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
