Massage Therapy in Trafford

Massage is often seen as a therapy purely for relaxation, however it does have a range of other benefits for both your physical and mental wellbeing. As Trafford physiotherapists, we often recommend massage or sports massage as part of a treatment plan.

You can also book a massage simply as a standalone treatment. Our highly qualified team are experienced in the full spectrum of techniques including Indian head massage, aromatherapy and Swedish massage.

We offer a personal approach to your treatment, working hard to understand what you’re looking to achieve and tailoring your therapy accordingly.

At Total Physiotherapy Trafford, as well as massage and physiotherapy, we also offer a number of other complementary therapies. Choose from a range of different psychological services to help improve your mental health, including CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy).
