Offering herbal remedies for everything ranging from a bruised leg to flu, this place is a welcome tonic to the "take this pill and it'll all be fine" approach of your local GP. In addition to the herbal stuff, you can also get a wide range of massages in this place, from relaxing and calming treatments to deep tissue sports orientated ones. Got one of Dem sports massages a few years ago after caputing my shoulder via a combination of roof work and mountain bike madness. The results were nothing short of amazing. This place also does some interesting herbal and natural products ranging from lip bam to toothpaste and deodorants. It also does candles and other nice smelling type items. A visit here always leaves you feeling a little more refreshed than you were when you walked in. Add this to the friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff and you have an ideal experience awaiting you

I was in pain again. My darn shoulder & neck playing up and giving me gip (as my Mum would say). I…read moreknow when it gets to this stage rather than swally a load of painkillers all the time what I really need is a GOOD massage. The kind that makes you go 'Ah yeeeaaaaaaaah....' I usually go to Karada Massage in High Street but I fear they may have closed down :( I could not access their website or phone them. *sob* So I needed a back up fast. I read on this here Yelp that WH were pretty good & also a friend of mine recommended them. I was so in need of relief (steady!) I phoned & made an appointment for that day. Got one luckily no bother. Brilliant. I wasn't sure exactly what type of massage to get (as they really do so many various kinds) so I explained to the nice lady on the phone & she said I could discuss my requirements on arrival with my therapist. My therapist was Isabel and she was very nice indeed. I explained to her my pain & she asked a few (relevant) questions & then said she would cater the massage to my needs ~ this being a back, shoulder, neck & face/head massage. Lovely job. I could not wait. My massage was for an hour and it was so so good. A wee bit sore at times but it was necessary as I was really knotted up & as tense as a very tense thing (apparently). She was very thorough and she did indeed massage all parts necessary, including my face which was so nice BUT as I didn't know I was getting a facial I had on my usual make-up which by the end of the massage, of course, ended up smudged all over my face! Ha ha! Oh dear...luckily they have a wee bathroom (with lovely smelling hand soap!) you can 'fix' yourself in after or else I would've scared the people of Woodlands with my mental clown face. Again. Doh. My particular massage treatment was £40 which you might think is a bit steep but for how much it helped me & how well it was catered to my needs I thought it was fair. Their website has a handy price-list so you can check how much your treatment should be before you go and check at what days/times they are available. Isabel recommended I come again in 2 weeks time (Yes, it was THAT bad!) and I did and again it was brilliant. She suggested monthly massages to me & I am actually really up for it as I am one of these people that really needs a good massage regularly. If only I was richer! Another really good thing about WH is that they stay open late on a Wednesday (and other evenings too), until 8pm I believe. This is great if you work 9-5pm. I also like the wee shop they have in here ~ lots of vitamins & herbal treatments/goodies, food/snack things & other stuffs. I just love the smell of this place as soon as you walk in...Mmmm! Herbs!

Despite being a fan of oriental health care, I find the Chinese Medicine Centre a little too…read moreserious. The outside boasts that it can cure most problems- at least, most of the problems I either have or worry about- and the professionalism of the staff makes this a real different experience from my usual massage at a beauty centre session. The truth is, I don't really understand how it works, and I am slightly suspicious because of that. I am also very bad at keeping up regimes, as they suggest, and only made a single visit. I would say that the attention given to me was positive and they are obviously competent, but this is only really a good resource for people who are already au fait with the various Chinese systems and have confidence in them.

I went in for treatment for a trapped nerve in my arm. After three treatments with needles, plus…read moremassage with a special oil blend, the problem was totally sorted out. Treatments were weekly over three weeks. After an initial consultation, I was taken to a treatment room. I hopped up on the treatment table and relaxed while the needles were placed in my arm, neck and back. A heat lamp was placed nearby, and the doctor came in to adjust the needles a few times over about 40 minutes. The needles were then removed, and a quick massage with a glass cup or plastic tool was done with an oil that smelled like Wintogreen Lifesavers. The needles don't hurt, but the massage was a bit painful. It's over quickly and I felt much better after. It's been over a month since my last treatment and it's still fine - no pain in my arm or fingers. Highly recommend!

This is my local branch of the Ming Chen Clinics and the only one I've been in to date. Therefore,…read morethis review will be solely on my experiences here as opposed to other branches. Although, I am keen to see how the one on Woodlands Road measures up in comparison. Anyway, this is an acupuncture and herbalist clinic. It offers a range of treatments such as: acupuncture (obviously), Chinese herbal remedies, tui na (Chinese massage), reiki and spiritual medium services. They also claim to be able to help treat a range of problems like anxiety, asthma, depression, insomnia, stress and 'Women & Men's Problems'. I really do love this last one, but am a little confused as to what it means. Different problems to do with male and female genitalia? Sex problems between couples? Or just couple counselling sessions? Or do I just have a dirty, dirty mind?? Nonetheless, this is a good sized clinic which offers help with almost anything. I've been in here to have a few massages and have enjoyed them for a decent price. I have a friend who came here for reiki and really enjoyed it until she managed to creep herself out something awful. There's some big story about feeling more than two hands on her and how this was proof of spiritual guardians or something. I've also heard of a few friends coming here to help them stop smoking. Whatever, happened it actually seemed to work as well. Though, only for around three days to a week. Thus, I would say that the actual treatments and remedies can be very hit and miss depending on what they are and, of course, on what YOU expect them to do. However, in general terms it is a nice, clean, tidy clinic that offers a wide range of treatments and remedies. The staff are friendly and the prices decent. Worth a go, if there's something that catches your eye and you're not expecting miracle cures.

I've been meaning to get a massage for at least 18 months (coincidentally, the same amount of time…read moreI took up roller derby and started getting battered about!). I finally booked in for one online after seeing Elizabeth tweeting. I like people who are good at social media, and this (and her user friendly, helpful website) were the reason I chose her. I actually forgot to check where she was based until the morning. I knew it was the city centre but hadn't checked where! Thankfully she is right near Buchanan Street underground/Queen Street station so it was super easy to get to. It's easy to find too, it's right near the Carlton George and has good signage. Entering the Glasgow Treatment Rooms, you get the smell of a massage place - I think they must all use the same candles! You press the buzzer for the person you're seeing and take a seat. She popped out pretty quickly to say hello, and gave me a sheet to fill out with questions about allergies etc. Not long after I was shown into the massage room. The room was spacious and warm and looked really comfy. Just one massage table in the middle of the room with a couple of seats for your pre-massage chat. She went through a few questions about whether I had any particular pain to address and what my preference was. She was super friendly, helpful and bubbly so I was pretty relaxed. I didn't tell her at the time but I can get quite uncomfortable getting massages if I don't feel happy with the person, meaning I end up being really tense, but thankfully there was none of that here! I got a full body massage, and she focused on my legs (I get a lot of quad tightness from roller derby) as well as my neck and shoulders (hunching while working on the laptop!). It was relaxing and I felt comfortable at all stages, she would explain why she was massaging my glutes (hamstring goes all the way up there) and had good chat, but not too much chat that I couldn't relax! She also managed to unpop (not a medical term) the knot I've had in my shoulder which was an awesome feeling. Afterwards she had a chat about areas of concern - unsurprisingly, my quads and hips from skating. I've also been told this about a physio so I wasn't surprised! I'm planning another visit at the end of the month where she is going to be a bit more heavy handed on me! I felt super relaxed and a lot looser afterwards, and because she used cream rather than oil, I didn't feel greasy all day. For a 1 hour massage it was £40 which I think is great value. Importantly, she does't have card facilities so make sure you have cash.
