COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIST (VTCT level 2)
MASSAGE THERAPIST (VTCT level 3)
I trained as a Massage Therapist three years ago and I am passionate about using my skills to improve the wellbeing of others.
My own experiences in the care sector have taught me the importance of patience, kindness and taking things slowly. It is essential to stop for a moment and take a breath … and listen to what your body is telling you.
Taking a moment for yourself can be hard to do when we have so many demands and pressures in our lives … allow me to support you through a treatment focusing solely on you and your needs.
I take this approach by offering the following therapies:
- Aromatherapy (pre-blended)
- Indian Head Massage
- Thai Foot Massage
- Hot Stone Massage
- Lava Shells (hot or cold)
- Swedish Massage
- Professional Skincare Facial
- Body Glow (body brushing/exfoliation wrap)
- Bamboo Massage
Pre-blended aromatherapy massage techniques are used to stimulate or calm the body. Touch is a primary human need and is rooted into human culture.
Indian Head Massage is a holistic healing practice that involves massaging the head, face, neck, and shoulders to relieve stress and tension.
Thai foot massage is an ancient therapeutic healing technique from Thailand that involves applying pressure to the feet and lower legs, using thumbs, fingers, hands, and a wooden tool to stimulate Sen lines (energy pathways) and reflex points.
A hot stone massage is a form of therapeutic bodywork that uses smooth, heated basalt stones, typically placed on specific points of the body, to relax muscles and deepen the effects of massage techniques like kneading and long strokes.
A Lava Shell massage is a self-heating massage that uses polished Tiger Clam shells as a tool to provide deep relaxation and muscle relief, similar to a hot stone massage.
Swedish massage is a full-body massage technique that uses long, gliding strokes, kneading, and circular movements to relax muscles, improve circulation, and reduce tension.
Professional skincare facial, not only a deep cleansing facial but also incorporates an Indian Head Massage.
Body glow features an invigorating scrub to exfoliate the skin which increases circulation. This is followed by hot mitts, then creams and oils are applied, the body is wrapped up to leave skin feeling smooth and radiant.
