Indian Head Massage

Indian head massage is based on the Indian Ayurveda system of healing. A calming but energising treatment which focuses on massaging the upper back, shoulders, and neck. This helps to ease tension in those areas, as well as inducing deep relaxation and relieving stress. It is also a really powerful mediative massage which works on the upper energy centres(chakras) to help rebalance the whole body for optimum health and well-being. If desired, oils can be selected and worked into the hair and scalp during the treatment to help nourish and soften the scalp.

Healing Swedish Massage

I intuitively combine Swedish massage techniques with Reiki. Weaving both together for an energetic and physical healing experience.

Massage promotes relaxation by releasing tension in the muscles, and the healing energy works to balance the body’s energy levels and align the chakra body system. Swedish massage is a whole-body therapeutic massage treatment that works on the soft tissues and muscles to restore health and create a calming and balancing effect on the nervous system. Massage movements are known as effleurage, kneading, rubbing and tapping.

Your treatment will be carried out on a couch. You will be asked to undress to your level of comfort. You will lie on a heated couch and be covered with either a sheet or towels. My Reiki-infused massage strokes are slow; my touch is gentle but firm. At the end of your treatment, with my hands still on the body, the Reiki energy will keep on flowing. This will integrate the energy more fully for a truly deeply relaxing experience.
