Massage Therapy

Massage helps create balance in all systems of the body & mind and stimulates energy points to promote blood flow to release tension and energy blocks from muscles and deep tissue.

The aim of Massage Therapy is to help create balance in all systems of the body and mind, and to stimulate energy points to promote blood flow to release tension and energy blocks from muscles and deep tissues. The blocks can misalign the muscular and skeletal system.


How Does Massage Threrapy Work?

When the energy points are stimulated, the tension and energy blocks automatically release, allowing the blood, oxygen and nutrients to flow freely again around the physical and organic body. This creates better functioning of all bodily systems and promotes better health.

Touch is a form of communicating with the body. Not only to build trust with people, but also to show we care. The importance of health is to maintain order between the mind, body and emotions. Massage can be used to assist in maintaining this order and help keep the body in a state of ease. Massage combined with other factors such as good eating habits, gentle regular exercise and learning to take time out from work and stress are ways that good health can be achieved.

  • Prevention of "knotting" in muscles (as a result of an injury)

Foot Reflexology

There is evidence from ancient Egypt from 2500BC in the form of pictographs showing what looks like foot reflexology being performed. It is a widely held view that reflexology was also used in China up to 5000 years ago. It is an age old and incredibly effective form of stimulating the body's own healing ability.


What Is Foot Reflexology?

Foot Reflexology is a science that maps out the reflexes on the feet and hands to all the organs in the body. It has been observed that congestion or tension in any part of the foot, mirrors the congestion or tension in a corresponding part in the body. For instance, when treating the big toe, it has a related effect in the head, and when treating the whole foot, it can have a relaxing and healing effect on the whole of the body.


Why Try Reflexology?

The healing art works on the principle of 'chi' or 'universal life energy'. When there is a blockage in the flow of this energy, 'dis-ease' will manifest itself in the body. When the blockage is released, then the energy can flow freely and the body's natural tendency to heal itself can take over.

Reflexology has developed into a respected and effective natural healing modality in the form of therapeutic foot massage, and has established a solid place in complimentary medicine. Not to be confused with basic foot massage, Foot Reflexology uses a specific pressure technique that works on precise reflex points on the feet that correspond with all body parts.


How Does It Work?

Wonderfully relaxing to receive, relieves sore tired feet, stimulates energy flow, calming, whole body tension relaxes. Convenient if you prefer not to have a whole body oil massage. Revitalising as a lunch time treatment and has major preventative effects for the health of your body, and care of mind and spirit to help you remain calm, energetic, clear minded and in control of your emotions.

  • Sinus pain

What Happens During a Treatment?

Pressure is applied to the reflex areas using specific thumb and finger techniques in a specific sequence. This causes physiological changes to take place in the body to stimulate the body's own healing potential. Working with the body's own energy pathways, energy blocks causing discomfort, pain, imbalance of the body's systems and stress are cleared.
