Remedial Massage for Wivenhoe Community
Wivenhoe residents often find themselves living with tension they've grown used to. A tight neck from years of computer work, lower back stiffness that comes and goes, or shoulders that won't relax. Fiona's clinical approach to remedial massage aims to solve these patterns, not just provide temporary relief. Over 25 years of practice means she can read muscle patterns quickly and identify which tension is protecting something, which is just fatigue, and which is postural. Many Wivenhoe clients book their first session expecting a one-off treat and end up committing to a course because the results speak for themselves.

That's often a postural or habitual holding pattern. Fiona will identify which muscles are chronically tight, release them, and teach you how to notice when you're tensing again. Real change requires a course of treatment, not a one-off.
Assessment is first. She'll ask about your history, palpate your muscles, assess range of motion, and listen to what you describe. Then treatment is built from what she finds. Expect questions, not assumptions.
Yes, parking is available at The Manor Health & Wellness Centre, 11 Manor Road, Colchester CO3 3LX. The journey from Wivenhoe is straightforward with good access.
She treats the whole pattern, not isolated areas. Tight hip flexors often drive lower back strain. Shoulder tension often causes referred neck pain. She'll release what needs releasing and show you the links.
Yes. Fiona will give you stretches or movement advice specific to what she treated. Many Wivenhoe clients find doing these between sessions speeds improvement and prevents old patterns returning.
