Swedish massage techniques and aromatherapy oils are used to unwind from the demands and stresses of life. For classic burn-out or a life pick me up, relaxation massage has been used for hundreds of years to improve wellbeing. This style of massage can reduce high blood pressure, improve circulation and immunity, and help with sleeping issues, anxiety and depression. As well as chronic conditions such as fatigue and fibromyalgia.

Take it to another level by having a hot stone massage, whereby heated stones are incorporated into the session to gain a deeper state of relaxation.

Pre & Post Partum

Injury and Surgery Recovery

Had a recent injury or planning to have surgery. Restorative can help speed up your recovery and reduce the chance of on-going issues. I'll also endeavour to work alongside your physiotherapy and other health care practitioners were appropriate. Aiming for the best possible outcome for you.

What about old injuries, like that fall as a child or more traumatic events like a car crash. The system remembers and your body will compensate for these over your lifetime. Possibly causing those unexplained alignments that you are experiencing.

It's never too late to work with these conditions, as even a simple procedure like a colonoscopy, can create scar tissue or whiplash and concussion can manifest body holding patterns years later.

Visceral and Neural Manipulation

Visceral and Neural Manipulation are gentle non-invasive techniques that involves working with the fascia and ligaments surrounding the visceral organs, nerves and or other structures in the body, with the aim to improve circulation and restore natural functional movement.

Have ongoing issues that don't seem to resolve, this may be the modality for you. For example right hand side shoulder issues may be related to the liver.

These techniques also keep working for 3 weeks post treatment, so sessions can be more spaced out and affordable. Please note patients should be comfortable with the abdominal area and bony structures of the thorax and pelvis being worked on.

All work is done clothed.

Reiki and Energy Balancing

Attuned in Usui Reiki, this form of energy healing from Japan, promotes an overall sense of well-being and peace. It helps drop the nervous system down into a theta state, whereby optimum energetic balance and flow can be achieved. This aides with relaxation and supports healing systems within the body.

Best described as part of your anatomy you cannot see, your chakra system is a reflection of your emotional state and storey. As well as your energetic connection to your ancestral line, people and places.

Balancing your energy systems allows you to insightfully explore who you really are and facilitates personal growth. This work is performed within the auric system and may or may not include the placement of stones and crystals during the session.

Techniques

Lymphatic Drainage

The lymphatic system is a network of vessels, nodes, and organs involved in fluid balance, filtering toxins, and the immune system. This system relies on a pressure differential in the body to return lymph to the thoracic duct. Any fascial restrictions in the body with restrict lymph flow, as well as incorrect breathing and a system stuck in flight or fright. Fascial restrictions are addressed with both visceral and Neural manipulation, breath work and vagus resets.

Also MLD may be used and involves light, gentle, and rhythmic techniques that stimulate lymphatic flow and drainage. Thereby aiding in the reduction of fluid build up in the body and promoting tissue healing. It will be combined with visceral manipulation and exercises to achieve the best results.

As well as lymph related conditions, MLD is highly recommended before and after any surgery* to speed up recovery times and reduce scarring. Other conditions such as fibromyalgia and sarcoidosis, have shown improved results with this technique.

Please note with surgery more sessions closer to and after your surgery is recommended.
