Holistic body massage
This treatment​ will leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. Using a range of Swedish, Lomi Lomi (Hawaiian) and Tui Na (Chinese) techniques with a soothing blend of essential oils. Calms your body and mind, great for stress relief and general tension.​
​
Soft tissue massage/Trigger point therapy
​
Relieves tension deep in the muscles and connective tissues. Combining slow manual strokes with hands, forearms and elbows. Focusing on problem areas that are often chronic. Trigger point therapy complements this style of massage. It requires pressure to be applied to contracted muscle fibres (knots) to deactivate them which relieves tension, pain and improves mobility.
​
​
Sports massage
​
This treatment is often used by people that partake in regular exercise and/or are training for an event, however it can benefit everyone. This treatment helps to prevent injury and includes stretching and mobilising the muscles as well as soft tissue massage. Focusing on improving mobility in relation to the goal of the client and dysfunctional areas.

​​
Cupping
​
I incorporate cupping into soft tissue/sports massage for those problem areas that don't want to let go! Cupping helps to promote blood flow to a specific area and gets deeper into the fibres than manual therapy can. It's beneficial for chronic muscle tightness/pain, particularly in upper traps/back. Be aware that they may mark for up to 1-2 weeks.

​​
Hot stone massage
​​
​
An incredibly soothing hot stone massage that will relax your muscles and mind. The perfect treatment to relieve stress and promote relaxation. The hot basalt volcanic stones are used in combination with massage techniques to alleviate tension and restore a sense of wellbeing. The treatment is tailored to you so the appropriate pressure can be applied.
​​
​​
Pregnancy massage
​​
Pregnancy massage can be used as a gentle, relaxing treatment to calm the body and mind during this time. It can also be used to relieve some of the discomfort and pressure pregnancy puts on the body, especially shoulders, hips and lower back. Light to medium pressure can be used depending on what you need.
​
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
​​
This treatment is a gentle, yet powerful treatment using feather light touch to encourage the flow of lymph and eliminate waste and improve immune system function. A great treatment to choose if feeling run down or pre/post op.
