BODY MASSAGE

Full or part body massages can be undertaken depending on your needs.  It can be defined as the systematic and manual manipulation of the soft tissues of the body in order to promote health and well-being.  It is an ancient art that has been practised and performed for many thousands of years – well before the advent of medicine or surgery.

INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE

This therapy has been used for thousands of years – the Egyptians were the first pharmacists making tablets and preserving bodies.  The Chinese, Indians and Greeks have used it too.

EXFOLIATION

The skin – the importance of keeping your skin healthy can’t be over emphasised.  It is the body’s first defence against disease and infection, and it protects your internal organs from injuries.  It is, in fact, the largest organ in the body.  The skin helps regulate body temperature and prevents excess fluid loss, and it also helps your body remove excess water and salt.  Hence the necessity to look after your skin, one method being exfoliation:

• Cells turnover at a faster rate providing a healthier glow or look to the skin
• Creates polished skin, helps the lustre of the skin
• Promotes product penetration eg moisturiser, essential oils

HOT STONE MASSAGE

The word Reiki means ‘universal life energy’.  It is a natural and simple method of hands-on healing which transfers energy from the Reiki Practitioner to the client.  Reiki is a holistic therapy in that it works on the mind, body and spirit by stimulating the body’s own natural healing capacity.  It is a way of channelling energy positively in order to promote health and to help restore a sense of physical and emotional balance.

COLOUR THERAPY

Many of our healing needs can be met by the use of colour to bring about harmony and balance within the body.  The invisible vibrations of colour can either relax or stimulate us according to the colours chosen for healing.  Even blind people can develop a sense of colour, by allowing the fingers to pick up the vibrational energy of different colours.
