The Benefits of Massage Therapy in the Elderly!
Touch -the medicine that never ages!
According to Hernandez-Reif et al., 2001).
As people grow older, touch often disappears from their daily life, yet the need for it never does! Therapeutic touch lowers blood pressure, improves sleep, and reduces anxiety in older adults.
It also reconnects them to their body, a body they may have stopped trusting after years of pain or limitation.
Massage in elderly care isn’t indulgence, it’communication.
It says: “You’re still here. You still matter.”and that's a message every nervous system understands to book an appointment contact Jenny on surrealholistictherapy.com / 07758754317 or click onto the booking link

November is Diabetes Month
As we observe National Diabetes Month, reflexology is a therapeutic practice that has been gaining recognition for its potential benefits in diabetes management. Three Benefits of Reflexology for Diabetes: 1. Improved Blood Circulation: By stimulating reflex points, reflexology may enhance blood circulation, promoting better oxygenation and nutrient delivery to cells. Improved circulation is especially crucial for individuals with diabetes, as it helps prevent complications related to poor blood flow. 2. Stress Reduction and Relaxation: Chronic stress can significantly impact blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes. Reflexology is known for its ability to induce relaxation and reduce stress. By targeting stress points on the feet, reflexology may help regulate stress hormones, contributing to better blood sugar control. 3. Nerve Function Stimulation: Diabetes often affects nerve function, leading to neuropathy and other complications. Reflexology aims to stimulate nerve endings in the feet, potentially promoting better nerve function. Integrating reflexology into a diabetes management plan can provide a holistic approach to addressing both the physical and emotional aspects of the condition. Explore the potential benefits of reflexology as a complementary therapy to enhance their health and quality of life.

6 Reasons why men should have Facials
Facials offer numerous benefits for men, including clearer skin, relaxation, and improved overall skin health, making them an essential part of a grooming routine.
Key Benefits of Facials for Men
Clearer Skin-Facials help to remove dirt,oil, and toxins that regular washing may miss, preventing breakouts of spots and blackheads. They can also address specific skin issues like acne and razor burn, leading to a clearer complexion.
Youthful Appearance- Regular facials can reduce signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines, by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin elasticity.
Smoother Skin-The deep cleansing and exfoliation involved in facials leave the skin feeling softer and smoother, enhancing its texture.
Improved Circulation-Facial massages included in many treatments can enhance blood circulation, promoting a healthy glow and relaxation.
Stress Relief- Facials provide a relaxing experience that can help reduce stress levels, contributing to an overall well-being.
Tailored Treatments-Facials for men are specifically designed to address the unique needs of their skin, which tends to be thicker and oilier. Treatments often include techniques like steaming and extraction to effectively clean out the pores.
Environmental Protection- Facials can help protect the skin from environmental stressors such as pollution and UV rays, making the skin more resilient.
Incorporating facials into a man's grooming routine can significantly enhance skin health and appearance while providing a much-needed opportunity for relaxation. Regular treatments are recommended for optimal results, typically every 4 to 6 weeks, to maintain healthy, vibrant skin.

The Benefits of Deep Tissue Trigger and Point Massage
Deep tissue trigger and point massage is a therapeutic technique that targets deeper muscle layers and specific muscle knots to relieve tension, pain, and improve overall well-being.
What is Deep Tissue Massage?
Deep tissue massage that focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue.
It is particularly effective for individuals experiencing chronic pain, muscle tension, or stiffness. The therapist uses slow, firm pressure( called compression) to break down adhesions and release tension that has built up over time. This technique is beneficial for conditions such as back ache , arthritis, and sports injuries, as it enhances circulation, reduces inflammation, and promotes healing.
What is Trigger Point Therapy?
Trigger point therapy is a specialised technique that targets specific areas of muscle tightness, known as trigger points or muscle knots. These knots can cause referred pain in other areas of the body. The therapy involves applying direct pressure to these points to release tension, improve blood flow, and reduce pain. This method is particularly effective for individuals with persistent, localised discomfort that may not respond well to general massage techniques.
Benefits of Deep Tissue Trigger Point Massage
Pain Relief: Both techniques are effective in alleviating chronic pain and discomfort by addressing the root causes of muscle tension.
Improved Flexibility: By releasing tightness in muscles, tendons, and ligaments, these therapies enhance overall flexibility and range of motion.
Enhanced Circulation: Improved blood flow helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, promoting recovery and reducing inflammation.
Stress Reduction: These therapies can also have calming effects on the nervous system, helping to alleviate stress and anxiety.
