The Benefits and Effects of Massage

A massage treatment will have the following benefits and effects on your mind, body and soul:

• Promotes total relaxation and reduces stress and anxiety
• Relaxes the muscles and warms the tissues
• Improves the texture of your skin by increasing the supply of oxygen and nutrients, encouraging cell regeneration
• Increases and improves blood and lymph circulation, promoting the removal of toxins and waste products.

Regular treatments are recommended to acheive the full benefit of relaxation and stress reduction.

Indian Head Massage

Indian Head Massage is a seated treatment, which can be carried out over clothes or unclothed, incorporating the upper back, arms, neck, shoulders, head and face. Using an aromatherapy oil blend, an Indian Head Massage will reduce stress, improve hair and scalp condition, increase energy levels, improve circulation and stimulate the circulatory and lymphatic systems to remove impurities and toxins. This treatment is particularly suitable if you work at a computer as the stresses put on the upper body can sometimes be quite painful.

Aromatherapy Massage

An aromatherapy massage is a wonderful, gentle and relaxing full body treatment, whereby essential oils are carefully massaged onto your skin, releasing stress and increasing your sense of well-being. Each aromatherapy oil has its own therapeutic properties and a blend will be created to suit your own needs.

Crystal Therapy

Crystal therapy can be traced back as far as Egyptian times. Each crystal is believed to have its own therapeutic properties which can assist in rebalancing the body and the chakra system. During this treatment, you lie fully clothed on the couch and crystals are placed around and on the body. Using crystals and a pendulum, blockages may be removed from the body and your chakras are cleansed and energised, resulting in a deep sense of relaxation and reducing stress levels. Crystals are selected intuitively to suit your individual needs and regular treatments are recommended to aid your body's healing process and promote a sense of well-being.  Different layouts may be used as a treatment programme develops.

Crystal Facial

This facial begins as for the beauty therapy facial, but I use soothing rose quartz and an aromatherapy oil blend to massage the face.

Angelite Back Treatment

A beautiful, pale blue crystal, Angelite is thought to bring inner peace and tranquility.  Lying fully clothed face down on the couch, a large crystal is gently massaged over the back to give a wonderful calming treatment.

Hopi Ear Candles

This non-invasive therapy may be effective in ear, nose and throat problems, helping with headaches, migraines, hay fever, sinusitis, tinitis and colds. It may help equalise ear pressure before or after flying. A gentle lymph drainage facial massage is included to stimulate lymph flow and increase blood circulation.

The burning ear candle creates a light suction action and the movement of the flame causes a vibration in the candle to generate a massaging effect on the ear drum and auditary canal. You will feel warmth and hear a crackling sound during the treatment.

It is recommended that you have a treatment once a month. However, if you suffer from conditions such as sinusitis or tinitis, more frequent treatments can be carried out until the condition stablises. If you suffer pain/popping when flying, a treatment 1 week and another 2 days before depature may be beneficial.
