Hot Stone Massage ~ included in price
The warm basalt stones add a sense of depth to your treatment. When used in conjunction with essential aromatherapy oils, they allow your body to absorb the oils more quickly. The soothing heat improves the circulation and blood flow of the area being massaged. As the stones gently warm your skin and help release tension, you will feel a sense of deep relaxation ~ as though all your problems are being ironed out.
With the healing powers that they can create, it is easy to accept the opinion that one stroke of the stones is the equivalent to 5-10 strokes of any therapists hands... Seriously! how good is that?

Deep Tissue Massage ~ min. 90 minutes £60
This is especially helpful for chronic aches and pains; using slow, firm, deep strokes,knuckles and forearms and sometimes elbows. To avoid you being in any pain or discomfort the movement is slower than the classic Swedish massage, because of this a longer session is always recommended. You may also be asked to breathe deeply at certain points when particular tense areas or troubled spots are found, so that together we can aid the offending muscle to release and give. This will help us work deeper into any knots. Any pain you experience should always be an "Aaaaah" and never an "OW"!
Swedish Massage
Is the most common and best-known type of massage in the West. If it's your first time or you don't get massages often, Swedish massage is the best place to start.
This type of massage can be slow and gentle, or vigorous and bracing.

Myofascial Release ~ min. 90 minutes recommended
Not all pain is muscular. Myofascial Release is a very relaxing treatment that releases restriction within the connective tissue network ~ or fascia.
Working slowly and gently into the tissue, we enable stuck and hardened areas, where function has been difficult, to become more pliable and soft.
The "release" that the body allows and accepts is then followed in the direction of least resistance. When it starts to resist, we wait for the tissue to "give" and for the connective tissue fibres to become flexible.
At the time you may not feel much is happening, or possibly, twinges in other parts of your body - this is all perfectly normal. However, when you step down from the table, you will feel a sense of being lighter and freer, as if more space has suddenly become available.
The principles of Myofascial Release, are also life principles: Be centered; engage slowly: and wait at the barrier without forcing the system, and change WILL happen.

In China, bamboo symbolises eternal youth, strength and peace.
Warm Bamboo Massage is a nurturing therapy that will leave you with a sense that your muscles have been stretched and elongated.
The warm bamboo provides a deep broad pressure, the smooth surface and gentle heat simply iron out pain and discomfort.
As the heat relaxes the muscles, and opens up the joints, the bamboo penetrates down into the soft tissue and helps us to work right into the fascia and the deepest knots.
You will not notice the bamboo but feel strong hands and a deep penetrating heat that will leave you feeling not only energised and revitalised but also relaxed.
