I want to help you feel your best and have freedom from pain. I use hands-on work like massage and acupuncture alongside lifestyle coaching, prehab and rehab exercise plans to get you out of pain and back into doing what you love. I want everyone to be able to feel the benefits of a massage. I understand that some people are anxious about coming for a massage.
Please don't worry! If you have any concerns or have ever had a bad experience with massage in the past please get in touch as I want to do my best to help you feel safe to visit. I respect your dignity - you get privacy to get undressed and are given a large sheet to cover up with (no tiny towels here!).

My name is Anna and back in 2015 after being made redundant from my 9-5 office job I got to follow my dream and become a massage therapist! I set up Relax Therapies and never looked back. I am a geek about how muscles work and love putting this knowledge to use in massage therapy.
I love running (albeit slowly) and lifting weights and because movement is so important to me I want my clients to have the freedom to move as much as they want to and to be able to play sports or enjoy whatever hobbies they choose.I am committed to providing safe and effective massage and sports therapy.

This is for you if you have an injury or are in pain and no you don't have to be sporty to have Sports Massage Therapy! Sports Massage Therapy combines massage techniques with knowledge of anatomy of movement and so isn't "just" a massage. Sports massage therapy is not painful - sometimes a little uncomfortable when I am working on "tight" muscles but I don't believe massage needs to be painful to help.
Acupuncture involves the insertion of tiny needles into points on the body known as acupuncture points. Acupuncture points are located along channels known as meridians. Where the needles are placed depends on the issue. Normally most needles placed around the painful area (for example if it's knee pain around the knee and leg) but also perhaps a couple in other points away from the painful area.
Deep tissue massage is for you if you feel a bit stiff and achey or prefer a firmer style of massage. It's great to loosen you up and help improve mobility. We do a consultation to check what your pain points are and what areas you want to focus on. You will then undress behind a screen and cover yourself with a large sheet so you never feel exposed.
Reflexology uses specialised techniques to massage the feet and lower legs. It is carried out with you either lying on your back or sitting with your legs propped up. The pressure used is quite firm so even if your feet are ticklish you should be able to relax and enjoy the treatment. The theory behind reflexology is that our feet have areas that correspond to different organs and areas of the body.

I found Anna via Google; she was one of the top three massage therapists recommended in Wirral. I was really glad when I met her for the first time; I immediately felt at ease and comfortable with her. Her knowledge and expertise have made an impact on me each time I have attended for a treatment, and this makes me feel I am not just indulging in a luxury but getting something necessary and beneficial for my whole body.

Anna is very experienced and professional. She has helped me greatly with managing my health problems. She listens and takes note of all you say, she's very discreet and considerate. I've been seeing Anna for years and can highly recommend her. I always feel better after seeing her and she has quite a few notches and treatments available to you.

I'd been having a pain in my back and hip for weeks, after trying everything myself, I found Relax Therapies through a Google search. I have to say I was so impressed with Anna's professionalism and skills. She was very thorough in identifying the route of the problem and focused the work where it was needed. I felt completely relaxed and at ease during the massage. I have already booked in for a follow up session and I have been following the advice that Anna gave me for stretches that I can do at home to help. I would highly recommend this service.

I had a very relaxing aromatherapy pregnancy massage. I was made to welcome and was warm and comfortable on my side for my massage. I had no idea how much tension i was holding around my neck and shoulders, but left feeling relieved of this, calm and very relaxed. Anna is very professional and maintains covid secure standards, i would not hesitate to recommend.

I went online to find a place to have a massage and came across Relax Therapies. I liked the website and found it easy to book an appointment. I had an initial consultation with Anna then a 45 minute deep tissue massage followed by head massage. Both were excellent and I'm really feeling the benefits today. I will be making regular appointments with Anna, and highly recommend her services.

I had my very first appointment yesterday at Relax Therapies with Anna (23/7/20) of which I was overwhelmed with the standard of service and professionalism. The cleanliness and amount of anti covid measures and general hygiene is excellent.
I have booked my next appointment for 2 weeks time and I would highly recommend Relax Therapies for doing a fantastic job and for easing the pain in my shoulders and for giving me a better quality of life.
Very well done Anna 5 stars......
And see you soon...
Kindest Regards Peter
