Indian Head Massage

Indian Head Massage is primarily a stress-relieving and rejuvenating treatment, and is adapted from traditional massage performed in India between mother and daughter.  It concentrates on areas vulnerable to everyday areas of tension;  shoulders, upper arms, neck, head, face, jaw and ears. 

Increasing blood flow (therefore oxygen) and lymphatic flow, promoting healing, circulation, ease from discomfort and stress, and elimination of toxins, it also relaxes muscles and nerves, aiding mobility and relaxation. 

Great for clearing tension headaches, mental fatigue, stress and anxiety, therefore encouraging clearer thinking, and a feeling of calm.  It is also beneficial to hair and skin condition and growth, encouraging cell regeneration. 

This treatment can either be done over clothes, or with delicious organic aromatherapy oils used on the skin and scalp. 

An Indian Head Massage treatment can be combined with Reiki for the ultimate rejuvenating treatment.

Thai Foot Massage

Thai Foot Massage incorporates aspects of traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean foot and leg massage.  There are also elements of Shiatsu, yoga and reflexology in this therapy.  It includes stretching, and use of reflex points and massage that follows the “Sen” energy lines, which stimulate the internal organs. 

It improves circulation, stimulates lymphatic drainage and removal of toxins, increases oxygen, reduces stiffness and improves flexibility.  Great for helping to boost the immune system, reduce stress, mental tiredness and insomnia, as well as reducing the risk of arthritis or rheumatism in the foot. 

Our feet deserve some care and attention!  They are so often “forgotten”, yet they are our body’s foundations, our “roots”, that make most contact with the earth and keep us grounded.  The hands are also included in this massage.

Organic moisturising and nourishing balm is used for the massage on the feet and hands to nourish and soothe during this treatment. 

Greatly relaxing, the outcome is generally a feeling of balance, and deep calm. A Thai Foot Massage treatment can be combined with Reiki for the ultimate relaxation treatment.

Reiki

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese words, Rei (universal) and Ki (lifeforce energy).  The Chinese refer to this energy as Chi, and in Hindi the word is prana, meaning "breath of life", used in yoga ("pranayama"). A powerful yet gentle, non-invasive and natural therapy, Reiki energy flows from the hands of the therapist (placed gently on, or near the body).  It can have a very positive effect on many levels: physical, mental, emotional and even spiritual, by clearing energy “blockages”. 

Reiki supports a natural, healthy lifestyle. It cannot cause harm, is safe for all, and can be useful even before conception to help to reduce anxiety and promote a balanced and positive personal energy.

During pregnancy, Reiki can ease any symptoms that may be causing discomfort; general aches and pains, tension and anxiety, nausea, tiredness, insomnia, digestion problems, water retention, circulation problems, hormonal ups and downs, anxiety etc. 

It can help by restoring balance, on a physical as well as emotional level, so can be of particular help as labour approaches.  

During the early weeks and months following the arrival of your baby, Reiki is especially useful, helping to heal the body, also renewing and re-balancing the body's energies.  This in turn can help with breastfeeding and bonding, reduce the risk of postnatal depression, and generally ease the transition into motherhood. 

Babies can greatly benefit from Reiki, especially if they are colicy or had a traumatic birth.

A treatment given to you and your baby at the same time can be a truly wonderful experience, and enhance the bond between you.

Skincare

Natural, organic products are especially important to use before, during and after pregnancy, as chemicals used in many conventional products can cause harmful toxins to build up in your body (and therefore your baby's).    I recommend use of skincare for yourself and your baby which is as natural as possible, and use Neals Yard Remedies for the therapies I offer. 

Organic Neals Yard Remedies are gently effective products that use high quality, natural ingredients including essential oils, and are particularly helpful and wonderfully indulgent to use during pregnancy and as a new mum.                                             

Mini facials can be performed as a stand-alone taster treatment or demonstration at a NYROrganics Party, or combined with massage/reiki for an extremely relaxing and nurturing treatment.  

Products are available to suit every skin type, are safe during pregnancy, and there is also a high quality and wonderful range of skincare products for your baby (including massage oil, barrier cream, baby bath, powder etc, as well as gift packs).   Some products are particurly helpful before, during and following labour. (Please ask if you would like more information on this).

As an NYROrganics Consultant, I not only use these lovely products for treatments, but can demonstrate and order them for you.  Please contact me for more details on holding a party or individually ordering through me; alternatively you can buy direct by clicking here.

Pamper Parties / Taster Events

Popular for baby showers, antenatal reunions or a mother's day pamper session, sharing the relaxation with a well-deserving group of friends and family makes for an enjoyable get together.


Taster treatments available are: Mini-facials (using Neals Yard Remedies), Indian Head, shoulder and hand/foot massage and Reiki.                    
                                                                                                                           I can offer taster treatments to small private groups, or as one therapist at a bigger event.
