DEEPLY RESTORATIVE. PROFESSIONALLY DELIVERED. TRULY INVIGORATING.
Located within the award-winning Chiropractic First clinic — just steps from Hove train station — Hove Massage offers a standard of therapeutic care that goes far beyond a typical massage.
Whether you're recovering from a sports injury, carrying the weight of everyday stress, or simply overdue some time for yourself, Alice is here to help you feel genuinely better.
With over 20 years of clinical experience and advanced training in deep tissue, Swedish, sports, and Indian head massage, Alice brings a level of expertise and personal attention that's rare to find.
treatments.
Every session is tailored to you. Here's what Alice offers.
Deep Tissue & Swedish Massage OR SPORTS MASSAGE.
Deep Tissue and Swedish
60 minutes — £60 | 25 minutes — £35
Whether you need focused clinical work or full-body relaxation, this is the session most patients come back to again and again. Alice combines deep tissue and Swedish techniques to release chronic muscle tension, improve circulation and leave you feeling genuinely restored — not just temporarily relaxed.
Best for: Stress, tension headaches, postural pain, general fatigue, desk workers, and anyone who hasn't had a massage in too long.
Sports
60 minutes — £60 | 25 minutes — £35
Designed for active bodies and those recovering from injury, sports massage goes deeper than relaxation work — targeting the specific muscles, tendons and fascia under strain. Whether you're training regularly, returning from injury or dealing with a recurring niggle that won't shift, Alice's clinical approach gets to the root of the problem rather than masking it.
Best for: Runners, cyclists, gym-goers, sports injuries, muscle tightness, strains and sprains, and post-event recovery.
Indian Head Massage
60 minutes — £60
A focused treatment working across the scalp, neck, shoulders and upper back — the areas where most of us hold the most tension without realising it. Rooted in a 1,000-year tradition of Ayurvedic practice, Indian head massage relieves the physical symptoms of stress while calming the nervous system and clearing mental fatigue.
Best for: Tension headaches, migraines, neck and shoulder pain, eye strain, difficulty switching off, and anyone who spends long hours at a screen.

60 min REFLEXOLOGY.
60 minutes — £60
A deeply relaxing, non-invasive therapy that works through precise pressure applied to specific points on the feet, lower legs or hands — each corresponding to a different system or organ in the body. Clients often describe it as one of the most profoundly relaxing treatments they've ever experienced, with benefits that extend well beyond the session itself.
Best for: Stress and anxiety, poor sleep, low energy, hormonal balance, digestive issues, and anyone seeking a deeply restorative treatment that doesn't involve physical manipulation.

HOW IT WORKS.
Booking with Alice is straightforward. Here's what to expect from start to finish.
1. BOOK APPOINTMENT
1. Choose Your Treatment & Book Online
Browse the treatments above and select the one that feels right for you. Booking takes less than two minutes through our secure online system — you can choose your date, time and treatment.
Prefer to speak to someone first? Call us on 01273 324466 or send a message and Alice will help you decide which treatment is best suited to your needs.
2. Confirm Your Appointment
Once booked, you'll receive a confirmation email with everything you need to know about your visit — including the clinic address, what to bring and what to expect. You'll also be invited to set up a secure patient account through our booking platform, Jane, which lets you manage your appointments, access receipts and set your reminder preferences.
Appointment reminders are sent by both email and text in advance of your session so there are no surprises.
3. YOUR FIRST VISIT AND TREATMENT
We ask first-time patients to arrive 10 minutes early to complete a short health history form. This takes just a few minutes and helps Alice understand your medical background, any areas of concern, and what you're hoping to achieve from the session.
Everything you share is strictly confidential and used only to ensure your treatment is safe, effective and tailored to you. No treatment will proceed without your full informed consent.
Alice will take you through to the treatment room, talk you through the plan for the session and answer any questions before starting. Throughout the treatment, she will check in on pressure, comfort and how you're feeling.
Your session is always adapted to how you feel on the day — whether that means going deeper into a problem area, easing off somewhere sensitive, or adjusting the focus entirely. You are always in control.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT OUR MASSAGE CLINIC
our clinic.
Where Massage Therapy Meets Clinical Excellence
Hove Massage is based inside Chiropractic First — one of the most established, most reviewed and most trusted multidisciplinary health clinics in Brighton and Hove. Founded in 2006, the clinic has spent nearly two decades building a reputation for exceptional patient care, rigorous professional standards and genuinely life-changing results.
When you book with Hove Massage, you are not booking a treatment room in a beauty salon or a spare room in a shared office. You are stepping into a dedicated clinical environment staffed by healthcare professionals — and that distinction matters.
The Clinic
Chiropractic First Ground Floor, 82 Goldstone Villas Hove BN3 3RU
Situated directly outside Hove train station, the clinic is one of the most conveniently located health practices in the area. Whether you are travelling from Brighton, Portslade, Shoreham or further afield, arriving is straightforward — on foot from the station in under a minute, or by car with on-street parking available on Goldstone Villas and surrounding roads.
The clinic is clean, calm and professionally run. Treatment rooms are private, fully equipped and prepared to the highest standards of hygiene between every appointment. You will always be greeted warmly and given time to settle before your session begins.
A Multidisciplinary Team Under One Roof
What sets Chiropractic First apart from a standalone massage studio is the breadth of expertise available within a single building. The clinic's team of twelve specialists includes:
Chiropractors — treating back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches and sports injuries through evidence-based spinal and musculoskeletal care
Massage Therapists — Alice provides clinical and therapeutic massage across a full range of modalities, from deep tissue and sports massage to reflexology and Indian head massage
Rehabilitation Specialists — developing personalised recovery programmes for patients returning from injury or surgery
Shockwave Therapists — delivering non-invasive treatment for tendinitis, plantar fasciitis and other persistent musculoskeletal conditions
Wellness & Diagnostic Services — including blood tests, food intolerance testing and general health screening
For patients whose needs extend beyond massage therapy alone, this means joined-up care without the need to travel between multiple providers. Alice works collaboratively alongside the wider clinical team, and referrals between disciplines happen naturally when a patient's condition calls for it.
Our Standards
Every practitioner at Chiropractic First and Hove Massage is fully qualified, professionally insured and regulated by the relevant governing body for their discipline. We do not cut corners on training, hygiene or patient safety — and we never have.
What you can always expect:
A thorough consultation before your first treatment
Full informed consent before any session begins
Complete confidentiality of your health information
Staggered appointments with deep cleaning between every client
Honest advice about whether a treatment is right for your condition
A clinical environment that meets the highest professional standards
If a treatment is not appropriate for you, we will tell you — and where possible, point you toward what is.
Our Ethos
We believe that feeling well is not a luxury. It is something every person deserves access to — and something that consistent, expert therapeutic care can genuinely deliver.
Too many people put up with pain, tension, stress and restricted movement for far longer than necessary, either because they do not know where to turn or because they assume professional care is out of reach. Hove Massage exists to change that. Our prices are fair, our appointments are accessible, and our commitment to results is unconditional.
Whether you are coming to us with a long-standing injury, a body worn down by years of desk work, or simply the accumulated tension of a difficult few months — you will be taken seriously, listened to carefully and treated with genuine skill.
