Our team of therapists that we call on to deliver your treatments

The treatments they offer

Dynamic Detox Massage

The intention of this treatment is releasing and relaxing and will help you to unwind from the stresses and strains you carry around. 
It will focus on the muscle groups that take the strain in your working life. This treatment covers the back, shoulders and limbs.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £75

Shiatsu Massage

Shiatsu is given fully clothed on a soft futon on the floor. In Shiatsu we use gentle pressure, stretches, holding, joint mobilizations and rocking. This aspect of the treatment can be similar to massage however Shiatsu also works with the energetic condition of the body to release and restore the flow of Qi (or energy) through meridians (or channels) that run throughout your body. Helping to re-energise weak areas, relax tension and help the body to work harmoniously.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £75

Aromatherapy

This treatment uses the subtle benefits of aromatherapy oils to help you and your body with the detox process, bringing balance and gentle support when you feel more delicate or when you prefer a softer touch. This treatment covers the back, shoulders, head and limbs, and involves slower and lighter stroking movements, gentle pressure on pressure points.

Treatment - 1.5 hr - Cost: £110

La Stone - Hot Stone Massage

The La Stone® Treatment is about 60% heated and cooled stones, & 40% energy work, providing healing on multiple levels. Alternation of heated and chilled stones applied to the body in various ways, brings relief to stiff and sore muscles, and balance the body's energy. This results in the alleviation of chronic and acute problems - an hour and a half of LaStone has serious wow-factor

Facial Massage

A luscious and pampering treatment, using the Australian Miessence skin care range which is 100 % organic, based on Aloe Vera, Jojoba, essential oils and herbal extracts. The facial treatment involves a facial massage, a three-step cleansing routine (cleanse, exfoliant, mask), followed by conditioning and moisturising applications. This facial is the favourite of many of our returning customers.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £80

Top & Toe Treatment

Combines the benefits of a neck and shoulder massage, with the relaxing and balancing qualities of a reflexology treatment. 
he two treatments from which this is drawn are quite different, and complimentary. This treatment aims to give you the best of both of these worlds in just half an hour.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £75

Reflexology Treatment

This treatment of the feet is an excellent balancer to all the bodily functions and organs, as well as being a channel for emotional release and integration. I would recommend it specifically for people with ongoing energetic conditions such as hormone imbalance, or emotionally-sensitive conditions such as IBS. For those who feel shy and held back regarding full body treatments, reflexology is a wonderful alternative. Reflexology works on the feet only. 

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £75

Abdominal Massage

This treatment will reconnect you to your abdomen - to the physical and emotional tensions which can lead to digestive symptoms, hormone imbalances and emotional disconnection. I work with what each person needs. It will always leave your abdomen feeling more open and relaxed and will help with your colonics. It is given fully clothed, perfect if you are shy of your body.

Treatment - 1hr - £75

Lymphatic Detox Massage

A lymphatic massage helps to move stagnant tissue fluids towards the lymph nodes. Shedding toxins from fat deposits under the skin around tummy & thighs, and draining areas of water retention. This is achieved through gentle percussion, pulsing strokes and pumping motions towards the lymph nodes in your body. The treatment covers the whole body.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £75

Thai Yoga Massage

Thai massage involves stretches, deep pressures on trigger points and passive yoga postures that help to release muscle imbalance, fascia constraints and postural patterns. It brings flexibility and opens the body and the breath, whilst strengthening body posture. Like Shiatsu it is performed on a futon on the floor while you are comfortably dressed. You can choose for a 1.5 hour session which is traditional, or a shortened 1 hour session.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £70, 1½ hr £110 

Postural Integration Therapy

This uses massage techniques, postural body images and exercises to take home with you, to create lasting postural change for every day actions such as walking, sitting, bending and lifting. As your body becomes more integrated, it can accept and work with gravity rather than constantly fighting, to overcome it. Anyone experiencing stiffness, strain and pain in muscles and joints, can benefit from this treatment.

Treatment - 1 hr - Cost: £75

Body De-armouring Massage

During these sessions we work foundationally with the soft and deep tissues, joints and fascia, in the way that a great massage loosens and opens up the body.

At the same time we explicitly bring our attention to known challenges, areas of psycho-emotional difficulty, or residual trauma from past experience. Listening to the body’s cues we gently titrate between the area of difficulty and the safe, comfortable pleasure states, going no further than what feels appropriate and beneficial to you in any given moment.

Together we draw the inherent ease and capacity of your true nature to the forefront of your body’s experience and the nervous system re-familiarises itself with vitality, bliss and deep relaxation.

Over time, as the body comes to know these states as accessible, it learns to trust itself and naturally begins to lean further into the adventure life has to offer.

Note: Come with a clear sentence or a few key words that express how you would feel about a challenge you have, and how you would feel without it.

Treatment - 90 mins - Cost: £120
