ABOUT BRIGHTON MASSAGE

Brighton Massage was founded by Michael Tees, (Mikey)

The Muscle Mechanic. A former professional dancer, triathlete, and channel swimmer with a deep understanding of the body in motion.

His journey into massage therapy began organically—offering relief to fellow dancers, swimmers and athletes alike.

 

What started as a kind gesture quickly grew into a calling. After settling in Brighton, Michael launched Brighton Massage with a simple goal: to help people feel better in their bodies. Drawing on years of hands-on experience and specialised training, he’s passionate about easing pain, releasing tension, and supporting recovery—one session at a time.

Holistic Massage

Holistic Massage is a nurturing therapy that treats the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Blending a range of gentle techniques, it aims to release tension, reduce stress, and restore balance on every level. Perfect for those seeking deep relaxation and emotional well-being, holistic massage offers a truly restorative experience.

Leg Massage Therapy

Sports Massage

Sports Massage is a targeted therapy designed for active individuals and athletes alike, to enhance performance, prevent injury, and speed up recovery. Using deep, focused techniques, it works on muscles, tendons, and connective tissue to relieve tension, improve flexibility, and support healing. Whether you're training hard or just staying active, sports massage helps keep your body performing at its best.

Hot Stones

Hot Stone Massage is a deeply relaxing therapy that combines soothing heat with traditional massage techniques. Smooth, heated basalt stones are placed on key areas of the body to melt away tension, ease muscle stiffness, and boost circulation. The gentle warmth helps calm the nervous system and promote a profound sense of wellbeing - perfect for stress relief and total relaxation.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, therapeutic massage that supports your body’s natural detox process. Using light, rhythmic strokes, MLD encourages the flow of lymph—a vital part of your immune system—to help reduce swelling, flush out toxins, and improve circulation. Unlike traditional massage, MLD focuses on stimulating lymph nodes and vessels to promote healing, boost immunity, and enhance overall wellness.

Testimonials
“I’ve had excellent sports massages from Michael (Mikey to the  channel swimming world) at Brighton Massage and highly recommend him. As a long-distance swimmer, it’s reassuring to be treated by someone who truly gets the demands of endurance sport, especially with his own background as a dancer, runner, and endurance swimmer himself. 
Mikey brings a professional, focused approach to every session and really tailors the treatment to your needs. Highly recommend for anyone seeking expert, sports-specific massage therapy. He’s known as the “Muscle Mechanic” for very good reason."
