Brilliant massage, was just what I needed. The treatmemt room is small and so the focus is more on the treatment than the ambience. Although there was music, I could hear people arriving at reception and hear the phone going off all the time, so in that sense it wasn't a true escapism.
This was the worst, most painful massage I have ever had. I have had many many deep tissue/sports massages and this one was unsafe. She created bruising along my back and shoulders along my spine. My back has had pain for many days after the treatment when lightly touched. She needs to know NOT to massage directly on the spine.
You have to pay in cash and I didn't remember reading that on the website, but there is a corner shop close by where you can withdraw cash (for a £1.50) charge. The therapist was really nice, asked what pressure I wanted and was really good.
