Therapies
The BodyTalk System
Using BodyTalk the body is encouraged to heal in order of priority, sometimes you’ll get results right away and sometimes deeper healing is taking place, so noticeable results may take a few more sessions. A session is simple, you lie fully clothed on a massage couch (or can sit comfortably in a chair) whilst a muscle test of ‘yes’ ‘no’ responses is obtained using your arm. The resulting information is then tapped gently on the brain to balance the body and on the heart to store the information.
Aromatherapy Massage
Massage, using the natural medicinal properties of essential oils specifically chosen for each individual, together with the nurturing power of touch, combine to form a potent healing treatment. Aromatherapy massage can be relaxing or energizing, soothing the nervous system or boosting the blood and lymphatic systems to improve physical and mental functions. The combination of essential oils and massage helps to ease pain and tension from tense or overworked muscles and lift the spirits.
Swedish Massage
Massage has been used for thousands of years and our holistic approach can improve the body’s circulation, reduce stiffness, and ease joint pain, as well as being a great tonic for relieving stress. Holistic Massage treats each individual by systematically stroking, kneading and pressing the soft tissues of the entire body in order to induce a state of total relaxation. Oil (or your own creams if preferred) is used to soothe away stress and tension, alleviate headaches, back and joint pain and increase health and vitality.
Hot Stone Therapy
Hot Stone Therapy is a powerful massage using a blend of essential oils specifically chosen for each individual, together with the use of selected Basalt Stones. You will start this experience with a full body exfoliation, followed by a deep body, face and scalp massage. The application of the heat from the stones increases circulation and generates activity at various levels, boosting lymphatic flow and assisting in detoxifying the body and relieving tired, sore and aching muscles, resulting in a wonderful state of relaxation.
Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage tackles physical, mental and emotional effects of stress in a very effective way. The face and scalp have many nerve endings, making them receptive to the power of touch, especially when you are feeling stressed or angry as tension accumulates and can result in a stiff neck, shoulders or eye strain and, in some cases, hair loss.
Eastern Facial Massage
This Facial Massage acts like a natural, non-invasive face-lift that can help to slow down the ageing process, leaving you looking more youthful. A combination of techniques are used, involving the energy channels of meridians, lymphatic drainage and acupressure points applied to the facial muscles – there are more than 90 muscles in the face alone! Eastern Facial Massage releases deep tensions and toxins, wrinkles seem reduced and the skin appears rejuvenated.
Body Wrap
Body Wrap purifies and detoxifies problem areas using plant extracts from Aloe Vera, increasing the natural elasticity to hold the new sculptured shape, by using the wrapping process. This inch-loss treatment is an excellent boost if you have been dieting as it has the added benefit of tightening the skin and helping to reduce cellulite, leaving the skin feeling very clean and soft.
Reiki
The traditional Usui Reiki treatment of hands-on healing technique is thousands of years old and uses the life force that flows within the physical body’s meridians/chakras, helping to nourish organs and cells of the body, supporting their vital functions. Every-day stress can disrupt this life force and may result in dis-ease within the body. The flow of Reiki charges them with positive energy, causing the negative energy to break up and fall away.
Reflexology
The feet are like a map to the rest of the body and the organs, endocrines and spinal areas all relate to specific areas found on the soles, top and sides of the feet. Massaging these areas highlights where there may be an imbalance and working on these areas can then return the body to good working order. The hands can also be mapped to areas of the body (as can the ears!) and worked in a similar way.
Luxury Pedicure
The feet mirror what is happening to the rest of your body, but are frequently open to abuse. You will start with a warm soak in an aromatherapy foot bath, followed by dry skin and excess cuticle removal. After trimming the nails the feet are then wrapped in deeply penetrating hot wax that conditions, nourishes and softens the feet. After removal of the wax you will be given a relaxing lower leg and foot massage with nourishing creams to help ease tension and boost circulation, leaving you feeling like you are walking on air!
Thermal Auricular Therapy (Hopi Ear Candles)
Thermal Auricular Therapy has a massage-like effect on the eardrum that induces a pleasant feeling warmth and ease of pressure in the ears, forehead and sinuses, helping to ease compacted ear wax, snoring, tinnitus, sinusitis, rhinitis, glue ear, stress, ear-ache, frequent air travel, headache and many more. The biosun candles used hold the prestigious CE mark for medical devices. A course of 3 treatments is recommended, each 3 to 7 days apart.
