Are You Pregnant?
Every pregnant woman deserves some pampering. Massage therapy can assist in reducing stress and anxiety, promotes relaxation and prepares muscles and joints for childbirth and is a much needed therapy to ease some of the aches and pains experienced during pregnancy and labour.
Vicki Hobbs of Phoenix Therapies, is a remedial massage therapist with a Diploma in pregnancy, labour and postnatal massage. Vicki has advanced knowledge and training of the anatomy and physiology of pregnancy, stretching during pregnancy, labour techniques and massage instruction for your partner.
The benefits of massage are numerous; however more specifically for pregnancy they include relief from muscle cramps, swelling, tension and pain especially in the lower back, neck, hips and legs.
At Phoenix Therapies we use a specially designed bodyCushion for pregnancy massage. The bodyCushion was designed by an orthopaedic specialist with the goal of creating the ultimate in comfort for the client whilst giving the therapist better results in treatment. The bodyCushion provides a safe and comfortable support for pregnant clients and adjusts to individuals of all shapes and sizes while relieving breast discomfort. The bodyCushion is extremely therapeutic, giving decompression of joints, relaxation of muscles and pressure away from the hips and gives more support than the tables with a hole in the middle for your belly, which can put too much strain on the ligaments of the uterus.
Massage is a fantastic way to help you relax during this important stage of your life, and your little one will love it too as they will sense that you are calm and relaxed. Celebrate your pregnancy by nurturing yourself during this special time.

Hot Stone Therapy
Hot stone therapy is a specialty massage that uses smooth, heated stones. The stones are basalt, a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat well. It is a deeply soothing, relaxing form of massage. The heat helps tight muscles to release.
We use traditional strokes of Swedish massage while holding a heated stone. As the stone cools, it is replaced with another heated stone. We also leave heated stones in specific points along your spine, or in the palms of your hands, or even between your toes to improve the flow of energy in your body.

Replenishing Facial Massage
Regular facial massage can lead to smoother, firmer, more radiant skin by minimising sagging and fine lines, releasing toxins and impurities, normalising moisture balance, maximising your skin’s natural radiance and releasing tension.
We use a combination of essential oils and Aloe Vera products in this deeply relaxing and replenishing facial massage to help rejuvenate and revitalise your facial skin while restoring moisture levels.

Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a very misunderstood therapy. It is a process, which produces relaxation, distraction of the conscious mind, heightened suggestibility and increased awareness, allowing access to the subconscious mind through the imagination.
You will not feel hypnotised, nor will you feel out of control – there are no weird feelings, no loss of consciousness and you will always hear what is being said to you, and at all times you will be able to control your actions.
Hypnosis is NOT sleep, or a state of unconsciousness or being controlled by someone else. In hypnosis you are in an awake state albeit one of deep relaxation.
Benefits of Hypnosis:
- Weight Loss
- Smoking Cessation
- Self Improvement
- Relaxation Technique
- Anxiety and Phobias
- Improve Memory
- Improve Concentration
- Improve Study Habits
- Exam Preparation and Anxiety
- Sports Enhancement
- Speed Reading
- Creativity Enhancement
- Improved Communication
- Public Speaking

Thought Field Therapy (TFT)
Thought Field Therapy is an easy and painless technique, which focuses on imbalances in the body’s energy field.

Benefits of TFT:
- Eliminate stress, fear, depression, panic, phobias, guilt, anger, grief, rage;
- Eliminate self-sabotage;

Ear Candling
Ear Candling has been used for centuries by the Hopi Indians, South American Indian, Egyptians, Chinese and Central Europeans. This practice is again gaining popularity throughout the world because it is a gentle, soothing, painless and effective therapy. The candles are hollow so the gentle warmth of the candle can stimulate the circulatory and lymphatic systems, thus aiding the body's own auto immune system. The heat of the flame creates a gentle vacuum which assists the removal of waste, other secretions and debris into the hollow candle for quick, easy disposal. This is a gentle alternative to ear syringing and for most ear and sinus problems.
Ear Candling is used for:
- Blocked ears;
- Glue ears;
- Ear aches;
- Sinusitis;
- Reducing tinitus;
- Pressure pain caused by flying or diving;
- Removing sand and some other foreign bodies from the ear.

Reiki
Reiki is based on the premise that universal energy flows through all living things. When blockages occur, this energy cannot flow freely through the body resulting in a range of disorders – emotional, physical and spiritual.
Using the traditional Usui method, Reiki life energy is channelled through the hands to the client whilst you are fully clothed. You may experience the transfer of the Reiki energy as a warm tingling sensation.
Benefits of Reiki:
- Releases energy blocks and suppressed feelings;
- Balances the energies in the body;
- Clears toxins;
- Relaxes and reduces stress;
- Strengthens the immune system;
- Enhances personal awareness;
- Promotes natural self-healing.

Energy Blanket
The Orgone Energy Blanket is a Russian invention and was developed to induce the body and mind to rest, recover and rejuvenate. External electro-magnetic and electro-static influences are blocked and reflected away, while reflecting back the body's own infrared and ultra-hi frequencies back into the body.
A specially designed film membrane inside the blanket prevents the client's electromagnetic emissions from dissipating outwards. This same layer converts these emissions from the body and reflects them back into the body. The reflected emissions have the effect of redistributing the charge density on the skin and exerting therapeutic action on the biologically active points of the body surface to help correct any faults in the systems controlling the overall homeostasis within the body.
The infrared irradiation also improves the metabolism of substances, accelerates gas exchange and the oxygenation process, and speeds up the vital activity in tissues. The pain relieving effect is brought about through altering the receptor sensitivity and faster removal of the metabolic waste products.
Benefits of Energy Blanket:
- Perfect to release stress and promote relaxation;
- Protection from external electro-magnetic and electro-static fields;
- Therapeutic exposure of the patient to his / her own extra-high frequency electromagnetic emissions;
- Redistribution of the electrical / energy charges over the body;
- Therapeutic exposure of the client to their own reflected infrared emissions with widespread effects that may include pain relief from chronic fatigue syndrome and emotional upheavals.
