Deep tissue is designed for those wanting a much more dramatic effect. At times it can be more painful as lactic acid is broken down and the fibres are realigned, commonly known as knots. Often clients refer to the sensation as a ‘grateful pain’. Using the forearm, elbow and fist deeper layers can be accessed removing waste products, stagnant blood and improving scar tissue. Deep tissue fights against the continual pull of gravity and day to day stress allowing the posture to take hold of its original position.

Post-natal massage can be received very soon after birth. It can aid lymph drainage to rid excess fluid and soothe away any new aches developing from caring for a baby. It can be performed, again either lying on the side, in the chair or traditional prone position. Also, all aromatherapy oils are safe to be added.

Reflexology is the ancient art of healing the body directly through the feet. It is ideal for those wanting to completely relax. It can also assist further healing in the body by bringing it into balance. When our body is in balance it is a state called Homeostasis. Once in homeostasis, our own healing system works much more efficiently. Reflexology affects the entire body hence bringing about a deep feeling of well being.
The foot is a map to our entire body from the spine to our endocrine system. The map is made up of zones and reflex points that correspond to each organ, gland etc. Using specific techniques with the thumb and hand, each reflex point on the foot is stimulated to activate a specific area. It works wonders for insomnia, fertility, joints ache and much more.

Hot Stones

Hot Stones
Hot stone massage is suitable for everyone. Especially those with poor circulation or stubborn tight knots that need a lot of knead! The hot stone can save time from using lots of repetitive movements to allowing the heat to seduce the deeper layers. The stone itself can be used as a tool to push deeper into the muscle freeing up knots.
Basalt volcanic stones are used as they hold much heat and release it slowly. The heat has a much more dynamic affect on blood circulation and lymph drainage. The rhythmic flow of the stones is hypnotic whilst having a powerful affect.
Heated stones can be added to any treatment for that extra feel good factor.

Everyone ought to have a facial at least once in their lifetime. Apart from having a deep relaxing and pampering affect it is highly beneficial to have healthy clean skin.
A facial removes the build up of dead skin cells that can act like a barrier and prevent your good creams from actually getting into the skin, such as SPF’s which are used to protect from sun damage. A facial allows your skin to breathe creating a healthy youthful glow.
A facial not only includes a deep cleanse and exfoliation, it also involves a soothing neck, shoulder and face massage to iron out wrinkles and plump up tired muscles. Steam is used to soften the dead skin cells for easy removal and the opening of pores for a deeper clean.
Both the express facial and long facial include a double cleanse, massage and exfoliating mask. A head massage is performed whilst the exfoliating mask takes effect. The long facial includes an extra mask with an arm and hand massage or a foot massage.

This treatment is ideal for a pre-holiday when you want the most out of your sun protective creams. Or a special occasion when you want that all over healthy glow. It can also benefit those who are preparing for surgery and will be bed bound for at least a couple of weeks.
Body scrubs and wraps are ancient methods used by the Egyptians, Romans and Greeks to rid the body of dead skin cells and old, secreted oils. They allow the skin to breathe more easily to prevent skin disease. 1% of our respiratory is via the skin. If it is blocked the area can become unhealthy and dull our senses.
First, the area is body brushed to remove flaky skin. The area is then steamed with hot cloths. Salt or sugar scrub is applied with strong vigorous movements to exfoliate.
Additionally you can add a choice of oils, creams or even yoghurt to be poured onto the entire body and wrapped in a plastic sheet. Heat is applied via a hot blanket to help the application penetrate deeper. When the plastic is removed the remaining oils are further massaged into the skin.
These two treatments can be together or enjoy them on their own over a 30 minute or 60 minute session. Or go all out for the 2hour PURE INDULGENCE session that includes a facial, Indian Head and reflexology too! It’s a complete make-over with transformative results!
