Detoxing Foot Spa - ION Spa
During our normal day to day activities, our bodies are exposed to harmful toxins which are everywhere in our environment. From tobacco smoke, alcohol, food additives & pesticides, to heavy metals & industrial pollutants, our bodies absorb these toxins which prevent us from functioning at our best.
Many of us do not have time to do a Detoxing Program planning foods or sticking to the diets, so I wanted to find a way to help my clients Feel Great on the inside without taking to much time out of your hectic schedule.
Detox Foot Spa treatment can re-balance & re-energize your bio-energy through your feet. Although your bodies detoxify naturally everyday the problem is that most of us lead such busy lives that it makes it very difficult for our bodies to eliminate toxins completely. If these toxins cannot be removed they simply build up in our systems and our bodies cope less & as a result sometimes our bodies become unwell.
eg. (Muscular Aches & Pains.)
No Tablets, No Diets Detox & Feel Great through your feet in just 30 minutes.- Enhance Mind & Body Wellbeing
- Natural & Powerful
- Invigorating Power of Negative Ions
- So many hidden Benefits
- See & Feel the results for yourself
The Zen Chi Massager
is also another new addition to our clinic which can be included in massage treatments & they are also available to buy for the benefits to use daily in the convenience of your own home.
The Zen Chi machine’s rhythmic motion is core driven, producing a metrical displacement which sends a balanced energy wave through the body. This unique wave-like motion replicates exercise and promotes the flow of blood to capillary banks in all extremities of the body, restoring to areas that may have suffered poor circulation.
Body detoxification is improved via enhanced lymphatic circulation and abdominal persistence (involuntary digestive tract muscles), which results in a higher metabolic rate.
These boosts to the anatomical system will assist to relieve the symptoms of:- Lethargy
- Digestion imbalance
- Insomnia
- Weight problems
- Stress and tension
- Aches and pains
- Arthritic pain
- Lack of exercise
- Poor posture
15 minutes on the Zen Chi Exerciser machine is equivalent to walking 4.5 kilometer
Zen Chi Aerobic Massager
Time out
In our busy schedules, taking time out is crucial in order to maintain health & energy levels. Whether it be exercise, meditation or simply eating correctly, we must do something. Time restraints often make these routines difficult to adhere to, Zen Chi is able to solve this difficulty. All it takes is fifteen minutes morning & night to gain the recommended thirty minutes of daily exercise, any additional from of exercise is an extra-added bonus!
Chi Principle
Western health practitioners are now recognizing the Eastern theories that chi (life force energy) may be the key to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. It is noted that this energy flows through channels in all living entities. Acupressure & other forms of massage invigorate the flow of chi, via stimulating meridians & acupressure points that trigger nerve impulses & restore and equal flow of chi, in turn balancing the whole body..
The beneficial effects of chi stimulating exercise usually related to tai chi, yoga & other strict disciplines is now within reach. The Zen Chi aerobic massager combines modern technologies with the essential principles to produce an outstanding, beneficial passive exercise & massaging unit.
Operating Principle
Elevation of the feet is a proven technique for relieving the symptoms of painful ailments such as fluid retention, poor circulation, varicose veins & the list continues. Combine this with the Zen Chi energy stimulating principles & you will benefit immediately. Lying with your feet in the Zen Chi cradle, simply set the timer to the desired length of exercise, this will start the massaging action. Relax, clear your mind & you will feel your whole body rock from side to side as if you are being massaged all over. The Zen Chi’s rhythmic motion is core driven producing a metrical displacement, this sends a balanced energy wave through the body.

Dry Needling
Dry-needling is used in the treatment of musculo-skeletal disorders. Myofascial Dry Needling is a therapeutic technique involving the location of active or latent myofascial trigger points in skeletal muscle and its associated fascia. Once located, the practitioner uses a sterile needle to probe and de-activate each trigger point.
Dry Needling is a cost effective and efficient technique for the treatment of myofacial pain, injury and chronic muscular dysfunction. The approach is based on western anatomical and neuro-physiological principals, not to be confused with the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) technique of acupuncture.
Dry needling is incorporated within the massage treatment.

Lymphatic Drainage
Could you benefit from a boost in your immune system to feel more energetic, less fatigued and help detoxify your body. These are some benefits of Lymphatic drainage.
Slow light strokes are used to massage connective tissue, rather than deep tissue, below the skin to stimulate lymph fluid around your body. By circulating the fluid this technique decongests the lymph nodes, detoxifying the body and boosting the immune system.
Our lymph system is there to deal with daily toxins such as additives, preservatives and filters these for the body to eliminate. The lymph nodes contain white blood cells which are for fighting infection. They not only help to fight off infection but also will remember the toxins next time they appear.
This can be helpful for a range of symptoms:- Chronic Fatigue syndrome
- Low immunity
- Musculoskeletal pains & conditions
- Arthritis
- Dermatological conditions
- General Fatigue
- Sports injuries
- Weight gain
- Breast surgery
- Headaches or migraines
- Pre and Post surgery (to relax tissues and reduce healing time)
Relaxation Massage
Generally regarded as the most common form of relaxation massage, Swedish massage involves a combination of five basic strokes and concentrates on the muscles and connective tissues of the body for improved circulation, relaxation, pain relief, and overall health maintenance and well being.
Relaxation is the primary goal and in the hour consultation a full body massage is achieved. Our treatment rooms are warm and peaceful, with relaxing music and gentle lighting. It is the ideal setting to unwind and relax.
Reflexology
Reflexology is based on the principle that all areas and organs of your body are mapped onto your feet. Congestion or tension in a part of the foot may ‘mirror’ congestion or tension in the corresponding body part.
Similar to acupressure principles, reflexology works with the body’s energy flow to stimulate self-healing and maintain balance in physical function. The feet contain over 7000 nerve endings and over one quarter of the body’s bones. Our feet are also a great indicator of our toxicity levels, as toxins are stored in our lower extremities away from our major organs. Reflexology helps to break up toxins and encourages the body to release them.
Remedial Massage
Massage involves a manual application of pressure and movement to soft body tissues the skin, muscles, tendon, ligaments, and fascia (membranes surrounding muscles). Massage is believed to increase blood circulation and flow of lymph (fluid from body tissues that flows into the blood stream). It helps the body to heal itself by promoting the flow of blood and lymph, stimulating nerves, conditioning the skin, and stretching and loosening muscles to keep them elastic. Massage also has a positive psychological effect. When we are stressed, our breathing becomes more rapid and shallow, our hearts work harder and digestion slows down. Chronic stress can influence a number of illnesses including migraines, depression, and hypertension. Massage therapy can help to relieve tension and counteract the effects of stress on the body.
- Swedish Massage uses long strokes, kneading and pressing, friction, and drumming hand movements applied to the muscle groups to promote circulation and relaxation. This technique is often used for a full body massage.
- Deep Tissue Massage uses deep finger pressure and slow strokes on achy or tense areas of the body particularly useful for muscle spasm.
- Sports Massage uses massage to prepare the body before exercise or to help the body recover after exercise. It focuses on the use of massage to assist training, prevent injury, and treat sports injuries.
- Shiatsu/Acupressure Massage uses pressure at specific points on the body with the Eastern philosophical belief that this will enhance the energy flow through the body and restore balance.
- Neuromuscular Massage (also called Trigger-point Therapy) uses finger pressure on painful areas in muscles called trigger points.
- Reflexology uses pressure points in the hands and feet to affect reflexes in other parts of the body.

BENEFITS OF MASSAGE FOR SENIORS
Prevention, Self Help
Avoid Wrong Sitting
Massage therapy is particularly valuable for the aches & pains associated with growing older.
The benefits of massage for the elderly are numerous. Massage does the usual for seniors by encouraging circulation, decreasing muscular stiffness & helping to decrease inflammation that may rest in the joints. However, it also treats so many of the typical conditions that arise with age, such as muscular stiffness, arthritis, skin discolouration, muscle & bone deterioration, tendonitis, bursitis & respiratory problems such as asthma & emphysema.
Furthermore, the benefits of enjoying the simple pleasure of human touch & company for a brief period of time is priceless for many lonely & depressed seniors. Careful massage can help provide the elderly with symptomatic relief & enable seniors to extend the vitality in their lives.
Remedial, Sport & Deep Tissue Massage
This treatment focuses on reducing the build up to tight sore muscles in the back, neck, shoulders & joints. This chronic pain can be caused from example stress, sitting at a desk all day, sporting activities & is ideal for relieving headaches. These techniques focus on the deeper layers of muscle & Connective tissue.
It aims to release your aches & pains caused by the chronic build up of tension in the body. The massage uses deep slow strokes & pressure point therapy on the contracted areas, either following or going across the muscle fibres, tendons & fascia. Also helps to break up & eliminate scar tissue. Remedial & deep tissue massage focuses on more specific tension areas & the practitioners work at a pressure that is both therapeutic & yet comfortable for the client. After assessment the massage will be based on the problematic area. Assessment will take place for a range of motional movement. Stretches may be needed at the end of the massage.
Our treatment rooms are warm & peaceful, with relaxing music & gentle lighting. It is the ideal setting to unwind & relax. The client should notice considerable improvement within a day or two. Massage affects your whole being physically, emotionally & mentally. Regular massage reduces tension, improves blood circulation, & increases mobility & range of motion of the joints. It stimulates & soothes the nervous system, relieves aches & pains bringing about a sense of general relaxation.

Dorn Spinal Therapy
The Gentle Relative to Osteopathy and Chiropractic
A holistic, effective, safe and Non- Manipulative Therapy to correct mis-alignments in the Spine and Joints.
Dorn Spinal Therapy was developed in Germany back in the 70’s by Deiter Dom. It works by massaging the vertebra back into the original position.
It is completely safe, does not involve spinal manipulation or cracking and is very effective.
The corrections of joint or spinal cord mis-alignments are always done in a ‘dynamic’ moving action. Our muscles and especially tensed muscles will always try to hold the positions of the joints and spine when they are out of order the muscles assumes this wrong position as the correct one and hold it there or in some cases even cause the blockage.
The Dorn Method uses motion to divert the muscles tension and in this relaxed state it is reasonably easy to re-align the bones. The same principal as when getting sand through a sieve, you need to shake (move) the sieve in order to get the sand through it.
The Zen Chi is a unique non-impact exercise movement that stimulates venous and lymphatic as the digestive tract, all whilst lying down, making it the easiest exercise routine, 15 minutes exercise a day will improve energy levels, body appearance and create an overwhelming sensation of well being
