My clients find my treatments extremely relaxing, where 50% of my clients actually fall asleep mid treatment. Many remark they can feel warmth and healing coming through my hands whilst massaging. This is due to Reiki healing being naturally emitted whilst treating clients. All my clients give very positive feedback, with many stating 'it is by far, the best massage they have ever had!' High praise from some of my clients who have had many massages before being treated by myself. I particularly enjoy it when people have a look of peace and relaxation on their face at the end of the massage, showing that I have taken them to a deep level of relaxation and healing.
Aromatherapy aims to treat the whole person by helping to restore harmony of the mind, body and spirit, and is often used alongside conventional care in hospices, hospitals and other healthcare settings. I only use organic high quality oils which I blend in the presence of the client (no pre-blended oils), to increase their potency. I have a choice of 41 oils to create the perfect blend for your needs.
•Benefits:–Relief from stress, anxiety and tension. Induces deep relaxation–Improves mood–Improves sleep–A general sense of health and well-being–Can be used to help a wide variety of medical and skin conditions.
The treatment lasts approximately 1 hour 15 mins. Towels are used to ensure your modesty. After our initial consultation, I will select the correct blend of essential oils for your required area of focus, and make the blend of the oils there and then, with your approval / consultation. This way the oils are fresh and their therapeutic properties can have the maximum effect. The essential oils (a selection of usually 3, from 41 available oils) will be blended with a carrier oil, which also has skin nourishing properties. The treatment uses slow rhythmic strokes to aid relaxation and allows the oils to be absorbed into your body, to work their magic. Pressure will be tailored to your personal preference and medical situation. A cleanse and tone of the face with Dermalogica products is also included. It is not unusual to fall asleep during some part of the treatment due to the highly relaxing nature of it.
Each essential oil comes from a natural source (petals, bark, fruit,seeds, leaves) and has it’s own unique properties, which help with specific ailments or imbalances. I only use organic essential oils, not synthetically extracted oils. Some essential oils stimulate the mind and body and have an uplifting effect on your nervous system(top notes); Some effect the physical body – organs and metabolism (middle notes); and some effect the emotions – sedates and relaxes nerves (base notes). Usually a treatment blend uses an oil from top, middle and base to create a holistic synergy of treatment. Blends can be made to target any areas of focus wanted, including: poor circulation, migraine, depression, asthma, anxiety, cellulite and psoriasis.
Swedish body massage: Your body responds to massage in two ways. Firstly there is a physical effect on your body, for example massage may reduce muscle stiffness by breaking down crystals of lactic acid in the muscle, along with manipulation to loosen muscles and increase joint flexibility. Secondly there are psychological benefits such as increased relaxation and feelings of well-being. A massage helps to relax and unwind in our stressful world. The full body treatment includes the face, tummy, arms, legs and back and lasts approx 1 hour. Any areas the client prefers to miss out will be accommodated and more time is then spent on areas that the client wants treatment to be focused on. The clients modesty is protected with towels at all times. You can choose the pressure you like and whether I use just my hands for lighter pressure or forearms and elbows on legs and back for a deeper tissue massage. The massage includes a cleanse and tone of the face using Dermalogica products.
Bamboo massage: This powerful massage delivers stress relief, muscle strengthening, lymphatic drainage and reactivates circulation. Overall flexibility, balance and inner well-being is improved and specific reflexology points are activated. Skin is nourished and restored from the bamboo bio extract used throughout the massage.

It is great as part of a detox and weight loss program.

The bio extract deeply nourishes dry, devitalised skin lacking in elasticity. Rosehip oil is healing and rich in Omega 3. It has a high content in essential fatty acids (important in the regeneration process of the cells membrane, therefore the renewal of skin tissue), and Trans-retinoic acid, which makes skin younger. Rosehip oil is very effective at treating scars, stretch marks, sunburn and age spots. It increases hydration and acts on premature aging of cutaneous tissue, delaying and combating the signs of wrinkles.
•Bamboo cream oil is a complex of Bamboo bio-extract, marine collagen and sweet almond oil for ‘deep dryness’. This face and body cream balances the hydrolipids within the skin. It’s beautifully soft, rich and quickly absorbed as it restores the skin’s elasticity and tone for all day radiance.
