Many people believe aromatherapy is simply a soothing massage using lovely scents, but there’s much more to it than that. Aromatherapy is the therapeutic use of concentrated plant essences (essential oils) to relieve stress, enhance health and well-being, prevent problems and support the healing process.
Each essential oil has distinct therapeutic properties that can improve the body’s natural functioning and so help to prevent disease. Enhancing the health of both mind and body, they have been shown through research to possess stimulant, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory and relaxant properties, among others.
Through the use of a variety of special techniques the massage can be developed for the individual. It can be comforting and soothing or stimulating and energising, helping to let go of toxins from the body. You will leave the table feeling lighter and rejuvenated.
Massage improves circulation of blood flow around the body, bringing fresh oxygen to body tissues. This brings vital nutrients to the tissue and can assist in the elimination of waste products from the area. This can then speed healing after injury, and enhance recovery from disease. This will also improve the structure and look of the muscles and skin.
Swedish massage helps to alleviate the build up of stress and tension in the muscles from every day use. It uses massage techniques specifically aimed to relax your muscles as the main purposes are to increase oxygen flow to the muscles and to aid the body in the removal of built up toxins. Swedish massage tends to be a much deeper massage than the Aromatherapy so it is also suited to sports people. Even though the pressure caused by Swedish full body massage is deep it will not cause any pain and will only be soothing on your body.
We use soft relaxing background music to help draw the mind and body into a completely relaxed state.
Aromatherapy oil will help to nourish your skin and aid massage movement. Massage may be given to any one part of the body at one time (back, head, neck and shoulders, hands, legs, feet), although a full body massage will benefit the entire body, giving maximum results for good health. After the massage follow up and after care advice is given. General lifestyle advice will also be given related to your individual needs, including some dietary advice and muscle stretching if appropriate.
This massage uses Swedish massage techniques to specifically target the back, neck and shoulders to breakdown the build up of lactic acid which is the cause of tension commonly found in these areas. Aromatherapy oil will be used to help nourish your skin as well as ease the massage. There are some contra-indications to massage, however, these will be noted and discussed if found at the initial consultation. After the massage, follow up and after care advice is given. General lifestyle advice will also be given related to your individual needs, including some dietary advice and muscle stretching if appropriate.
This massage is fabulous for those who want to specifically target problem tension areas.
Practised by the Indians for thousands of years, this treatment is one of the most popular holistic therapies. Indian head massage works on both the physical and mental levels, concentrating on the areas most vulnerable to stress; back neck, shoulders, head and scalp.
This treatment can be performed using a soothing blend of essential oils to promote relaxation and enhance the overall effects or without oil if you prefer. We use hands, fingers and thumbs to stimulate vital pulse points to promote lymphatic-circulation and respiratory systems to sooth both physical and emotional tracts.
This is a very relaxing treatment. Great for those who suffer from sinus problems, headaches, stiff back, shoulders and neck. Also good for those who are behind the wheel for many hours or spend a lot of time working at a computer.
We will complete a thorough medical history (if this is your first appointment) to assess your needs and establish any issues that might be inhibiting your health. This normally takes between 15-20 minutes. Once this is completed we are ready to start your treatment. The treatment itself is held in a warm, comfortable room with you sat upright in a chair, (with or without oils) and through clothing if preferred.
An invigorating massage to the upper back, shoulders, arms, neck, head and scalp is carried out to release and relieve stress and tension in those areas most susceptible to it. A light, pressure point facial massage completes the treatment to leave you floating on cloud nine.
