About Sage
What makes Sage Massage different? We don't believe in "one-size-fits-all" massage. Though spa massages can be relaxing, many spa therapists don't have time to sit down and speak to their clients beforehand. This means you often end up with a more generic "relaxation" massage, instead of a holistic treatment that has been specially tailored for you.
At Sage, we do things differently. Our therapists have a pre-massage consultation with each and every client, taking into account your needs for the session, both physically and mentally.
Whether you would like a massage for a specific reason, such as:
- Muscle tension
- A health condition or injury
- Stress
- Insomnia
Or maybe you just want a some 'me-time' to relax - we will listen to what you want, to provide the best massage possible.
Sage Massage is run by Katie - she is fully insured, a registered member of the Guild of Holistic Therapists, and qualified with the Massage Training Institute. The Massage Training Institute is considered to be the gold standard for holistic massage training and is recognised by the Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).
Also working with us is Gabija, an experienced therapist who holds an IES Certificate in Massage Therapy, YMCA Level 4 Certificate in Sports Massage Therapy and a Level 3 Diploma in Performance massage from Cambridge Regional College. Gabija is fluent in English and Lithuanian.

Why Massage?
Eases Pain and Muscular Tension
The physical stressors of everyday life can lead to stiffness and pain in our bodies. Massage breaks down the build-up of muscular tension by separating and loosening muscle fibres which reduces pain, increases flexibility and improves circulation. This allows the muscles to heal and restores movement to the body.
Relieves Stress
Enhances Exercise Performance
Better Sleep
Massage releases muscle tension, improves circulation and encourages the removal of waste products such as lactic acid during high intensity activity. It also helps to relax the body. All of this enhances exercise performance, promotes recovery and reduces the chances of muscle injury.
The positive impacts of massage on the body and mind are well documented. Massage activates the parasympathetic nervous system, or the "rest and digest" state. This slows our heart and breathing rates, lowers blood pressure and promotes digestion. Our body enters a state of relaxation, and this relaxation breeds recovery.
Studies confirm that massage can have a significant impact on sleep quality by reducing physical discomfort and mental stress. Physically relaxing the body and quietening the mind can make it easier to fall asleep. Massage therapy also increases serotonin levels, which influences the production of melatonin, the hormone needed for a functional sleep-wake cycle.
