What is full body massage good for, really?

It’s brilliant for easing tension and sorting out post-gym aches. A full hour with the right pressure can totally reset your body, especially if you’re sat at a desk all day. Someone at the gym near Rochdale Leisure Centre mentioned they sleep better after one, and honestly, same. It also helps with that heavy feeling you get after long weeks. Like hitting reset but without the faff of a spa day.

Are there any trusted full body massage therapists popular with locals?

Yes, a few names come up again and again in community groups, especially those near Castleton and Heywood Road. Look out for places that have actual recommendations rather than just five-star reviews from strangers. One local therapist in Healey has a proper following — her diary's always full. And if a place feels low key but booked up, chances are it’s a local fave for a reason.
