There is evidence to suggest that using the feet to treat the whole person for healing purposes was practiced in ancient Egypt, India and china. Over the last few centuries, in the West, the knowledge that pressure applied to one part of the body can affect another part, developed into the reflexology that we know today. In the 1930s, Eunice Ingham mapped out areas on the feet and hands which correspond to the body’s organs and systems, this map forms the basis for most modern methods now practiced.
Reflexology is safe and gentle, by applying ‘comfortable’ precision pressure to reflex points, the body’s own healing ability is strengthened. I use relaxing foot massage and also Advanced Reflexology Techniques (ART) for specific treatments, individually designed for each person. By stimulating parts of the foot, the body is encouraged to function efficiently, this helps to unblock congested energy, improve circulation, eliminate toxins and ease tension promoting balance and harmony.
Indian Head MassageIn our increasingly pressured environment, tension can gradually build up in the neck and shoulders, causing headaches, especially with the prolonged use of computers. Indian Head Massage is a very effective therapy useful for relaxing muscles and unwinding in a short space of time. Based on the ancient healing system of Ayurveda, treatments increase mental clarity and revitalize energy levels.
Treatments are calming and soothing with a flowing sequence of massage techniques working on the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp, ears and face while remaining fully clothed.
Single treatments and on-going sessions can also be beneficial for eyestrain, sinusitis, concentration levels and anxiety. Used regularly, Indian Head Massage is ideal for maintaining general wellbeing and especially helpful for those occasions when feeling particularly stressed.
