Therapies

What are the different treatments and what happens during a session?

Reflexology - During a Reflexology treatment you will be gently reclined in my super-comfy chair with your legs and feet raised. As the weather is now getting colder you will also be offered a warm blanket to snuggle under. Your feet will be cleansed and then a nourishing balm will be applied. The actual treamtment itself is a special pressure massage to the feet;it is very similar to what we know as traditional massage but it concentrates on specific areas of the feet, which correspond to all the different areas of the body. It aims to stimulate the body's own natural healing mecanisms and it is also deeply relaxing - most people do drift off during a treatment.

 Reiki - This is an ancient Japanese form of hands on healing. It is also known as "Life Force Energy" as it helps the body to heal and re-balance. The effects of Reiki often enduce deep relaxation, which is why I incorporate Reiki into each of my treatments. I personally believe that Reiki is most effective when combined with either Reflexology or Indian Head massage.

Indian Head Massage - This is a very popular massage and especially good as a real pampering treat and fabulous to relieve muscular tension and stress. It originates in India, as the name suggests and it is a traditional Ayurvedic system of healing. You will find this being done in barber shops in India and it is done widely in homes too - passed down from generation to generation. Treatment concentrates on massage with or without oil to the head, neck, shoulders and face. I personally prefer to use a nourishing oil or balm during the treatment as I find it gives a much more enjoyable treatment. I always ask that you bring a strappy top with you to wear during a treatment - this is much more comortable for you.
