INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE
Indian head massage, also known as champissage, is a treatment that focuses on massaging acupressure points along the head, neck, and shoulders, often using circular massage strokes to improve hair and scalp condition.
PRE AND POST NATAL MASSAGE
A pregnancy massage is a specially adapted gentle and soothing massage tailored specifically for the mother-to-be. As a term, ‘pregnancy massage’ applies to any hands-on massage treatment for a woman during her pregnancy. It can therefore vary enormously in terms of what it consists of. However, for many women, pregnancy massage benefits include easing aches and pains, as well as facilitating relaxation and preparation for labour.
CUPPING THERAPY
Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.
The red marks are a result of the blood being pulled into that area. The darker the mark, the more stagnant fluids (toxins, blood and lymph) were dredged up during treatment. The marks last anywhere from a few hours to several days. The more often you receive cupping for the same issue, the lighter the marks will be.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage
Post Operative
​
When the body suffers from trauma, cells in the areas of the injury that causes the trauma will release chemicals that will affect the absorbency of blood vessels. For example, surgery, although controlled, causes trauma.
Uncontrolled swelling could create other complications, such as small pockets of fluid becoming trapped (‘serum’) and infection.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage helps by increasing the rhythmic contractions of the lymph vessels and stimulating the lymph nodes to redirect diverted lymphatic fluid.
​
Classic LDM
This treatment is a gentle non invasive way to stimulate the natural lymphatic system, this can help reduce water retention, swelling and inflammation whilst promoting healing, detoxifying the body and boosting the immune system.
This massage can be used to help clients suffering from lymphoedema, fibromyalgia and many other conditions.
