Our Therapies Include
Reflexology
Emphasises care of the whole person by recognising the body’s unique capacity for self-healing. The structure and function of the whole body is mirrored in the feet, which are manipulated and massaged to encourage relaxation and eases tension by encouraging the free flow of energy, to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. A treatment will take approximately 45 minutes.
Reiki
Pronounced RAY-KEY, is Japanese working meaning “Universal Life Energy” and is a natural and holistic way of treating, by the gentle laying on of hands in a number of key positions on the body. You remain fully clothed throughout. When the energy is channelled through the hands of the therapist to the recipient, it activates the body’s natural ability to heal itself. A treatment can take up to 45 minutes.
Hopi Ear Candle Therapy
A hollow beeswax candle is placed in the entrance to the ear and lit. Each ear is treated separately. The treatment is enhanced by the inclusion of a full facial lymphatic drainage massage and will last for approximately 1 hour. The treatment induces a pleasant feeling of warmth and a balance of pressure in the ears, forehead and sinuses and is very soothing and helpful for earache, glue-ear, ear noise, catarrh, migraines, sinusitis, neuralgia and rhinitis. Only BIOSUN candles are used, as illustrated, which are medical products class 11a according to medical device directive 93/42/EEC and supplied by Revital Ltd (See www.revital.co.uk).
Holistic Massage
This therapy is designed to aid relaxation, ease tension, relieve stress and promote a general state of well being through massage and manipulation of the muscular system. During the treatment towels will be used to ensure your modesty. Oils, creams or talc will be used during the massage to help nourish the skin and allow a fluid free flowing massage. A full body treatment may take up to an hour. A back, shoulder and neck massage will last for 30 minutes.
Indian Head

A full body treatment can take up to 90 minutes.
Acupuncture
