Deep Tissue Therapeutic Massage * Clinical Aromatherapy

Clothed Therapeutic/Relaxation Treatment * LaStone® Therapy

 

Some clients do make appointments with me as a relaxing treat but on the whole I work more specifically relieving muscular & joint tension, stiffness, immobility, injury, pain and ongoing varied stress symptoms. I have often worked with clients with migraine, headaches, chronic sinus & digestive problems, anxiety, low energy, extreme fatigue, emotional trauma and depression.
I have had the great privilege of working with women throughout their pregnancy.

Each treatment is tailored to meet your unique needs. Areas of focus and pressure are adjusted as required, so no two sessions are ever identical.

Therapeutic Massage is used for stress reduction and the management of musculo skeletal pain and dysfunction. Oil is applied to the skin and a variety of massage movements used; initially attending to the larger area of treatment, then focusing in to concentrate on specific constricted muscles and tissues.   

Clinical Aromatherapy is the controlled use of essential oils, combined with the therapeutic power of massage, to promote physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. The oils are highly concentrated and have specific healing properties.
After consultation and in accordance with the personal and unique needs of the individual, particular oils are selected and mixed with a carrier oil, to ensure safe dilution.
Aromatherapy is equally beneficial as relaxation or for more specific conditions. The massage itself can be gently soothing or deeply therapeutic, depending on the individuals particular needs, preference and age.

Clothed Therapeutic / Relaxation Treatment Preserving a client’s privacy and modesty are of the utmost importance. Professional draping procedures are used which only uncover the body area being treated. However some clients feel uncomfortable receiving a treatment which requires any undressing. For this massage you wear light, loose, comfortable clothing and are also covered with towels and a blanket. I can still work deeply in specific areas if required.

LaStone® Therapy is the original hot stone massage created by Mary Nelson. Clinically it is the application of thermotherapy, using heated basalt stones interchanged with cooled marble. The stones are applied to the body in various ways to bring about relief to stiff and sore muscles, easing both chronic and acute conditions.
The physiological healing benefits of alternating hot and cold to the body have long been scientifically and medically proven. LaStone® Therapy administers this principle with unerring elegance; producing sedative and re-energizing responses to the body. It capitalizes on traditional practices with a current contemporary approach. The temperatures and energies of the stones penetrate deeply into the muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones. Circulation is rapidly altered, immediately increasing the level of nourishment reaching every cell in the body. A profoundly relaxing and detoxifying treatment.

LaStone® Therapy is currently unavailable. It is not a treatment which lends itself to mobile service due to all the equipment involved.

 

Relax and breathe.
Breathe and relax.
