Services 

Thai Massage - 

lying on your back, the therapist will start at your feet. The treatment involves the therapist pressing up and down the body along the Zen lines using her palms, thumbs, forearms and knees. There will be some stretching involved too but only as far as your body can naturally stretch

 

Aromatherapy Massage - 

Aromatherapy massage is used for a variety of different reasons, including relaxation, pain management and mood improvement which is enhanced with the addition of oils.

 

Deep Tissue Massage - 

Deep tissue massage is a massage technique that’s mainly used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains and sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure through slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connecting tissues. This helps to break down scar tissue that usually forms after an injury and reduces tension in muscle and tissue. It may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation

 

Back Neck & Shoulders Massage ​- 

​Reduces pain and tightness in areas of deep tension within the back, neck and shoulders which pretty much everyone who works in an environment where you are seated at a desk or computer for long periods of time will experience. This type of massage can help relieve that tension by improving blood circulation and stiffness in these areas, which in turn increases flexibility & movement. It can also prevent development of headaches and migraines plus reduce stress & anxiety​

 

Foot Massage - 

In Thai foot massage, oil is combined with firm, fluid strokes to ease tension and relax the feet. This involves some pulling on the toes, kneading into the arch of the foot, massaging the heel area and/or manipulating the ball of the foot. The aim is to not only soothe this area of the body but also aims to go much deeper than that by releasing tension felt all around the body, from the soles of the feet to the top of the head.

 

Swedish Massage ​- 

A typical Swedish massage targeting muscles through a combination of friction, gliding strokes, and kneading. Famed for its relaxation effects. It can also improve circulation and is commonly used for simple pain management. Or as a relaxing bit of pampering!

​

Pregnant Massage ​-

Benefits of Pregnancy Massage: 

  • Stress and Muscle Tension Relief:

    Pregnancy can lead to increased stress and muscle tension, and massage can help alleviate these issues.

​

Hot Stone Massage ​-

​A hot stone massage is a massage therapy technique that uses smooth, heated stones to enhance relaxation and ease muscle tension, used in conjunction with traditional massage techniques

  • Hot stone massage involves using smooth, heated stones, typically basalt, which is a volcanic rock that retains heat well. The stones are heated to a comfortable temperature (around 120-130 degrees Fahrenheit) and used to massage the body, or placed on specific points like the back, palms, or between the toes. The heat helps to relax muscles, allowing the therapist to work deeper into the tissues

Benefits:

    The heat and massage can help to relieve stress and tension, promoting relaxation.

  • Muscle Pain Relief:

    Hot stone massage can help to ease muscle pain and spasms.

  • Reduced Anxiety and Stress:

  • Improved Sleep Quality:

    The relaxation benefits of hot stone massage can also help to improve sleep quality
