Indian Head Massage

This is an ideal introduction to body massage if you have not yet ventured into complementary therapies and is easily fitted into a busy schedule.

Apart from the de-stressing effect, oils can be incorporated into the Indian Head Massage to stimulate hair growth and improve its condition.

The client remains clothed and seated in a chair, whilst the therapist commences on the upper back and works towards the neck, scalp and finishing on the face. This promotes stimulation of the circulation, relaxes and soothes away tension but retains alertness.

Headache & migraine sufferers may find this particular therapy beneficial.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a safe and relaxing treatment that involves applying pressure to points on the feet or hands to prevent and treat mental, physical and emotional problems.

This relationship is called a ‘reflex’, which is when, by using special pressure techniques to stimulate points on the feet, imbalances in the tissues, organs and systems of the body can be detected and effectively treated to restore balance and well-being.
