On-site Massage

On-site Massage can last 10, 15 or 20 minutes and is performed on a fully clothed massage recipient who sits in an ergonomic chair specifically designed to provide them with complete comfort and support. No oils or creams are used and the massage focuses on the back, arms, hands, shoulders, neck and head.

Taking this little oasis of time to de-stress and feel pampered will ensure you return to your daily routine calm, rejuvenated and ready to take on the world again.

30mins: £25.00

Indian Head Massage

Massaging the head can be soothing and relaxing, relieving stress and tension. This treatment focuses mainly on the face and scalp, but also includes the upper back, neck and shoulders.

Indian head massage can have a powerful effect in soothing tired muscles, helping to boost circulation and calming the mind.

This treatment is particularly good for people who are wheelchair bound or partially immobile.

Reflexology

Reflexology is the application of gentle pressure to specific points and areas on the feet, which are believed to correspond to different body organs, glands and systems. It has long been accepted that the focused stimulation of these areas of the feet has a beneficial effect on the person’s general health. Although not used to diagnose or cure health disorders, Reflexology can be used to complement other therapies and treatments.

Reflexology is a very relaxing therapy, helping to calm the mind. It helps to encourage the body to work naturally to restore its own healthy balance.

Reiki

The ancient art of Reiki has gained increased recognition in recent years for its effectiveness in reducing stress and promoting relaxation and healing. It is based on the belief that we all have an unseen life force energy which, when low, leaves us vulnerable to stress and sickness.

The practice involves placing the hands on or above key points while you are fully clothed allowing energy to flow throughout. By ‘laying on hands’ to revive this naturally powerful flow, Reiki can boost strength, vitality and the immune system.

Reiki can treat the whole person including, mind body and spirit.
