About Natural Touch

Our aim is to give you the best massage. The kind we would want ourselves.

We truly tailor your treatment to you

The massage style you choose is just a starting point.

Your therapist will talk with you to get an understanding of how you are, figure out the most effective way to achieve that and what approach to take. This is the basis for your treatment.

Creating your massage – more than choosing from a list

Your therapist notices how it feels and how it responds. They know what needs attention. What they discover helps them determine the next step in a cycle of deeper connection and understanding.

By intelligent, sensitive and informed work we aim to get to the heart of your needs. You’ll also be more in touch with your body.

You’ll be left feeling that you got just what you needed. Many people tell us it’s the best massage they’ve ever had.

We focus on quality massage

Every team member is MTI registered and selected for their personal and professional skills. They are friendly, thoughtful, good listeners and great massage therapists.

It’s not about products

We won’t ask you to choose products and won’t try to sell you anything.

“We booked our massages simply on the basis of reviews. We are from out of the country and were traveling through Bath. All of the therapists were excellent. They took the time to find out about the physical problems that we had and adjusted the massages accordingly. The rest of my vacation was pain free!”

Deep tissue massage in Bath

Deep tissue massage helps unlock your body. It works with the muscles and tendons which hold posture and enable activity. Where there is limited mobility we might use more pressure combined with manipulation and stretches to increase the range of movement. The focus is often on the underlying (deep) muscles involved in body use. Consider

Massage during the Jane Austen festival, Bath

Amy booked Massage for Two for herself and her mum Sakina whilst visiting Bath for the Jane Austen festival.

Nigel was Amy’s therapist. “Amy said they were attending the festival from north east England and also mentioned that her arms were aching from using a sewing machine.” It wasn’t until later that he made the connection. “Costume is a big part of the festival. It’s a time of year when Bath is transported back to the Regency period. You see groups of people in period dress wandering the city.”

Visitors to the Jane Austen festival in the streets of Bath.

It turns out Amy has a wider interest in clothing. She has her own sustainable fashion brand – The Artwear Emporium.

Sakina’s massage was with Sarah. She was enjoying the festival but realised they were doing a lot of walking. “We treat each person individually”, said Sarah, “It’s one of the things I like about working with Natural Touch.”

Amy and Sakina parade down Great Pulteney Street.

Amy was also featured in a BBC news report on the event.

The festival runs over 10 days in September and hosts dozens of events including tours, films, meals, talks, hair styling, dancing lessons, balls and a grand parade through the Georgian streets. Many of the festival’s hundreds of participants dress in period costume.

Jane Austen lived in Bath in the early part of the 1800s and the city is a setting for parts of her novels. Austen fans can retrace her steps and visit the city’s Jayne Austen museum.

The Jane Austen festival is one of many held in Bath during the year such as Bath Mozartfest, Bath Children’s Literature Festival, The Bath Festival (music), Bath Fringe Festival and Re-balance Bath.

Warning

This is not a spa treatment.

This is not a one-size-fits-all massage. This is not a salon massage.

Your treatment with us is designed to meet your needs before and during the session. We get the focus right and the pressure right. We listen to you and listen to your body. This massage is for you personally.

If you have had treatments that seem superficial – either in the way the therapist engages with you or the treatment itself you will know what we mean.

Some of our visitors are booking time in a spa to relax, but their treatments with us.

If you were looking for a spa treatment – expect something more.

Helping you find the off switch

It isn’t always easy to relax.

If it was no-one would suffer from tension, but the reality is that when we get stressed our brain won’t stop and our bodies are tight. Being able to relax can seem a million miles away. We help you come home.

Laura (not her real name) was suffering stress at work that she couldn’t let go of. Thoughts were going round in her head at night – trying to find solutions and blaming herself for not being able to sort it out. Her shoulders were stiff and sore, she was starting to get headaches and she had a week off work due to stress.

Making the decision to come for massage was a turning point – recognising that she wasn’t coping well and that it’s ok to reach out for help.

Laura’s first session established a direction. Her therapist explored her needs and suggested approaches.

They agreed her massage should focus on two areas. Firstly, working with the tightness in her body. Not trying to force out the knots, but to help connect her physical tightness with the part of her brain that’s triggering it – sending the signal back that it’s okay to let go. Secondly, the treatment helped Laura support her relationship with herself by finding ways for her to bring her attention to her body.

She left feeling calmer with a little more space in her body and her mind. She also had a sense of what it feels like to relax to take away with her and an experience of connecting with her self that will help her find her own direction through a difficult situation, helping her direct her energy away form criticising herself and towards caring for herself.

If you need help with relaxation please get in touch. We are the natural choice for massage in Bath.
