Thai Massage
Traditional Thai massage is an ancient system of healing with its roots in Yoga, Ayurvedic medicine and Buddhist spiritual practice. This unique and complete system of Yoga therapy combines rhythmic massage, acupressure, gentle twisting, deep stretching and meditation in a flowing harmonious full body massage.
By incorporating deep muscle work, acupressure and meridian work and exquisite yoga like stretches within the massage, it means that specific problems can be addressed and the whole body is balanced. This releases powerful healing forces which ease pain and stress and you leave feeling energised, relaxed and usually taller! Traditional Thai Massage is a fully clothed massage carried out on a comfortable mat on the floor.
Indonesian Deep Tissue Massage
This unique and powerful oil massage originates from the spice islands of Indonesia, and has been handed down through generations to balance the body and restore vitality.
Deep tissue massage is combined with palm work to ease tension in the body and meridians are worked to balance the body’s intrinsic energy, afterwards you will feel refreshed, energised and balanced. It incorporates firm fluid and rhythmic movements designed to remove tension from the body and soothe and smooth out overworked muscles. Combining stretches and pulls, manipulations and twists from Thai massage makes this an all over MOT for your body.
Herbal compresses or warmed Bamboo or Hot stones will also be used when required in a treatment, to further relax and treat muscle pain and tension.
The DORN Alignment Method
A gentle and very effective treatment for common back and joint pain developed in Germany over 35 years ago.
Dorn is extremely safe and involves no clicking or crunching of joints. It works with both the therapist and patient working together to provide maximum benefit. I use this method both in my treatments and as aftercare exercises (ok, this is your homework!) to ensure maximum benefit is obtained from the treatment.
