Emma Thomson Massage Therapy

Temporary Closure 🌟

I’ll be away exploring Aus & NZ for a wee while so our Tuesday sessions will be on pause for a few weeks! This means there’s only a few more weeks to get yourselves booked in before I leave.

Thank you to everyone for your support so far and I’ll be ready for you all when I’m back ❤️

Cupping therapy ✨

An ancient technique with real, modern benefits.

Cupping uses gentle suction to lift the skin and fascia, helping increase blood flow, release muscle tension, and support the body’s natural healing process. Cupping is likely to leave circular marks which is totally normal and temporary- lasting up to 20 days before they disappear. They’re a sign of stagnation being brought to the surface, not bruising.

I like to describe cupping as a negative pressure against the body- creating space between muscle tissue and fascia for blood flow to do its job in repair and recovery.

Many people use cupping for pain relief, faster recovery, stress reduction, and improved mobility. Your body does the rest.

Try cupping by booking a sports massage with me, it’s personal fave 😘

I hope everyone has a lovely Christmas 🎄

Thank you for all your support this year, I feel very lucky to have a job I love with clients I’m genuinely excited to see each week. Here’s to another year of learning new things, helping more people and working more events 🥂

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Give the gift of relaxation this Christmas time 🎁💝

What can I provide that not many therapists can?

✨👣Cupping x Reflexology 👣✨

There are thousands of benefits of reflexology and thousands for cupping so when the two therapies are blended it is magical for aiding in:

✨removing blockages from the body’s energy channels and regulatory systems
✨speeds up the recovery process from illnesses and ailments
✨reduces bloating, menstrual cramps, endometriosis symptoms, PMS symptoms
✨ targets what needs to heal in the body at a much deeper and advanced level
✨reduces swelling and bone pain for those with arthritis and mobility issues

The list goes on and on.

What you can see in the video on the next slide is the cup creating a negative pressure force against the tendon and tissue in the sole of the foot. This creates space for oxygenated blood to heal the area and creates space for trapped tension to be broken up and released.

Reminder I have an option to add a taster session of reflexology onto your massage on my website.

Have you tried reflexology OR cupping? What was your experience and what do you think of the combination? Let’s talk in the comments! ✨

my fave methods to use during ALL my treatments! The liquid-wax formula is an absolute dream combo of grippy and smooth for sports and Swedish massage and the wee wax pots are perfect for reflexology 🤍

All vegan and nut free formulas with the most GORGEOUS scents- you’ll leave feeling and smelling absolutely divine- if you know you know ✨

Treatment Menu Upgrade!!! 🫧🤍✨

You guys voted on if you’d rather a new treatment or a giveaway for our one year anniversary and since the vote was split…. You shall receive both!

A 45 minute taster of reflexology is now available for you to add onto any of your treatments. Perfect for those who are curious to try out this ancient practice but still want to come for their regularly scheduled massage without forking out another whole treatment worth. It’s the best of both worlds 🤍

If you would like to book a full length massage and a full length reflexology session just message me and I will adjust the booking for you 🥰

I can guarantee you will fall in love with reflexology- my clients who get this treatment are always the most relaxed as they leave my space 🫧

Have you tried reflexology before? Let everyone know what you think in the comments and let’s have a chat about it!!
