DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE: This treatment concentrates on releasing areas of tension in the body. Firm pressure and ‘no hands’ massage strokes are used to free tight muscles and increase mobility. The shoulders, back and gluteal areas are common areas benefiting from deep tissue work. This type of massage can be quite vigorous and it may take a few sessions to achieve results.
HOLISTIC RELAXING MASSAGE: Is fantastic for both alleviating and preventing stress. During the massage, you are encouraged to ‘let go’ mentally and physically, to achieve a state of deep relaxation. Stretching, pulsing work and energetic healing are incorporated into the treatment.
INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE: An ancient therapy which focuses on the head, face, neck, shoulders, arms and hands. It may be undertaken with or without oil. As well as being wonderfully relaxing, Indian Head massage has found to have beneficial effects on the following conditions:
* Headaches
* Improved circulation of head and scalp
* Hair loss
* Poor sleep patterns
* Stress
HOT STONE MASSAGE: This is a profoundly relaxing therapy which combines massage techniques with the warmth and healing properties of heated volcanic stones.
ON-SITE SEATED CHAIR MASSAGE: Is undertaken fully clothed, without oil, using a specially designed portable massage chair. Attention is focussed on the back, neck, shoulders, arms and hands. The treatment comprises massage strokes to relieve tense muscles; stretch work and acupressure techniques to stimulate the energy flow along the body’s meridians (‘energy lines’). This is the perfect therapy for people who are short of time or who don’t wish to disrobe during massage.
BENEFITS IN THE WORKPLACE: On-site seated chair massage has substantial benefits for both employee and employer alike:
* It is excellent for relieving aches and pains associated with prolonged computer use
* It is good for headaches
* It can assist in preventing RSI conditions eg hands, wrists and arms
* It both relaxes and re-invigorates the employee to restore mental clarity and enhance overall well-being.
* It offers a ‘stress-break’ during normal hours, with minimal disruption, since it requires a small amount of work space. Sessions are typically 20-30 minutes in length.
* It may be offered to employees as an attractive element of their welfare/benefits package, to which employers contribute in full or in part.
* It encourages productivity, morale and fosters company loyalty. It is an effective way for employers to actively care for their employees’ health.
