WHAT DOES BESPOKE REALLY MEAN AT JUST RELAX WITH EMMA?

Quite simply, it means your treatment is tailored to YOU, within your chosen appointment time.

With 17 years of experience, I've learnt that no two bodies are the same, and what your body needs today might be completely different from what it needs next time.

You choose your time, and together we tailor your treatment.

For example...

You might book The Flow, my lymphatic drainage massage, for 60 or 90 minutes, but fancy including some reflexology and an Indian head massage too. Absolutely! I can adjust the time spent on each area to incorporate all three.

Perhaps you'd like an abdominal (stomach) massage included? I can do that too.

Maybe your body would benefit from a combination of deep tissue massage, hot stones, gua sha, silicone cupping or infrared heat therapy. I can incorporate whichever techniques are most suitable for your needs.

Mobility or comfort concerns? Not everyone can comfortably get onto a massage bed, so I also have a massage chair available. I can adapt your treatment to suit your mobility, positioning and comfort.

AND HERE'S THE IMPORTANT PART...

I charge for your chosen time, NOT for every individual technique I use.

There are no additional charges for incorporating different techniques into your appointment.

Whether you want to focus on a particular problem area or enjoy a combination of treatments, I'll work with you to make the most of your time.

It's about listening to you, understanding your body and using my experience and knowledge to create a treatment that's right for you.

Because massage shouldn't be one-size-fits-all.

Your Time. Your Body. Your Treatment.

That's what bespoke means at Just Relax with Emma.

Happy Birthday to me 🤣 48 Today! What a Year It's Been! ✨

Another trip around the sun and I've officially reached the big 48! 🥂

Almost a year ago, I started making the transition to Anlaby, finally making the move in July. Looking back, it's been such a wonderful new chapter for me and my business.

I feel incredibly lucky to have found my lovely new home inside Harrington Hair, and I want to say a special thank you to Kat and Harry for making me feel so welcome from the very beginning. 🙏

And to my wonderful regular clients who've continued to support me, some for many years, thank you for coming along on this journey with me. It means more than you know.
After 17 years in the industry, I can genuinely say I absolutely love what I do. Knowing the difference I make to your lives and seeing the changes in how you feel is what makes me so happy. It's the reason I love coming to work every day.
So, as I celebrate another birthday, I'd also like to say a huge HELLO & WELCOME to everyone who's recently joined my page!

I BELIEVE IN LITTLE MIRACLES!!!

Some people call me a dreamer. I prefer to think I'm an optimist with a front-row seat to life's little miracles!

I've always been a ridiculously optimistic person. I genuinely believe that wonderful, unexpected things can happen, and I'm lucky enough to witness some of them through my work.

I once had a client who hadn't been able to bend down and tie their shoelaces without severe pain for years.

After one treatment, they could!.

They were almost in tears.

Now, to some people, that's just a successful massage. But to someone who's struggled with something so simple for so long?

That's a little miracle.

And those moments mean the absolute world to me.

Whether I'm working with an injury that's been troubling someone for 40 years, helping someone feel more comfortable in their body, or reducing facial puffiness they've struggled with for ages, I always have that little bit of hope in the back of my mind.

What if we can make a difference today?

Of course, not every treatment brings dramatic results, and I would never promise something I can't guarantee.

But I'll never lose that curiosity, determination or optimism.

I love being a facilitator, using everything I've learnt over the years to help people discover what's possible.

And every time someone gets onto my treatment couch, there's a little part of me hoping I'll be lucky enough to help make one of those little miracles happen for them.

Because sometimes the smallest changes make the biggest difference. ✨

Peace and Love

YOUR FACE NEEDS A LITTLE TLC TOO!

Have you ever woken up with puffy eyes, a swollen-looking face or that heavy feeling around your cheeks and jawline?

Just like the rest of your body, your face has its own network of lymphatic vessels, quietly working away to maintain fluid balance and support your immune system.

But did you know that gentle facial massage can help encourage the movement of excess fluid and temporarily reduce puffiness?

THE FLOW - Facial Lymphatic Drainage

One of my favourite parts of this treatment is the facial brushing!

I begin with a beautifully soft, curved brush while the skin is clean, dry and oil-free, using light, sweeping movements that follow the natural contours of your face.

It's such a simple technique, but incredibly soothing.

From there, I incorporate gentle hands-on lymphatic drainage techniques and gua sha, working carefully around the face, jawline and neck.

What can facial lymphatic drainage help with?

💚 Reducing temporary puffiness around the eyes and cheeks

💚 Encouraging natural lymphatic fluid movement

💚 Relieving feelings of facial tension and tightness

💚 Helping the face appear more refreshed and less puffy

💚 Promoting deep relaxation and a sense of wellbeing

And here's something people don't always realise...

Facial massage doesn't need to be firm to be effective.

The lymphatic vessels we're working with are close to the surface of the skin, so gentle, carefully directed movements are key.

It's not about pushing harder. It's about understanding the body and working with it.

And that is exactly what I love about this treatment.

GROWING A LITTLE HUMAN IS HARD WORK!

Your body goes through some incredible changes during pregnancy, but that doesn't mean it's always comfortable!

Aching hips, a tired lower back, heavy legs, swollen ankles... sometimes you just need someone to look after YOU for a change.

THE FLOW - Pregnancy Support Massage

Using gentle, pregnancy-adapted techniques, I focus on easing muscular tension, encouraging relaxation and helping you feel more comfortable in your changing body.

✨ Soothing tired, aching hips
✨ Easing lower back tension
✨ Gentle attention to heavy, tired legs
✨ Supporting comfort when you're feeling puffy
✨ Giving you time to completely relax

You'll be comfortably supported in a side-lying position, with the treatment adapted to your stage of pregnancy and individual needs.

Because while you're busy looking after your little one, you deserve looking after too.

FEELING BLOATED, PUFFY OR UNCOMFORTABLE?

Sometimes our tummy just needs a little TLC.
Whether you're experiencing bloating, fluid retention, abdominal tension or that uncomfortable feeling of heaviness, gentle abdominal massage can be wonderfully soothing.

THE FLOW - Abdominal Massage

Using soft, slow, rhythmic movements, I work gently with your body to encourage relaxation, support natural fluid movement and help ease feelings of tension and discomfort.

No deep pressure. No discomfort. Just a beautifully gentle, calming treatment that can leave you feeling relaxed and cared for.

Sometimes less really is more.

YOUR BODY HAS A WASTE CLEARANCE SYSTEM, BUT NO CENTRAL PUMP!

Most people know their heart pumps blood around their body. But did you know your lymphatic system works very differently?

Your lymphatic system is a network of tiny vessels, lymph nodes and organs that helps maintain fluid balance, supports your immune defences and transports certain fats from your digestive system.

So how does lymph move without a heart to pump it?

It relies on several clever mechanisms:

Muscle movement: Every time you walk, stretch or move, your muscles help propel lymph through its vessels.

Breathing: Changes in pressure inside your chest and abdomen help lymph travel towards your bloodstream.

One-way valves: These help prevent lymph from flowing backwards.

Lymphatic vessel contractions: The vessels themselves contain muscle that helps move lymph along.

And here's where lymphatic drainage massage comes in.

Using very gentle, rhythmic movements, manual lymphatic drainage can help encourage the movement of lymph and reduce certain types of swelling.

It's not about pushing harder or massaging deeper. It's about understanding the anatomy, working with the direction of lymphatic flow and using the appropriate pressure.

That's why lymphatic drainage feels so different from a traditional massage.

THE FLOW Lymphatic & Wellness Massage

Because understanding your body is the first step towards looking after it.
