Andrew Aitken is a specialist soft-tissue therapist who has a hands-on, holistic approach to your health, working with you in a manner that takes into account your work, sporting pastimes and lifestyle as much as possible.
Andrew is qualified as a 'remedial massage therapist' which basically means massage that can help the body to start healing itself.
While the primary aim is to release physical tension and stresses in the connective tissues and muscles of your body, the reduction of mental stress and anxiety is an important secondary consideration to your health and wellbeing.
Andrew uses many 'kinds' of massage, but at the end of the day, different techniques or 'kinds' of massage are a bit like tools in a toolbox - you use the right one for the right job.
It's simply massage that works with a focus on structural bodywork and myofascial release.
The only internationally qualified therapist in Glasgow working in this way.
Of course if you don't fancy all this technical stuff, then just come along for a nice, full body massage. Book in for an hour, or two if you choose, and just enjoy the relaxing experience.
