Even Artists Need Massage Relief

As an artist and a massage therapist, I understand the unique physical demands of creative work. Whether you’re standing at an easel for hours, hunched over a sculpture, or repetitively sketching, your body absorbs the strain—often without you realising it.
Why Artists Benefit from Massage:
✔ Relieves Postural Stress – Painting, sculpting, and drawing often involve prolonged static positions, leading to neck, shoulder, and back tension.
✔ Prevents Repetitive Strain – Fine motor movements (like brushwork or carving) can cause wrist, hand, and forearm fatigue.
✔ Improves Flexibility & Mobility – Creative work can stiffen muscles, restricting movement over time. Massage helps maintain fluidity.
✔ Reduces Mental Fatigue – Artistic focus is mentally draining. Massage lowers stress hormones and boosts mental clarity.
✔ Enhances Body Awareness – Many artists disconnect from physical strain while immersed in work. Massage reconnects you to your body’s needs.
My Approach:
As both an artist and a therapist, I tailor sessions to target the specific strains of creative work—whether it’s easing a painter’s stiff shoulders or relieving a sculptor’s tight forearms.
Your art deserves your full energy—don’t let physical tension hold you back.
