Swedish Body Massage
Swedish body massage has been described as “the manipulation of the soft tissue for therapeutic purposes”.
Swedish massage is an aid to circulation, which can help to improve the flexibility of joints, increasing their range of motion. Muscle tone is often improved as a result, with waste products present in the muscles being eliminated.
Increased circulation also delivers an increased oxygen supply to the cells of the body; this can speed up metabolism and lead to healthier cell function.

Improved range of motion
Increased circulation
Mental and physical relaxation
Lymphatic drainage
Speedier healing rate from injury
Loosening of tight muscles

Reflexology
In the feet are reflex areas corresponding to all parts of the body and these areas are arranged in such a way as to form a map of the body in the feet. Thus, it becomes possible to treat the body as a whole, allowing not only symptoms to be treated but also their causes.
A reflexologist uses a very specific method using thumb and fingers to apply gentle, controlled pressure to the reflexes of the feet. By so doing, muscle tensions are relaxed, allowing the body to fall into a deep state of relaxation, clearing blocked energy channels. Toxins are released and circulation is stimulated.
As energy is able to flow more freely around the body, the functioning of the body’s systems is optimised, encouraging the body to heal itself.
Reflexology has been reported to be beneficial with the following conditions:
Improves blood flow
Enhances medical care
Benefits mental health
Headaches and tension
Muscular aches & pains
