Many people consider massage a pampering experience, but it has proven to have important health benefits.
A criticism quite often leveled at conventional medical practice, is that it fails to operate a genuinely preventive service, in that it concerns itself only with the management of ill-health. However, many people now accept the idea that the mind and body are interrelated, and that it is possible to participate more fully in the healing process.

Today, Massage therapy is one of the fastest growing forces in the field of health care.
The human body holds all the traumas, pain, distress, tension and emotional crisis within it's muscular structure. Every thought and feeling we have is etched in our body, the map of our experiences.

Massage is simply the manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, the muscles, tendons, ligaments and is beneficial in treating a wide range of conditions, including muscle spasms and pain, soreness from injury, headaches, insomnia, drainage of the sinus fluids, depression, improved blood circulation, stimulation of the lymphatic system (which carries away the bodies waste products, aiding in detoxification) and helps pain management in conditions such as arthritis and sciatica.

Tessa is a fully trained professional who can be found at Women in Mind, 24 Castle street, Shrewsbury. She also runs a mobile service to those who prefer or cannot leave their homes. She is experienced in massage for the elderly and physically and mentally challenged.
