Hot stone massage uses Basalt stones, which are specialist polished and hardened volcanic stones as they retain heat, and are smooth thus not damaging your skin when giving the massage. A great way to be introduced to massage as you can remain fully clothed sitting in a chair, or lying down on my massage couch, and is a very relaxing treatment.

A relaxing, soothing, full body massage, which can include the face and head for the ultimate pampering experience. Taping is playing a very important role in many athletes these days, both as injury prevention as well as treatment. Kirstie is qualified in various taping, and can incorporate it into a treatment.

Can not recommend the clinic highly enough. The staff are outstanding, knowledgeable and supportive. Always had excellent treatment and advice for injuries, strains and post operative care on knees. Now visit for general body maintenance. My treatment was, and continues to be, worth every penny.

Kirsty and colleague were able to help me with my long term injury and inform me of an exercise regime that would help with my injury for the long term.
