Massage is probably the oldest healing art, practised in virtually all cultures, since people have instinctively rubbed or probed around painful body areas. Records and depictions date back to the Egyptians. Chinese medicine, combining manual handling and pressure points with breathing and physical exercise, and Indian ayurvedic medicine, combining massage with herbal treatments, have been practised continually for five millennia. These healing systems were based on the notion of regulating and promoting "bio-energy" flow.

Three types of massages available at Inner Chord ('Remedial', 'Sports' and 'Relaxation' ) are described for your information. Just click the appropriate page for each therapy.  A description of a typical clinic appointment is also available for your perusal.
