Deep Tissue Massage South Kensington

At Dr & Spa, the therapist will focus on areas of your body where you can feel tension and pain to release the knots in your muscles and restore their elasticity. The therapist may use his or her fingertips, knuckles, hands, elbows and forearms on the areas where you feel tension and pain. For the best results, the massage therapist will use a combination of oils with massage strokes that are slower and deeper to that of a classic massage to cause friction which is applied across the grain of the muscles. This releases the toxins within your muscles and enables the blood and oxygen to flow around your body properly.
