​

Swedish massage is your standard massage treatment, it involves the manipulation of the soft tissue and muscles to cause a reaction to the body.

Massage is a "hands on" treatment in which your therapist will manipulate the muscles and other soft tissues of the body to improve health and well-being. Varieties of massage range from gentle stroking and kneading of muscles and other soft tissues to deeper manual techniques. Massage has been practised as a healing therapy for centuries in nearly every culture around the world. Although massage affects the body as a whole, it particularly influences the activity of the musculoskeletal, circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous systems.

Sports Massage.

​

The prime purpose of sports massage is to help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity. Where minor injuries and lesions occur, due to overexertion and/or overuse, massage can break them down quickly and effectively. Above all, it can help prevent those niggling injuries that so often get in the way of performance and achievement, whether one is an athlete, keep-fitter or a once a week jogger.

This treatment is not just for the sports person: anyone can benefit from sports massage, including people in physically demanding jobs and those not quite so obvious (occupational, emotional and postural stress may produce many similar characteristics to sports injuries).

Sports massage tends to be deeper and more intense. It is based on the various elements of Swedish massage and often incorporates a combination of other techniques involving stretching, compression, friction, toning, and trigger point response techniques similar to Acupressure and Shiatsu.

 

The benefits of Sports Massage are: -

• Stress relief.

• Reduction of muscle tension.

• Post event to prevent and reduce soreness.

• Pre event to provide greater circulation to muscles to prevent injury.

• Promote faster recovery from over training.

​

Aromatherapy Massage.

​

Aromatherapy uses the purest plant essence in the form of organic essential oils, which are extracts from various parts of plants, fruits, flowers, bark, roots, or resin. Essential oils contain dozens of powerful complex natural chemicals that have beneficial properties. Due to the diversity of essential oils and their individual therapeutic properties, the range of benefits and effects of Aromatherapy is wide ranging.

Once information has been gathered during consultation your Aromatherapist will select the appropriate essential oils for the maximum therapeutic benefit. The selected essential oils are blended with a carrier/base massage oil to create a unique mix for each client’s individual needs. This Aromatherapy blend is usually applied to the skin with traditional body massage.

Aromatherapy treatments have both physiological and psychological effects. The combination of massage and the medicinal and therapeutic qualities of the essential oils (molecules both inhaled [aroma] and absorbed through the skin) can soothe, revitalize, uplift the spirit, encourage positive thinking and boost the immune system enabling the body to heal itself.

The benefits of Aromatherapy are different depending on what essential oils have used but also include the benefits similar to Swedish or Sports Massage.

Hopi Ear Candle Therapy.

​

Also known as Thermal Auricular Therapy, Hopi ear candling has been used for thousands of years. Originally used by the Hopi Tribe of Arizona, who still use and manufacture the candles, it is also thought that the Ancient Greeks and Romans also used this type of thermal therapy. The candles are completely natural and are made from a recipe of herbs and bees wax and gently placed in to the ear. Once lit the candle creates a vacuum within the inner ear allowing the healing and soothing properties of the herbs to penetrate the inner ear. This treatment is unsuitable if you have a perforated ear drum, ear infection or have grommets. Hopi Ear Candling is a very relaxing treatment, once both ears have been done the treatment ends with a facial massage to help remove any toxins and improve lymphatic drainage.

• Help with sinus problems and blocked ears.

• Stress, anxiety and depression.

It can be used alone or with other treatments to help restore physical and emotional balance in the body.

After consultation crystals will be placed on or around your body. The crystals will be left in place while you relax and breathe gently. You may feel a tingling sensation, your body may jerk as it releases patterns held in your muscles, you may even laugh or cry as repressed emotions are let go, or you may feel nothing at all except a sense of peace and pleasurable relaxation suffusing your body. The therapist may gently add or remove crystals during the session. When the session is over, the crystals will be removed.

• Balancing. Illness reduction.

• Stress. Anxiety. Depression.

• Aches and pains. Medical conditions.
