The forearms and elbows are used to reach the deeper muscles, providing medium to deep pressure and slower strokes help to roll through the muscle leaving you feeling stretched and realigned.
This type of massage can sometimes feel a little sore during or after treatment because the friction techniques used go across the muscle fibre. However when applied correctly it can be a pleasant experience, people with a lower pain threshold needn’t avoid this treatment as the pressure is slowly increased.
I just wanted to thank you for the incredible massage you gave me earlier. For the first time in about 6 months I am pain free! And it feels wonderful! All thanks to your magic hands.– Lally, Edinburgh
