SERVICES
REMEDIAL & SPORTS MASSAGE employs a variety of techniques to relieve muscular and fascia restriction and discomfort. These massages will address the warning signs such as tightness, soreness and stiffness, which can be caused by injury, faulty posture or when the body has lost its ability to distribute the stresses incurred in everyday living. Remedial and sports massage can be a way of preparing for sporting activity, long distance travel, or simply as a way of unwinding after meeting a deadline at work, restoring the natural equilibrium in the muscular system.
Simply relaxing SWEEDISH MASSAGE uses gentle strokes to calm the nervous system, alleviating tension and anxiety and providing relief from stress related conditions. Swedish massage pampers the mind and the body, even when there may not be any particular need in mind, using some basic essential oils in a warm environment.
SHIATSU is a healing form of massage that facilitates the flow of energy within the body. Deep but gentle pressure is applied with fingers, thumbs, elbows & feet to points along your energy pathways (or meridians). These meridians relate to major organs in the body and Shiatsu activates and enhances their function. The Shiatsu tradition seeks to reintegrate the mind and body with nature’s life force.
* Undressing during the session is not necessary.
HOLISTIC PULSING is a deeply healing form of treatment, which is also enjoyable. Holistic Pulsing is extremely beneficial for emotional healing and acute problems such as chronic anxiety or fatigue. It is also used to treat physical discomfort arising from stress, injury, or age related conditions. Children respond well to holistic pulsing with ease and speed. It is also excellent during pregnancy, providing a treat for the mother and a positive and nurturing stimulation for the baby.
During the session, the therapist applies a constant rocking motion to different parts of the body, providing a nurturing and safe environment to let gentleness and comfort “sneak in” and begin to heal those places blocked by pain.
* Undressing during the session is not necessary.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE - The lymphatic system is a vital part of our body’s healing, cleansing and regenerative process. Unlike the cardio vascular system, the lymphatic system does not rely on a pump. Rather, it relies on muscular activity to function. Lymphatic Drainage focuses on the fluid in the body and requires only gentle pressure to stimulate the lymph flow and assist in the removal of wastes & toxins from the body.
Lymphatic Drainage can be a treatment in itself or incorporated into another massage treatment of your choice.
Massage is more than just mere relaxation. It provides an effective way of detaching yourself from the demands of daily life. It allows you time to just receive and be with yourself, to unclench from stress and to let go of negative emotion. The resulting feeling of well-being can last well beyond the massage itself. And of course massage can relieve muscle tension and improve blood & lymphatic flow, thereby assisting the immune system and boosting vitality, and physical & emotional balance.
Aches and stiffness are often signs from our body, that it needs attention. A regular massage helps our body and its systems to function like an efficient machine, while encouraging deep inner peace and tranquillity.
