Collective Activities 

We offer two types of relaxation methods which are done as a group:

Creative Visualization

This is a seated group session where the therapist will talk you through a visualization that will help you to relax i.e. a garden walk.

With practise you will be able to create your own haven of peace by taking yourself off to your special place whenever you need to.

Relaxation Tape

In this case a cassette tape is played and the commentary on it is designed to make you a visualisation request designed to make you relax.

Individual Relaxation Sessions

Highly qualified and experienced complementary therapists offer the following range of relaxation sessions:

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is a gentle therapy using pure essential oils extracted from plants. The massage can relax both the body and the mind. 

You will need to remove clothes from whichever part of the body you have chosen and lie down on a couch, or at a table where we have a comfortable stand.

Reflexology

The rationale behind reflexology is that the whole body is reflected in the feet,  with various parts of the feet corresponding to particular parts of the body.
During a reflexology session you will lie down or be seated comfortably and will need to remove shoes and socks. The therapist will give a very gentle and rhythmic foot massage which may help to relieve tension and promote relaxation and a feeling of well-being

Reiki

Reiki is an Eastern technique of energy which is passed through the position of the hands gently touching various parts of the body starting with the head and then working down the front of the body, finishing on the feet. You will be in any position that is comfortable to you, either seated or lying down, fully clothed
It may help to bring the body and emotions to work together in harmony in our stressful lives and promotes natural self-healing

NO HANDS massage

This is a “gentle giant” of massage. Instead of the hands, the soft surfaces of the forearm is used.  This covers a much wider area of the body creating a continuous, almost hypnotic, soft flow. This lets the mind and body relax at a deep level, thereby encouraging the whole self to balance its energies
