For a happy, healthy workforce
Who we are
The Slow Collective is a small team of expert massage therapists based in London with a variety of backgrounds and specialities. We are all fully qualified and fully insured. We primarily operate in a corporate environment but are also available for away days, parties, hen dos etc - we cater to meet your needs.
What we do
Depending on the size of your company, one or a number of us come to your premises and provide treatments lasting up to twenty minutes, over clothes, in our ergonomic on-site massage chairs. This can take place in any space of your choosing. The entire process will be tailored to your needs, but to give you some idea: the average booking is three hours long and involves two therapists; that works out at 24 treatments at fifteen minutes each. We bring all the equipment we need and leave the place as we found it.
The Benefits
The average adult in this country now spends 8 hours per day at a desk for 30 years of their life. We are not built for this. The impact on our cervical spine and shoulders, as well as wrists (a common site of repetitive strain injury), not to mention our mental health, is well-documented. For those of us who work on our feet, the physical toll manifests in different ways.
An office massage lasting as little as 15 minutes can improve posture, significantly alleviate physical and mental fatigue, lower blood pressure, reduce anxiety and boost the immune system.

By offering this service, your company is caring for its people. This leads to improved morale, cooperation and productivity as well as reduced absenteeism. We encourage you not to view our treatments as an occasional treat, but rather as a means of creating and sustaining a healthy, happy and productive workforce.

FAQ
Will anyone have to take their clothes off?
No - come as you are. Jackets & jewellery may be removed but it's by no means compulsory..
Will you use oils?
Nope, not unless requested.
What if I'm feeling peaky?
There you have us. I'm afraid that if you're showing any sign of infection (even a common cold) it's best we don't go near you. Massages are detoxifying and thus can (albeit briefly) exacerbate these symptoms rather than relieve them. Similarly, any recent operations on the back, neck or shoulders rule you out. During pregnancy, we can offer hand or foot massages.
What about privacy?
It's up to you where the treatments take place - we can conduct them in a private meeting room or in an open plan/break-out area. We can even set up outdoors (weather depending).
It's also quick & easy to move our kit around if different employees have different needs.
Where do you operate?
We tend to keep things to within the M25, but drop us a line at enquiries@theslowco.com and we'll see what we can do. We may charge for travel costs if further afield.
Prices for one-off bookings
The below prices include VAT and cover one masseuse. We have a minimum two-hour call out time.
If your office is located outside Zone 3/London, the quote will increase slightly to cover transport costs.

TESTIMONIALS
92% of our clients have come back for more.
Here's what some of them have to say.
Soho Square Studios
We booked The Slow Co. as part of our Valentine's Day package for employees and clients. It was such a success - everyone absolutely loved it, 20 minutes of bliss! Imi was easy to deal with, swift with her communication and we've booked her again already
GDC Creative
The Slow Co. came for one session and I re-booked that same day. Wow they really know what they are doing - I couldn't believe how effective such a short massage could be and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any workplace.
Nicole Hartley Prod.
I booked Imi and her team as a surprise for my company's 1st anniversary and they were FANTASTIC. Friendly, efficient and effective.
My team was absolutely thrilled! Thank you :)
Imogen's fiancé
I have lost count of how many massages I've had from Imogen.
They are so good that I'm marrying her in July.

Imogen (Founder)
"It is a uniquely intimate and privileged experiences to give a massage - in as little as 15 minutes, you ease whatever burden someone carries with them that day. I am lucky to do a job in which I leave people happier than I found them. It's cheesy, but true."
James
"As a qualified holistic and deep tissue massage therapist I like to keep things simple; providing a high quality massage treatment that will leave you feeling relaxed and reinvigorated to go back out into the world with an extra little boost."
Eli
“Coming from a corporate background myself, I know first-hand the physical and mental challenges that it presents - and what an impact massage can have. I love giving people a window to breathe and release, allowing them to return to work as their best selves."
PRIVATE TREATMENTS
Imogen also practises Swedish massage privately. She operates from her home in Highgate or she can bring her table to you.
