Holistic Massage

TOUCH is a basic human instinct and it has the power to comfort and reassure on many levels.  It can relax the body, calm the mind and encourage healing and well-being.

MASSAGE is one of the oldest therapies in the world - it has been recorded in China as far back as 3000 BC.  Holistic Massage considers the whole person, not just the symptoms or condition, and the strokes are based on Swedish Massage.  Massage works on two levels, physiological (relating to the physical structure of the body) and psychological (relating to the mind).

Some of the benefits of massage are:

• improve skin tone and elasticity
• improve circulation 
• relieve muscle fatigue, soreness and stiffness
• relieve tired stiff joints
• boost imune system
• encourage sleep and relieve insomnia
• lower high blood pressure
• relax the body and mind - reducing tension, anxiety and its effects
• increase energy 

Hot Stone Massage

Hot stones have been used by many ancient cultures to aid healing or in rituals.  In Hawaii the Kahunas used lava stones for healing, while in Russia it is traditional to use hot stones to line the bottoms of their bath tubs and lie on them. 

Modern hot stone massage originated in 1993 in Tuscon, Arizona.  It has since developed into different forms of treatment and it is one of the most popular treatments in spas and clinics around the world.  Once a client receives a Hot Stone Massage they say that they will not return to receiving a "normal" massage!  Hot Stone Massage is incredibly relaxing.  It works on a deeper level and the recipient feels like he / she is in a meditative state.  Heat penetrates deep into the tissues - one stroke with the stones equates to seven with the hand.

Hawaiian Style Flowing Massage

Hawaiian Style Flowing Massage is a unique treatment.  I don't perform traditional Hawaiian Massage but a style that incorporates the movement of the traditional Lomi Lomi.  This form of massage is performed using the forearms, upper arms and elbows.  It is a deep pressure massage but at the same time it is very relaxing.  The treatment is very dynamic - during it you will be "pulled" and "stretched" and all your stresses will simply melt away. 

Only best quality, original Monoi de Tahiti oil is used during the treatment.  You must try this massage - it's bliss!
