Aim for the moon and if you do not succeed you will fall amongst the stars.
Massage strengthens and improves circulation by relaxing tired, tight and sore muscles. Massage also reduces physical and emotional stress, revitalizes the body and revives the mind, hence improving overall health. Relaxed muscles also have increased circulation and greater flexibility. Massage can melt away stress and relieve tension.
I offer the following types of massage treatments
-
Swedish Relaxation is a gentle massage, ideal for touch sensitive people and those seeking a pamper. Your muscles get stimulated but without hard pressure, leaving you feeling nicely relaxed.
- Deep Tissue is a firmer type of massage during which the deeper layers of muscles are stimulated through different massage techniques and may involve the release of trigger points. Very effective for treating tight muscles.

Hot Stone massage involves the use of volcanic basalt stones which are high in iron and magnesium, making them powerful tools for unwinding stressed bodies and calming the nervous system. The stones are not only used for massage but also placed on the body which allows the minerals in the stones to be released and absorbed through the skin to work deep in the muscles. This aids the release of tight tendons and ligaments, increases circulation and lymph vitality and promotes the release of toxins. This detoxifying effect can leave you feeling tired and thirsty as the body initially detoxifies and heals. The stones have a natural gentle exfoliating effect leaving your skin soft and smooth.
There are certain contraindications to massage treatments. Please advise me before booking a treatment appointment or check with your medical doctor if you have any health concerns.
