AROMATHERAPY: Initially, your therapist will undertake a full consultation to include questions about your general health, medical history and emotional wellbeing. Essential oils will be chosen uniquely for your situation and your therapist will only expose the area of the body being treated. Often, your therapist will offer you a therapeutic blend of essential oils to take home to use between treatments. This helps to give your treatment continuity and can speed the sense of wellbeing.
INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE: The treatment is 30-40 minutes in duration and can be conducted fully clothed in the upright position seated on a chair. It can also be done with or without the use of oil, but if so, top layers of clothing will need to be removed. Modesty is observed at all times.
REIKI: Reiki treatments are given by the practitioner placing hands on and above your body in a number of positions, allowing free flow of the universal life force energy, while you lie on a couch, fully clothed. Reiki naturally flows to the area where it is most needed and no direction by the practitioner is necessary for the energy to work accurately. You will always receive the correct amount of energy to bring about the necessary changes to restore balance within. You can expect to experience a state of deep relaxation and often warmth, coolness, tingling or gentle vibrations.
EAR CANDLING: This relaxing treatment takes approximately 40 minutes. You will be asked to lie down on one side and a candle is placed inside the ear canal. The candles are made of linen or cotton impregnated with beeswax, sage, St John’s wort, roman chamomile, vitamin A and honey extracts, all of which have therapeutic healing properties. Once in position, the candle is lit and a gentle suction creates a vacuum in the ear canal. It’s very common to hear a cracking sound. This is nothing to worry about, it’s simply the effect of the change in pressure as the eardrum and inner ear are gently massaged. Ear wax is softened and loosened through the action of the candles and may work its way out of the ear in the 48 hours or so following treatment. This may cause a temporary slight deafness and is quite normal. A treatment is usually completed with facial lymphatic drainage massage and acupressure to enhance the effect of the candles. This is a powerful, soothing and relaxing treatment. Chronic conditions may require several treatments and we recommend three sessions as the optimum treatment plan. Ear candling is not suitable for clients with certain ear-related problems for example, perforated eardrums. Your therapist will always screen potential clients for contraindications.
