I had a deep tissue massage by Alex which I believe was in the Ayurvedic style. It is an active form of massage as your limbs are moved with the rhythm of the massage movements, which I think helps the "pain factor" which you usually experience in a deep tissue massage become less noticeable.
Whilst Alex was extremely professional throughout, I would definitely book this treatment again.
Alex is a very knowledgeable Ayurvedic practitioner with a helpful medical background, so he really understands the body from more than one perpective. The massage is amazing and thorough and the 75 minutes is just the right ammount of time as an hour would be just too little. Alex is polite and respectful and the questionaire at the beginning really helps to get in touch with what matters to you and your health. I went to Alex with severe skin inflammation and lymphatic and liver issues. With the massage and the beautiful oils things started to improve. I have continued the routine he recommended me at home and things are getting better and better each day. Thank you so much Alex. I recommend this treatment highly!
I would highly recommend Dr. Alex to everyone! I was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience, and I will continue to go back for treatment. I had a deep tissue massage and it was fantastic. I left feeling like a completely new person! I also went to Dr. Alex to treat a back injury, and I have made exceptional progress. He is exceptionally qualified, kind, caring and very professional. The rates are also very reasonable. Two thumbs up!!
Dr Alex was a pleasure. This was my first Ayurvedic massage, and it was a unique experience. It is definitely not a typical (boring) "relaxing" massage. It is fast pace and includes stretching. It feels like a bit of a light workout. Feels great for days after! Great value! Will be back!
First time for Ayurvedic style deep tissue. Very fast, strong and oily. Extremely invigorating with limb stretching. Enjoyed the style of massage very much. I think people who are very into yoga and who like a strong massage will enjoy it. Felt very energised after with knotted neck and shoulder muscles much improved. Male therapist also a first for me (have had lots of make osteopathy before) - he was very polite.
