Swedish Massage
from £70
The Swedish massage course is the most widely known of treatments known in the West. It's the foundation for other types of Western massage, including sports massage, deep tissue etc and is based on the Western concepts of anatomy and physiology, as opposed to energy work on "meridians" or zen lines which are used in Asian massage systems.
The treatment is carried out while you are lying on a treatment bed, surrounded by soothing, relaxing music. During this treatment, I use either grape-seed oil or massage balm to lubricate the skin before I warm up the muscle tissue, and use various techniques to release tension and gradually break up muscle "knots" or adhered tissues, called adhesions. Swedish massage promotes relaxation, stress relief and muscle relief among other health benefits.
This treatment allows me to work on your legs, back, arms, chest, (abdomen and feet are optional). |~| (1 hr - 3 hrs)

The lymphatic system is a vital part of our immune system. Part of its function is to drain, transport, filter and remove broken down foreign substances and waste from our tissue.
This gentle, rhythmical, precise, massage-like technique gently moves lymph towards the lymph nodes, where the body can dispose of the waste more easily.

Pregnancy Massage
from £70
Studies show that women who receive regular massages have fewer complications during their pregnancy and labour and that their babies are more settled and content, suffering fewer baby ailments. Pregnancy can put strain and pressure on the joints, ligaments and organs causing some pain and discomfort which massage can help alleviate.
In addition, research also shows that the baby can greatly benefit from massage as endorphins (feel good chemicals) are released by the mother during massage that are passed onto the baby.
Amongst many benefits, massage during pregnancy has been found to help alleviate :
Muscle tension
Muscle spasm & cramping
Sciatic pain
Swelling
Oedema
Back, neck and shoulder discomfort caused by hormonal and postural changes.
It can also help improve quality of sleep, reduce headaches, relieve heartburn, balance mood-swings and help depression. |~| (1 hr - 2 hrs)
