Stress Relief –  Therapeutic Massage – Deep Tissue – Sports Massage

We blend many international therapies to formulate the best treatment plan for each person; here are a few techniques we offer;

Acupressure-temple

Acupressure

Using medium pressure thumb pressure.  Various Acupressure points are held for 10-30 seconds to bring much faster muscle relief and unblocks the meridians which may have caused the imbalance in the first place.  A great benefit of Acupressure is that it continues working it’s magic for 24-48 hours after the massage session.

massage-handsDeep Tissue Massage / Sports Massage

A style of massage that uses stronger pressure; slow, deep strokes; and friction across the muscle grain to release chronic muscle tension.  We, having experienced over 11 years in practise, do not subscribe to the belief that ‘Harder is Better’.

We constantly communicate with the client on how the pressure feels and employ respectful techniques so that deeper relief is achieved without excessive and unnecessary pain.


Pregnancy Massage / Acupressure Pregnancy Massage

pregnancy-massagePersonalised Pregnancy Massage

Throughout all terms of pregnancy, massage can bring you enormous benefit.
Pregnancy massage greatly helps reduce and even reverse:

~ Headaches and Migraines
~ Painful Pelvis and hips

We can combine our pregnancy massage with energy balancing for the ultimate in strength in body-mind-emotion

Pregnancy Acupressure Massage

Many pregnancies go loner than 40 weeks in length, which is often the natural process, especially if it is the first pregnancy

However, if the later stages of pregnancy are severely uncomfortable and you are past your ‘due date’ then you can do something about it.

When trained in pregnancy massage, therapists are taught to keep away from certain Acupressure points which activate the uterus … but in Pregnancy Acupressure Massage

we specifically stimulate these points in order to promote the start of the birthing process.  Pregnancy Acupressure Massage is a beautiful blend of massage therapy and acupressure to deeply release all tension and stimulate the body and uterus to bring about labour within the following 24 – 48 hours.

Stef’s Energy Healing / Balancing session

(Clears the body’s energetic blocks, and ‘negative’ energy)

It’s designed to shift pain, suffering, anger, fear, anxiety, overwhelming stress, feeling directionless, non-coping, powerlessness and negative beliefs passed on from others and from our own experiences which reside in many levels of our energy fields around our body.

Healing carries away the junk which we’ve accumulated over the years. ~ Emotional junk we just don’t need!  Then you can be free to redecorate with the new ‘mod-cons’ of freedom and fresh ideas to take you boldly forward.

Stef balances many energetic parts of the body,  balances and activates chakras, and often passes on channelled guidance which can help alot bringing understanding or clarity to a situation.   Ease  ~  Flow  ~  Abundance

Chakra Activation (and balancing)

candlelight1

When one (or more) of the chakra is blocked and the energy does not flow harmoniously through them, or if they are over active ~ it can result in imbalance that is manifested in areas of life.

Each chakra is expressed on the physical body in one of the endocrine glands.

These nerves and hormones regulate physical and emotional processes in the body.

Stef holds some of the main Chakra points gently and helps to promote or dampen their processes – depending what is needed, leaving you feeling lighter, calmer and more balanced.
