What treatments are there?
REIKI
Reiki is a simple technique for the transference of healing energy through
the hands for treatment of self and others. Reiki is a gentle but powerful
‘hands on’ treatment using universal energy, with hands held over the head
and body in a sequence of positions called Chakra points. Reiki can promote
relaxing of the body, balancing the emotions, clearing the mind, reducing
stress and anxiety, increasing vitality and nurturing wellbeing. Session Time: 1hour
INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE
Massage of the shoulders, neck, scalp and face. The massage is received
fully clothed, seated in a chair or therapy couch and concentrates on
the easing upper body tension; it is very effective for the relief of
stress and tension helping to achieve balance.
The receiver benefits from an uplifting experience, improved circulation,
joint mobility and muscle tone, relaxation and a feeling of peace and
well-being. Particular oils may be used to enhance the massage, however
this is optional. Session Time 30 mins
REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology is a relaxation and re-balancing therapy, which has been used
for thousands of years. Originating in Ancient Egypt, it aims to relax
you and promote self healing by applying pressure to the feet and hands.
It is based on the belief that each part of the foot corresponds to a
specific part of the Body. These areas are called REFLEX POINTS and by
gentle massage the Reflexologist is able to stimulate circulation and
improve nerve pathways to specific parts of the body. Reflexology helps
the body to become balanced by clearing energy blocks and removing toxins,
therefore giving the receiver a feeling of well-being. Session Time 30 mins
COLOUR THERAPY AND AURA CLEANSING
Colour is a natural medicine which can bring many facets of the body and
life of a person into balance. All our systems require various energies
to function and the colours we see are representative of each different
energies. Each colour holds different curative abilities and repair; so
can be used to support diagnosis, to bring easement of symptoms and to
restore balance and harmony. For instance blue is known for its cooling
effects, so in colour therapy blue can be used to lower anxiety and stress,
high blood pressure etc. Each session will give priority to one or more
of the energy accumulator points or systems, recharging with methodologies
including direct energy transfer, spectrum glasses and lights.
THE AURA
Our nerves, brain, heart each run on electrical impulses discharged
regularly by the body. The body discharges the residue of electrical
impulses around every 6 seconds. This makes up the aura, and a residue
of every process is stored upon its edge. We are therefore continuously
surrounded by this electrical atmosphere known as the aura.
In sessions an aura wipe is given at different distances from the body,
which whilst administering help in respect of health conditions, thus
providing an uplifting or relaxing experience. Session Time 1hour
