Here at Urban we use massage therapy an effective technique for releasing tension and restoring balance to the musculoskeletal system.  This type of treatment has been practiced and present for centuries and involves gentle manipulation of superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue using various techniques, to enhance function, aid in the healing process, decrease muscle over activity and promote relaxation and wellbeing. As well as the numerous physiological benefits, massage can help to reduce stress, anxiety, enhancing self-esteem and improving overall wellbeing.
