About.

Rebecca Jones
Massage Therapist
Rebecca has always been interested in massage therapy, not only because it makes people feel physically healthier, but that it can reset the mind as well. This, combined with her love of helping others, prompted her to start practicing as a therapist in 2013.
At first, it was purely to accompany her professional acting career, however whenever she started any new rehearsal for a production, she would often get requests to massage her castmates. This enthusiasm, combined with her passion, lead her to continue to study and Rebecca gained a distinction in her iTEC Level 3 and Anatomy & Physiology certificates from the London School of Massage. She worked for the company Massage Angels in Westfield, London for 7 years where she delivered seated head, neck, and shoulder massages. She has since gone on to gain certificates in Deep Tissue, Chair Acupressure, and Pregnancy Massage through Gateway Workshops and has a drive to add more specialisms in the future.
Rebecca is a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists, with insurance underwritten by Hiscox.

Treatments.

Relaxation Massage (akin to Swedish Massage)

This whole-body therapeutic massage treatment works the soft tissues and muscles to help restore health, creating a calming and balancing effect on the nervous system. The technique aims to promote relaxation by releasing muscle tension. This massage is gentler than deep tissue and better suited for people interested in relaxation and tension relief. If you've never had a full body massage before - this is a good place to start.

Deep Tissue Massage

This treatment focuses on releasing the myofascial restrictions of the deeper muscles, tendons and ligaments of the body. It employs techniques to work below superficial connective tissue with the intent of breaking up old structural patterns and allowing the free flow of nutrients and oxygen to the blood. It also requires the therapist to apply considerable amounts of pressure which in some cases may cause some discomfort, however we will always work within the comfort zone of the client.

Customer reviews.

Rebecca’s deep tissue massages are amazing. Rebecca is extremely professional and caring. She makes you feel really comfortable and makes sure she listens to your specific areas of concern / issues. Would recommend her to anyone.
'I hadn’t realised just how knotted and tight my back, shoulders and neck were from working with a room full of under 18 month olds until I’d been to see Becky! Her relaxation massages have not only helped to relieve the tensions and stresses in my upper body, but also helped to prevent further aches and pains from developing in the first place! Becky is friendly and welcoming, talking through how I am since the last treatment, checking what is needed for the current one and planning ahead for further sessions. She knows what she’s taking about, answers questions and gives explanations so I know exactly what is happening, and has loads of good helpful suggestions as well. I cannot recommend Becky highly enough!'
Amazing pregnancy massage during my third trimester. Rebecca is wonderful - so friendly and knowledgable and made me feel totally relaxed whilst working through all my aches, pains and problem areas. Can’t wait to visit again - would highly recommend.
