tissue massage to help loosen and stretch those muscles and help them to function better. Deep tissue massage is similar to but not as intense as Sports Massage, which we also offer (see separate page), but it does get deeper into the muscles than holistic massage.

The therapist uses either massage wax (less greasy than oil & gives more purchase) or oil and gets to the deeper muscles using hands, knuckles and elbows to loosen tightness.

WHEN IS IT AVAILABLE?

Deep tissue massage is generally available throughout the week here in Blandford.

Karen Donnelly LCCH RSHom ITEC

I am the clinic owner and a qualified Homeopath, Sports Massage & Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapist, & Bio Resonance Practitioner .

I took over ownership of the clinic in July 2014 and since then it has undergone a complete refurbishment programme. It has now been totally transformed it into a modern, welcoming and comfortable clinic.

My mission is to provide a friendly holistic multi-disciplined healthcare centre, where people know they can come for good health advice and the highest standards in individual holistic care.

I also hold a Licentiate in Homeopathy, awarded by the Contemporary College of Homeopathy where I studied under Mike Bridger, one of the best known and most well respected homeopaths in the UK.

I have been using homeopathy for over 19 years following my son’s treatment of eczema as a baby. We had tried all of the usual creams and the next step was steroids, but I was not happy to go down that route. A friend recommended homeopathy, but I was skeptical and knew nothing about it at the time. However, she persuaded me to give it a go. He was given one pill and 24 hours later his eczema had completely disappeared, not even a hint of redness remained.

This was enough to convince me that homeopathy worked and I have since given up a career as an accountant as a result.

I am also registered and fully insured with the Society of Homeopaths.

In addition I have 19 years experience as a massage therapist offering a variety of treatments including sports massage, Swedish, Holistic and Manual Lymphatic Drainage..

Rebecca Stacey LSSM IRSM

My name is Rebecca, and I’m a qualified Soft Tissue Therapist with a Level 5 BTEC Diploma from the London School of Sports Massage (LSSM) and a member of the Institute of Registered Soft Tissue Therapists (IRSM).

Alongside my work as a Soft Tissue Therapist, I am also a Registered Nurse, specialising in respiratory care. I have always had a keen interest in anatomy and physiology, and my nursing career has given me a strong understanding of the human body and the importance of supporting people to achieve better health and wellbeing.

I have experienced first-hand the far-reaching benefits of sports and remedial massage, which inspired me to develop my skills and offer this as another way of helping people feel their best. I’m passionate about helping people feel and move better, whether they’re dealing with everyday aches and pains, recovering from an injury, managing muscular tension, or simply wanting to improve their mobility.

My aim is to provide effective, personalised treatments tailored to each individual, helping you feel more comfortable, move more freely, and get back to doing the things you enjoy.
