Classic Massage Therapies
Massage Therapy helps to reduce stress, create relaxation, maintain healthy joints, decrease anxiety, improve circulation, refine skin tone & bring you a better sense of well-being.
Classic Swedish Massage
The well known and popular Swedish Massage, also known as a Classic Massage, is a full body massage treatment that applies circular and relaxing pressure combined with movement of the joints.
Cicely will apply various techniques such as effleurage (long, sweeping strokes) petrissage (muscle kneading and rolling), tapotement (rhythmic tapping) and friction directed towards the heart to increase lymph and circulation flow.
Swedish Massage helps the body to heal itself by physically manipulating and stimulating the body’s circulatory and lymphatic systems. This works to energise and help eliminate toxins in the body, and of course through Swedish massage, a high level of relaxation can often be achieved.
Aromatherapy Massage
We use organic essential oils in our Aromatherapy Massage to promote bodily balance and health. The essential oils are absorbed by your skin during the massage as well as inhaled through the nose affecting both the mind and body.
Similar to our Swedish Massage, this massage uses light to medium pressure and focuses on kneading and stretching your muscles to relieve muscle stress and built up tension.
The essential oils used influence the nervous system and once massaged into your skin are absorbed directly into the blood vessels.
Depending on the essential oils you choose, our Aromatherapy Massage can have several benefits such as calming, uplifting, energising and decongesting your body, and your mind. Essential oils can purify the blood, act on the heart and also influence your breathing rate. Combined with massage, the oils can relieve you from headache, insomnia, digestive disorders, premenstrual syndrome and back pain.
Indian Head Massage
Indian head massage, also know as Champissage, is an ancient holistic treatment based on the ancient Ayurveda healing system. It has been practiced in India for over a thousand years. Originally, it was used to improve hair and scalp conditions by focusing the massage on the head, neck, and shoulders. Using acupressure massage, it aims to rebalance the natural energy of the body.
The areas being massaged uses firm but gentle, rhythmic movements that involve acupressure points called Marma points. Traditionally, Ayurvedic oils were used in this massage. However in modern times the use of oils has become optional.
Indian head massage is excellent in providing relief from the stress and tension of everyday life. The technique uses controlled rhythmic movements and has a strong effect on the mind, body and spirit. It stimulates and balances what Ayurvedic philosophy calls the Chakra, in this case the higher Chakra’s; crown, third eye and throat. The Chakra is our body’s natural energy centres that we need to keep open and flowing. Because the massage works on the neck and shoulders, physical and mental tension is almost instantly relieved.
No Hands Massage
No Hands Massage is deep, releasing, rejeuvenating and nourishing. Devised over 20 years by Gerry Pyves, No Hands Massage is a therapeutic treatment described as 'The Gentle Giant of Massage'.
The technique involves using the surfaces of the arms. This results in a deep and relaxing massage, leveraging different weight and pressures over larger surface areas of the body. No Hands Massage works on the physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual levels and can be so powerful that you can feel the effects long after the session has finished.
The massage can be either a full body treatment or working on specific areas depending on the clients requirements.
Lymphatic Detox &
Anti-cellulite Massage
Although nutritional disorders, genetics and many other reasons can cause cellulite, the main reason that cellulite develops is poor circulation. It is caused by problems with blood and lymph circulation and increased toxins in fat tissues.
Anti-cellulite massage is a massage method which is applied in order to reduce and eliminate cellulite and bring the skin to healthy state. This treatment improves blood and lymph circulation and helps fill tissues with purifying oxygen.
