SERVICES
SPORTS MASSAGE

Sports massage is a good option if you have a repetitive use injury to a muscle, such as what you may get from playing a sport. It’s also a good option if you’re prone to injuries because it can be used to help prevent sports injuries. You may also use sports massage to increase flexibility and performance. Additionally, sports massage can be used to relieve pain, anxiety, and muscle tension. 

TRIGGER POINT MASSAGE

Trigger point massages are best suited for people who have injuries, chronic pain, or a specific issue or condition. Sometimes areas of tightness in the muscle tissues, known as trigger points, can cause pain in other parts of the body. By focusing on relieving trigger points, this type of massage can reduce pain.

WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SAID

"I suffered terribly for weeks with a pinched nerve in the back of my leg and spent so much money for therapy which still did not help with my condition, I then had 2 sessions with Lauren and I felt like a new person. The pain was gone and has not reoccurred again to this day. My husband and I along with my other family members will only make use of Lauren’s services, she has the knowledge, the strong hands, the flexibility of time and very accommodating. What I like most about Lauren is she follows up after each session to see how you are and has a true passion for what she does. You don’t often find a therapist who genuinely cares so much”  - Bianca

 " To address muscular pain you need a strong Massage Professional with a solid knowledge of anatomy and the workings of muscle groups, exceptionally strong but healing hands, and a superb sense of humour to ease you through the pain into relief - all of which Lauren has in abundance!!   For over a year now Lauren has been (mostly) travelling to our home to treat my wife and I, and the small travelling fee is so worth it to be in your home environment. Whether a regular massage, or responding to our sometimes acute conditions, Lauren is exceptionally accommodating and caring.  Thai massages are super for relaxation but for serious sports injuries or rehabilitation, and physical medical conditions, Lauren's massages are the only remedies for us!!  Highly recommended!!'' - Dave

“Best massage experience I’ve ever had. Because Lauren understands the muscle and skeletal anatomy so well she able to give excellent massages. Very professional and very passionate about what she does, I definitely recommend her over any spa I’ve been to.” - Refentse

"Lauren is an amazing person, talking to her felt like i knew her before. She is good with what she does and while she was busy massaging also giving me advices of do's and don'ts of running. And one other thing I love and appreciate about her is that she checks up on me almost everyday. I am truly honoured." - Fortune
