The aim of REST UK is to provide a unique respite service to those who
serve with the Emergency Services during a disaster/critical incident.

The Respite Service

The respite service administered by REST UK is in the form of on-site chair massage.

The massage is non-invasive and non-intrusive, and has been designed specifically for rescue workers working in extreme conditions

The massage is applied to the client through clothing. The massage takes about 10-15 minutes and works on the upper and lower back, neck, head, shoulders arms and hands. The massage not only relieves physical tension but when used by REST UK's founder members at Ground Zero in New York City, the chair massage also appeared to help with mental and emotional tension.

Studies show that a Chair Massage can relieve mental and physical fatigue, increase work performance, reduce stress, increase circulation, and enhance general well being.
