What is Clinical Massage?
Who could benefit from a clinical massage approach?

Anyone who presents with an ailment, condition, injury, dysfunction or condition (as summarised below) or those seeking to maintain a good state of health and wellbeing can greatly benefit from regular clinical massage care.

Clinical Massage Therapy is a targeted, evidence-informed, whole-body assessment-led practice which focuses on evaluating, treating, and preventing soft tissue and musculoskeletal dysfunction, pain, and physical impairment through scientific manipulation and rehabilitative exercise.

Through postural assessment and Orthopedic testing, clinical massage focuses on addressing the underlying causes of restriction, pain, injury and dysfunction in the body.

I was delighted with my treatment with Andrew. The front of my left ankle had been giving me pain and consequently my 8,000 steps a day had reduced to just 1,200 steps a day, due to my ankle pain. Unfortunately, the GP couldn't help. A course of treatment with a physiotherapist did not improve my symptoms.

After just two treatments with Andrew, I was pain free. I was so pleased as I could increase my walking distances again. Andrew is a gifted individual with amazing attention to detail for finding a solution to my ankle pain. I am truly grateful he was able to help.

I highly recommend Sacred Tree Wellness.

They helped me enormously with neck and arm pain caused by radiculopathy. The treatment itself was excellent, but what really stood out was the whole-person approach. The conversations were thoughtful and insightful, helping me recognise that I needed to rebalance parts of my life to reduce the chances of these issues recurring in the future.

Professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely interesting to talk to. I left feeling not only physically better, but with a better understanding of how to look after myself going forward.

Would definitely recommend!
