Aromatherapy
Combines powerful healing properties of essential oils with ancient massage techniques to reduce stress, increase relaxation and ease muscle tension. The inhaled aromas from these oils are widely believed to stimulate brain functions. They can be also absorbed through the skin, where they travel through the bloodstream and promote healing.

Indian Head massage
Based on an ancient Ayuvedic healing system practised in India for over 1,000 years. It is a wonderfully relaxing therapy that involves massage of the soft tissues in the upper back, shoulders, neck and scalp. There are many benefits e.g. relieving headaches, migraine, TMJ, muscle tension. It also increases alertness and concentration and reduce stress.

Integrated Energy Therapy (IET)
Is a safe, gentle way to empower and balance your life by helping release patterns of the past. Feelings and sensations are stored in the cells of the body like facts are stored in the brain. Negative or traumatic experiences, stress, fear, anger etc can become suppressed in the body causing energy blockages. IET targets specific areas where these cellular memories are stored, helping to release them. As these blockages are cleared the suppressed charge of energy dissipates and your energy fields are rebalanced.

 

 

Reflexology
Based on the ancient belief that every gland and organ of the body corresponds to a reflex point on the foot. By applying a specific pressure point technique reflexology helps re-establish balance in the body and stimulates the body’s own healing ability. (Approved by VHI, AVIVA and LAYA healthcare)

 

Fertility Reflexology

Stress is the most important contributing factor of infertility. It can lower prolactin levels (a hormone that, in excessive amounts can inhibit infertility). Stress in a woman disrupts the hormonal communication between the brain, the pituitary gland and the ovaries, interfering with both the maturation of an ovum and the ovulation process.

 

Reflexology treatments can be done to reduce stress through relaxation to help normalise menstrual cycles, improve the ovum and increase the likelihood of fertilisation and implantation.

During a reflexology treatment, the whole of your body and mind will be calmed and all of your bodily systems (immune, digestive, nervous, reproductive, hormones, etc) strengthened. In this way, you will be able to nurture yourself, relax and, as a result, improve your chances of conceiving.

Reflexology will be able to assist you no matter which route you choose. Should you select the conventional conception route, then it will help you cope with these stresses as well as help your body maintain a balanced state and improve your chances of conception. Or if you elect to take the more natural route then reflexology can assist in much the same way by stimulating and balancing hormones and bodily systems.

 

Ayurvedik Kansa Vatki Foot & Leg Massage

This is a wonderfully relaxing holistic treatment, which can help to balance the body, mind and spirit. Just under an hour in duration, the treatment begins by cleansing the feet and legs, followed by some relaxing foot and leg moves. Then, slowly and methodically, the entire feet and lower legs (toes, feet, ankles, calves and knees) are encouraged to relax through the application of  massage techniques, carried out with the aid of coconut oil, ghee (clarified butter) or other oils.

The treatment continues with special moves performed with a small 3-metal bowl. The metals used are copper, zinc and tin and this sacred metal alloy (Kansa) is known in Ayurveda, India’s traditional holistic healing system, as the ‘healing metal’ – it is thought to be even more effective than gold or silver! It is thought that copper may help in reducing pain and inflammation, zinc in aiding the digestive and immune systems, whilst tin is believed to aid digestion as well as headaches and insomnia.

Reiki
(meaning universal life force energy) is a Japanese form of stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. If your life force energy is low you are more likely to get sick or feel stressed. This gentle treatment works by flowing through the energy field and charging it with positive energy, raising the vibrational level and allowing life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.
