What people say about Torquay Massage.
I found my treatment extremely beneficial, professional and very relaxing.
You do a good job, keep at it!
I find that your massage is very therapeutic and on average keeps me headache free for approximately 8 weeks at a time.
The last massage had an even longer effect.

She said 'Di is simply the best therapist around'.

This massage is deeply relaxing and especially helpful if you have tight muscles or are suffering from stress.
The stones are heated and used with oils to massage the body in a similar style to Swedish massage.
