Complementary Therapies are designed to treat the whole person by assisting the body's natural ability to balance, regulate, heal and maintain itself. This in turn enables us to experience feelings of wellness that can have long term benefits on our physical and mental well being. I am a fully qualified and registered Clinical Aromatherapist specialising in Aromatherapy, Remedial Massage, Relaxing and Japanese Facial Massage, Reflexology, Indian Head Massage and On-Site Massage. I have a BA(Hons) Degree and a Diploma and I am a Member of the International Federation of Professional Aromatherapists (IFPA). All touch therapies can reduce stress, generalised anxiety and depression and help relieve chronic conditions such as IBS, Chrons, Fibromyalgia, ME, Insomnia, Migraine, Cluster Headaches, Lymphoedema, Arthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Back, Neck Pain. Remedial Massage is excellent for reducing pain associated with injuries including sprains, strains and any injury where the skin is intact, as it helps remove blockages, reduces scar tissue and adhesions and speeds up recovery and encourages a more complete healing. Preventative Maintenance Massage, as the saying goes prevention is better than cure! Having regular massage can be an effective addition to a training schedule. So if you are a runner or exercising regularly this can help improve performance and prevent injury. Aromatherapy uses specific essential oils for their therapeutic properties the oils improve the body's natural functioning. They can assist with massage with anti inflammatory, analgesic and sedative properties or uplifting if you feel low and stressed. I make bespoke creams and oils blends for ailments from dry skin to acne, chronic neck pain to "no" sleep. I make pulse point roller balls for an instant hit with concentration or travel sickness. I also blend room sprays for homes and offices to help keep an environment healthy too. Reflexology is a system of treatment that works on the principle that specific areas of the feet (reflex points) correspond to the different areas of the body. Pressure massage of the reflexes brings about healthy changes in the corresponding organs and systems. The treatment is relaxing (not painful) and helps to release stress balancing the whole body. Japanese facial massage is a combination of eastern and western techniques helping to release the muscles in the shoulders, neck and face. This in turn releases the tension from the face reducing fine lines and wrinkles. You look and feel rejuvenated with the shiatsu massage too, its a whole body workout without getting undressed. Indian Head Massage concentrates on the upper back, shoulders, neck and scalp and is traditionally performed when you are sat up, but if you prefer you can lie down and relax fully too. The scalp work really improves hair growth and condition due to increased circulation. Essential Oils are added to the treatment to really make it a bespoke experience. You can follow me on twitter
