SWEDISH BODY MASSAGE

Swedish body massage stimulates the cardiovascular and lymphatic system to improve circulation and help eliminate toxins from the body.  It improves muscle tone, energizes the nervous system and relieves tension and stress.  It can be invigorating; lots of "hacking" and "kneading" or gentle and relaxing, either way it is always tailored to meet the client's individual needs.

AROMATHERAPY MASSAGE

Aromatherapy massage is a slow, deep and totally relaxing, therapeutic treatment using essential oils to encourage the body's own innate healing.  With their varying properties, essential oils can help ease physical and psychological conditions by uplifting, relaxing, energizing, invigorating, calming and stimulating mind and body.  The Greek physician and philosopher Hippocrates said "everyone should  have an aromatherapy massage every day" A WISE MAN INDEED

INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE

Indian Head Massage is an ancient art.  Its origins lie in the traditional Indian system of Ayurveda, the most ancient form of healing, whose texts, which date back nearly 4000 years, detail the importance of massage.  Ayur means "life" and Veda means "knowledge".  Indian Head massage, therefore, is based on the holistic principal of balancing body,mind and spirit to promote health, longevity and well being.  It is usually performed in a seated position but can be adapted if the client would prefer to lie down.  It is a very intense massage incorporating neck and shoulders as well as the head for an all round STRESS BUSTING EXPERIENCE

£30.00  (45 mins)

HOPI EAR CANDLING (Thermal Auricular Therapy)

A Hopi Ear Candling treatment can be helpful for easing sinusitis, stress, headaches, earache, Bell's Palsy and is an excellent pre-flight treatment to help alleviate ear popping.  The candle is lit and placed gently into the ear and held in place by the therapist throughout the treatment.  As the candle slowly burns in on itself it creates a gentle suction action, which in turn creates a massaging like effect on the eardrum.  The sound of the candle is often described as soothing and relaxing.  Once both ears have been treated the candling is followed by a facial massage designed to help drain the sinuses and a neck shoulder and scalp massage to promote deep relaxation.
I use Biosun candles as these have an internal filter and carry the European Safety Standard Symbol.  Ear Candling is NOT a medical treatment and will not  be performed on anyone with a perforated eardrum, grommets, an ear infection or if the ears have been syringed or candled 48 hours prior to treatment

REIKI

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning Spiritual (Rei) Energy (Ki). Reiki is best described as a Japanese relaxation technique that supports the body's own natural healing process.  The client lies fully clothed upon the therapists couch and Reiki is channelled via the therapists hands onto the clients body.  The client may feel this energy as heat, cold or a tingling sensation.  Reiki works by balancing the body and can enhance personal growth, develops positive attitude, increases energy, release stress and help promote healing of the mind, body and spirit. The energy does not come from the therapist but is drawn by the client - the therapist is simply a facilitator. The client takes what he or she needs at that moment in time.

HOLISTIC FACIAL

“Time is a great healer but a lousy beautician”...
not sure who said it but ooch - doesn’t the truth hurt! Treating yourself to a regular Holistic Facial cannot turn the clock back but can help you to maintain those youthful looks and because it is such a soothing treatment it can also ease tension and stress which can be a major factor in the aging process. The facial starts with a double cleanse to give the face a fresh clean feel. A toner is then used to help close up the pores.  Essential oils are then massaged into the skin.The massage includes arms, neck, and shoulders followed by meridian pressure point massage on the face and finishes with a deeply relaxing scalp massage. The oil is then gently removed and the face is moisturised.
This is one of my most popular treatment.

REFLEX ZONE THERAPY


The soles of the feet mirror the body and by working on the reflexes of the feet, Reflex Zone Therapy stimulates the body's own potential to heal itself both physically and emotionally.  It dates back to the Ancient Egyptians and is similar to Reflexology in so much as all the organs, bones and systems of the body are stimulated during a treatment.  This is a wonderfully relaxing treatment and starts with a foot massage to relax the feet, followed by acupressure to the soles and tops of the feet which stimulates the reflected systems and organs of the body.  The treatment is rounded off with a relaxing foot and lower leg massage which leaves you feeling refreshed and "walking on air"

£30.00 (60 mins)


Th HOT STONE MASSAGE THERAPY

Peruvian Basalt Stones, specially selected for their heat retaining properties and purity are warmed in a temperature regulated heater and once at the correct temperature some are placed upon the body whilst others are used, in conjunction with essential oils, in hands on massage. As the warmth of the stones cocoon you and the heat permeates through your body you feel your muscles melt and your worries and concerns simply evaporate as you lose yourself in this amazing treatment.

The effects on the physical body of the warm stones is far greater than manual massage.The application of heat will stimulate the system yet create a state of calm sedation. It has been said that one stroke with a warm stone is equivalent to up to 10 strokes with the hand.

THAI FOOT MASSAGE


The massage starts with the cleansing of the feet and hands with hot towels and continues with light pressure from the giver’s fingers, hands and a traditional wooden stick. All parts of the foot, lower legs and the hands are included in the treatment and involves hands on stretching, massage, stimulating reflex points and follows the Thai energy lines (Sen). It has elements of Shiatsu, Reflexology, Chinese massage and Yoga incorporated into the massage itself. It is said to stimulate the activity of internal organs and thus is hugely beneficial for optimum internal health. It is still taught by Buddhist monks in the temples of Thailand. There are zones and reflex areas in the feet which correspond to all glands, organs, parts and systems of the body. The therapist assists the body through applied pressure which stimulates all the reflexes, nerve connections and energy pathways that extend from the feet to the rest of the body balancing the body, mind and spirit. Thai Foot Massage could help to improve the functions within the body systems for health promotion by stimulating the circulatory systems of blood and lymph. It may also relieve some problems such as constipation, asthma, gall bladder problems, cystitis, headache, renal disease, migraine, sinusitis and stress

FACIAL REJUVENATION MASSAGE

Facial Rejuvination Massage is often referred to as “The Non-Surgical Face Lift” or “The Indian Facial ” Massage and works on a physiological and emotional level to help make the skin look and feel “uplifted”

Most of the skin is made up of connective tissue, which is formed from fibres such as collagen and elastin. These fibres weave together to form a web like structure. In younger skins, these fibres slide past each other freely, giving suppleness and flexibility but over time the fibres begin to lock together so that the skin loses much of its mobility. The Facial Massage help to restore skin suppleness by toning collagen and elastin fibres, gently allowing the connective tissue to regain its freedom of movement and elasticity. Acupressure is used to stimulate the meridians and gentle massage techniques work on the muscles to help firm, lift and “plump up” the face.


Facial Massage calms and sooths the nervous system, inducing relaxation and positive emotions. If you feel good, it will always show in your face.

A Facial Rejuvenation Massage cannot turn back the clock nor can it iron out your wrinkles completely, remove the bags from under your eyes or get rid of your double chin (only radical, expensive and painful surgery can do that) but what it can do is give your face a gentle boost making you feel better and as a consequence, look better.

NO HANDS MASSAGE ® Transforming Touch Basic


It’s called NO HANDS® because the massage is carried out using the forearms and where as in swedish massage the power comes from the upper body, in NO HANDS®, the power comes from the hips enabling the practitioner to work with the whole of her body weight behind each stroke. This makes it a very deep and powerful massage. NO HANDS® stands for excellence in the quality and power of the touch that you receive. There is nothing like it anywhere else in the world. This trademark guarantees the purity of tradition. It means that I have been trained to a highest standard by the founder of NO HANDS®, Gerry Pyves. This is unique in the UK and ensures that the quality of the approach is preserved completely.
 

I LOVE this massage, it’s wonderful to give, beautiful to watch and fantastic to receive.

BODY BRUSHING AND EXFOLIATING


The skin is the largest organ of the body and also the BIGGEST eliminator of waste! We are constantly shedding skin cells (up to 90% of household dust is skin!) so body brushing will help remove dead skin cells and also help to speed up the body's natural process of detoxification as the brush strokes are always directed towards the heart following the lymphatic flow. Cellulite can also be treated with a special brush that helps to break down fatty tissue and aids lymphatic drainage. To reinforce the effects of body brushing and achieve a really soft, healthy looking skin, exfoliation is the key. It sloughs off dead skin cells that make the skin look dull and lifeless and prepares the skin for moisturising, enabling better absorption. This is important as moisturising helps the skin to remain supple, to support it’s lipid structure and provide protection. Massaging in body care products will increase circulation, hydrate the skin and help with the firmness of the skin.

ON SITE CHAIR MASSAGE


Chair massage is perfect for those who want a massage but find the idea of removing their clothes a frightening prospect! The massage is done over clothes, which act as the lubricant so there is no need to use oils. The whole of the back, shoulders, neck, arms and head are included in this massage. Ideal for people who find it difficult to lie down but who would really benefit from massage. Chair massage is ideal in a work environment or if you require massage at any corporate event or show as I only require a small area in which to work and clients remain fully clothed.
