Holistic

The Benefits and Effects of Complementary Therapies

Any complementary therapy will have a benefit on your mind, body and soul. A therapy will relax and calm, reducing stress and anxiety. Massage will increase the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, encouraging cell regeneration. Blood and lymph circulation is also increased, promoting the removal of toxins and waste products.

It is recommended that you have four weekly treatments to begin with, followed by monthly treatments to acheive the full benefit of relaxation and stress reduction.

Please note that complementary therapies are not a substitute for conventional medical advice and treatment. If you have any doubts about your health, please consult your GP.

Reflexology

Reflexology began in the ancient civilisations of China, Egypt, India and North America. Today it is one of the most popular alternative therapies in the UK.

Reflexology is performed by gently stimulating pressure points on the foot, which correspond to areas of the body, helping to relax and rejuvenate you. Imbalances throughout the body will be corrected and blocked energy will be released, easing tension, removing waste and toxins from the body and soothing inflammation and discomfort.

The benefits of Reflexology are reduced stress, deep relaxation, improved circulation, increased energy levels and the creation of a sense of well-being. It is recommended that you have a course of 4 weekly treatments in order to begin the healing process and then regular maintenance treatments.

Indian Head Massage

Indian Head Massage is a seated treatment, which can be carried out over clothes or unclothed, incorporating the upper back, arms, neck, shoulders, head and face. Using an aromatherapy oil blend, an Indian Head Massage will reduce stress, improve hair and scalp condition, increase energy levels, improve circulation and stimulate the circulatory and lymphatic systems to remove impurities and toxins. This treatment is particularly suitable if you work at a computer as the stresses put on the upper body can sometimes be quite painful.

Please note: this treatment is not suitable for anyone suffering from recent whiplash or other upper body injuries. Migraine suffers may benefit from this treatment, but not during or immediately after a migraine.

Aromatherapy Massage

An aromatherapy massage is a wonderful, gentle and relaxing full body treatment. Essential oils are gently massaged onto your skin, releasing stress and increasing your sense of well-being. Each aromatherapy oil has its own therapeutic properties and a blend will be created to suit your own needs.

Crystal Therapy

Crystal therapy can be traced back as far as Egyptian times. Each crystal is believed to have its own therapeutic properties which can assist in rebalancing the body and the chakra system. During this treatment, you lie fully clothed on the couch and crystals are placed around and on the body. Using crystals and a pendulum, blockages may be removed from the body and your chakras are cleansed and energised, resulting in a deep sense of relaxation and reducing stress levels. Crystals are selected intuitively to suit your individual needs and regular treatments are recommended to aid your body's healing process and promote a sense of well-being. Different layouts may be used as a treatment programme develops.

Angelite Back Treatment

Angelite brings inner peace, tranquility and calm. Lying fully clothed on the couch, a large Angelite crystal is gently massaged over the back to give a wonderful relaxing treatment. Strings of citrine are they placed along the spine to gently removed any pain. The treatment ends with a chakra balancing.

Hopi Ear Candles

This non-invasive therapy may be effective in ear, nose and throat problems, helping with headaches, migraines, hay fever, sinusitis, tinitis and colds. It may help equalise ear pressure before or after flying. A gentle lymph drainage facial massage is included to stimulate lymph flow and increase blood circulation.

The burning ear candle creates a light suction action and the movement of the flame causes a vibration in the candle to generate a massaging effect on the ear drum and auditary canal. You will feel warmth and hear a crackling sound during the treatment.

It is recommended that you have a treatment once a month. However, if you suffer from conditions such as sinusitis or tinitis, more frequent treatments can be carried out until the condition stablises. If you suffer pain/popping when flying, a treatment 1 week and another 2 days before depature may be beneficial.

Please note: this treatment is not suitable for anyone with a perforated eardrum, grommets, auricular cysts or tumours, diseases of the ear bones, thrombosis, high/low blood pressure or an embolism. Migraine suffers and sinusitis suffers should not have a treatment during or immediately after an attack.

Reki

Reiki is a balancing and harmonising energy which works on the mind, body and spirit. The energy is channelled through the therapist's hands while the client lies fully clothed on a couch, or sits on a chair. It is very relaxing and stress relieving and may help with pain control and balancing the emotions, providing a sense of well-being. This treatment is suitable for most people, including children. As with all holistic treatments, weekly treatments will kick start the body's healing process before changing to regular monthly treatments.

Angelic Reiki

In this slightly different form of Reiki, angels are asked to help in the treatment. It is carried out lying down fully clothed on the couch and the therapists hands remain in one place whilst channelling the Angelic energy.

Hot Stones Massage

I have decided to reintroduce the hot stones massage treatment; however, this treatment will need to be carried out at my house, in my kitchen. The hot stones equipment is too big, heavy and hot for me to transport and use safely as a mobile treatment.

Warm basalt stones are gently eased over the skin, to give a deep, stimulating massage, creating a sensation of warmth and comfort, easing away and muscle tension and stress.

A hot stones back massage is also available.

Please note: this treatment is not suitable for anyone with high or low blood pressure, thrombosis or embolism, epilepsy, heart or circulatory problems, arthritis or osteoporosis and anyone taking steroid medications.

Pamper Party

What is a Pamper Party?

Why not get together with some friends, crack open a bottle, add some snacks and enjoy each other’s company, whilst being pampered by a fully qualified therapist.

Throw a Pamper Party to celebrate a special occasion, such as a hen night or birthday, or just because you want to spend time with your friends. Pamper Parties offer an affordable and fun way to try new and calming treatments in familiar surroundings, leaving you uplifted and relaxed.

Would you like to host a Pamper Party?

You just need to get a maximum of 6 friends together, provide some drinks and nibbles and make sure there is enough room for me to put up my couch (if required), and a table if you are having readings as well.  

You need to let me know in advance which treatments are required and to collect payments. You will all need to complete a client questionnaire on the day.

If there are fewer than 6 guests having treatments, I am able to offer 2 treatments for £20 if someone wants to try more!
