Discover the Benefits of Massage Therapy at Bearded Bear Massage

Restorative • Grounding • Attentive

At Bearded Bear Massage, a full body session is more than a series of manual techniques; it is a structured, immersive treatment designed to support nervous system regulation, enhance bodily awareness, and encourage a deeper sense of ease and reconnection. Each session is delivered with a strong emphasis on comfort, informed consent, and practitioner presence, creating a space where clients can relax fully and feel supported throughout.

My approach integrates slow, deliberate strokes with firm, grounding pressure, delivered through a floor-based system refined over many years of clinical practice. Treatments take place on thick, Thai-style matting—gently heated during cooler months—which allows for greater freedom of movement, seamless transitions, and expansive bodywork without the physical constraints of a treatment table. This method enables close, responsive contact while maintaining clear professional boundaries, resulting in a massage that feels stable, contained, and deeply settling.

Session length is tailored to individual needs, whether you choose 60, 90, 120, or an extended 180-minute treatment. Regardless of duration, the pace remains unhurried and responsive. As the session progresses, muscular tension gradually releases, breathing naturally deepens, and the body begins to soften and recalibrate. The experience is characterised by warmth, rhythm, and mindful touch, supporting a level of relaxation that often extends well beyond the treatment itself.

On arrival, you will be welcomed into a calm, low-lit treatment room designed to promote comfort, discretion, and a sense of safety. Following a brief consultation, you will undress to your preferred level and settle onto the prepared mat.

Treatment is guided by the body’s responses, using long, flowing strokes across the back and legs, focused restorative work through areas commonly holding tension such as the hips and shoulders, and gentle breath-led techniques to encourage release. Consistent, grounding contact is maintained throughout, supporting a feeling of stability and reassurance.

Longer sessions allow time for more comprehensive full-body work and deeper restorative techniques, giving the body the opportunity to unwind gradually and return towards a balanced, regulated state.

This treatment may be particularly suitable if you are seeking:

• A calming, grounded massage experience delivered with care, trust, and professional presence
• Physical recovery following stress, training, or prolonged work demands
• A quiet, contained environment in which to switch off and feel supported
• A slow, connected style of massage that prioritises safety, comfort, and nervous system regulation
