Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could have a massage every day of the week for self-care? Sadly, most of us don’t have the time or the money to indulge in quite such a regular massage routine, but we can make the most of massage treatments by taking care of ourselves in between massages with these self-care tips.
1) Drink the water!
There’s a reason why your therapist gives you a refreshing glass of cool water after a treatment; it’s to help hydrate your body and keep your muscles relaxed. Water is great for your skin and your muscles, plus staying hydrated can even help to prevent headaches.
2) Keep up the stretching
In between sessions, having a good stretch helps support the work that’s been done to relax your muscles on the treatment table and will make the effects of your massage last longer. It doesn’t matter when you fit your stretches in, as long as you make a habit of including stretching in your self-care daily routine.
Stretches shouldn’t ever hurt, so don’t overdo it. Easing into stretches gently, and holding them for at least a minute will give you better results than shorter, deeper stretches.
3) Epsom Salts
Epsom salt baths are great for keeping any muscle aches and stiff joints at bay – they contain magnesium which is also good for relieving stress. To prevent soreness after a massage, add Epsom salts to your bath as directed and have a relaxing self-care moment.
At MarisSage Remedial Therapies, we have a great selection of Herbal and Sandalwood Epsom Salts. Ask us on your next visit.
4) Heat or Cool it
In between massages you might start feeling that tell-tale build-up of tension – nip it in the bud with heat therapy. Applying heat can help to soothe aching muscles and relieve any tightness and tension and can improve and stimulate blood flow to the area.
If you injure yourself in between massage sessions, try using cold therapy to numb the pain. Cold therapy is good for strains, sprains and other minor injuries (if you’re unsure, or are in serious pain, see your healthcare provider).
For severe pain and/or swelling, take a cold pack (or frozen veg) and wrap it in a towel to avoid cold burns. Overdone it and got sore feet? Try rolling a frozen bottle under your foot. A thick sock works well as a barrier.
You can alternate between hot and cold therapy but always leave a period in between for your body to adjust.
5) One last and very important self-care tip – Be consistent
Make your massage sessions part of your regular self-care routine. Your therapist can advise you if you need extra sessions or just maintenance care and will make sure your massage is tailored to your needs.
” Take care of your body and it takes care of you.”
Mariska delivered the best massage I’ve had in a long time. She is knowledgeable, professional and takes the time to work out what you need. I can’t wait to see her again.

I booked a remedial massage with Marissa and really enjoyed it. She has a great technique and my body felt completely relaxed after the session. Highly recommend to anyone!

Mariska has a knack for finding the true source of your discomfort by asking questions upfront and exploring the muscles that might be feeding into the affected area while you're on the table. Additionally, she will provide you with stretches so you can maintain the much improved state you're in afterwards!

Professional, Nurturing & Exactly what I didn’t know I needed! Mariska gave me a pregnancy massage (currently 21weeks.) She was so respectful, calm and gave me options to make me most comfortable. I dropped into a very peaceful place quite quickly as I felt her confidence. Can 100% recommend Mariska to any expecting Mama - especially during such a delicate time. With her back ground in midwifery and expertise in all types of massage I felt in such safe hands. Can’t wait for my next session in 2 weeks!

I have been going to this place and getting remedial massages from Chelsea for the last few weeks for my neck and shoulder pain. Chelsea is awesome as she focussed on all the target areas and releasing my knots and relaxing the muscle groups. She is very knowledgeable and assisted me in identifying the cause of my pain. My neck and shoulder feels so much better now and I would like to continue seeing Chelsea in the future too. I would highly recommend her :)

I booked in massage with Chelsea who specilises in sport related injuries. She is superb and amazing at deep tissue nassaage, I booked in 3 sessions with her and she always worked on the sports with the most pain and I never had to explain her. That good she was with the massage and touch point. She relieved all the pain that I had due to post pregnancy and continuous body aches resulting from after care and feeding the baby. To be honest, I felt like hugging her after every session as she made me so relaxed and the pains got better with each session. I am defininately going to book more massages with her in case I need relaxation. Thank you!

I've been coming to MarisSage since mid April 2022. Initially I went in and saw Mariska for a neck/shoulder strain/injury that had been bothering me for over 2 years. I had received other therapies for it, and nothing made a difference. A day after the first massage session, I was about 90% better. After the 2nd session I was pretty much back to normal. It is not hyperbole to say that Mariska really saved me. I've since gone back to her and the other girls at the clinic for regular maintenance massages and myofascial release, all with positive results. The team there are all very talented therapists. Thank you Mariska and the team for all of your help with my health.

Mariska has been thorough in helping to work out what may be causing my pain and very effective in helping to relieve my back pain. For my first session, I arrived in agony and left feeling so much better. Each remedial massage session has helped to relieve loosen my muscles. The exercises Mariska recommends are also helpful and will make me stronger in future!

Mariska is consistently polite, listens to my health concerns and always manages to find my sore spots and sooth my aches away with her calming treatment. My lower back rarely flairs up now thanks to my regular massages with Mariska. Thank you!

Mariska is my favourite masseuse in the whole world! She puts time and effort into understanding what each of her clients need- not just in the sense that she listens to you, but she watches your body and figures out the areas that might be extra tight, or in pain, or are out of alignment. Then she sets about fixing it. In that way you aren't just going to find relief short term, but over the long term you'll find you get better and better, so you're less reliant on massages for pain relief! She is intuitive about what your needs are in each individual session too- for example, we often chat which is a lot of fun (Mariska is clever and engaging and thoughtful about life) but there have been times when I have been very stressed and very tired and in those sessions Mariska was very quiet and I almost fell asleep- just what I needed.
I'm not sure how she created such a haven amidst the hustle and bustle of Epping town centre, but that's exactly what she's done. If you're anywhere nearby, I urge you to take advantage of Mariska's magical hands! And if you're not nearby, it's worth the trip :)

Mariska is wonderful! I am so glad I found her. I went to her with chronic back pain due to work stress, bad posture and a prolonged accident injury (whiplash). She was able to quickly identify which area was causing the most pain and helped rectify it with monthly sessions. She is also educated which provides her credibility in the area of expertise. Along with massages, she also reccomends positive lifestyle changes for life lasting effects.

Mariska really helped me. She didn’t just give me healing massages (she got all the 147 knots out of my shoulder, arm and wrist), she also helped me deal with my questions on how to deal with my temporary impairment. She has a holistic approach and is clear in what she finds and in her messages. She has a good understanding of how the body works and helped me fix mine, for which I am very thankful.

I can highly recommend MarisSage reflexology sessions. I always come to a complete rest. She helps me to stop the constant flow of thoughts and calms my mind, which helps me to be less overwhelmed and more efficient during my week. A huge advantage being a busy mum and self employed business woman!!
