HOT AND COLD STONE MASSAGE
Hot Stone Massage
An enjoyable and healing Hot stone massage is one of the best ways to take a break and is seen by a lot of people not as a luxury, but as a necessity to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, also very beneficial for helping with injury.
Hot stone massage is a unique connection we experience with nature. It is the perfect treatment that is as enjoyable and healing for the client as it is for the practitioner. Hot stone massage is one of the best ways to take a break and is seen by a lot of people not as a luxury but as a necessity to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Hot stone massage therapy is a massage treatment that includes a normal massage, but the difference is that it uses hot stones of varying sizes. The hot stones are made from basalt volcanic rocks and they are smooth to touch. The stones are cleaned before and after every session with a sanitizing solution. I will start with a brief normal massage with their hands and they may apply some oil to the skin which is safe for nut allergies as grape seed oil is used. Next the stones will be warmed up using an electric device then cooling the temperate before applying them to your skin. Once the stones have been heated to a safe temperature, they will carefully place them on pressure or chakra areas of your body and allow them to rest while the massage continues giving and creating sensation of comfort and warmth. The direct heat relaxes muscle, allowing manipulation of a greater intensity than a regular massage.
In the case of muscular injury and inflammation, ie sports injury (you would need to ice the affected area) so cold marble stones are used. This creates a type of thermo therapeutic vascular gymnastics in the circulatory system to help the body detox and heal. The warmer stones expand the blood vessels, pushing blood and unwanted materials through the body. This is a seductive effect on the nervous system. The cold stones cause the blood vessels to contract, stimulating the nervous system and drawing blood and waste products along the body.
This ensures that every cell in the body receives more oxygen and nutrients while at the same time waste material is removed more effectively through the corresponding increase in the lymph flow. Not unlike changing the old oil and filter in your car for a newer filter and clean oil – a service for the body.
It is quite an experience to feel deeply relaxed, penetrating heat from the basalt stones alternating with the toning and refreshing coolness of the marble stones. The use of extremes of temperature has long been scientifically and medically proven to be of benefit to the body. Stone massage makes you feel deeply relaxed, allowing you to let go of all the stress that is held within your body. It is really an amazing experience to offer to the ones you love to too.
Studies show that stress is the number one root to a lot of diseases and disorders. Whether it’s from work, home or daily activities, the result is the same, and because we cannot run away from it, the only way is to deal with it and manage stress effectively. A hot stone, massage offers some relaxing time for your mind and does wonders in releasing muscle tension. Thus this is one of the best ways to relieve you of stress.

A brief history of Hopi Ear Candling
History of Thermal Auricular Therapy also known as Hopi Ear Candling which has been a very natural therapy stretching back in time used in ancient medicine for many years through many various civilisations where folk healers and the like from around the world used it in one form or another. The Ancient Greeks, it was believed used ear candles, initially probably for purifying, cleansing, and healing on a spiritual basis, then much later on a more physical basis. Shaman healers traditionally used ear candling, shown on ancient wall paintings that depicted them being used in rituals and healing ceremonies that illustrate the importance of these to the tribe.
Presently Hopi Ear Candling appears to have originated from the Indians of Native North and South America known as the hopi tribe also known as the 'peaceful people',with knowledge of healing and deep spirituality. This practice was then brought back to Europe from the Hopi Indians.Traditionally Hopi ear candles were used to cleanse the aura, to drive out negative energies and to enhance spiritual awareness. The Hopi ear candles are still made today on the basis of the old traditional formula originating from the Hopi Indians.
What are Hopi Ear Candles?
Hopi Ear Candles are specially designed hollow, funnel shaped tube like candles made of cotton, soaked in beeswax, honey and impregnated with essential oils such as lavender etc. using all natural materials.
What happens during a Hopi Ear Candling session?
The client lays comfortable on the coach with your head supported by a pillow. The lit candle is carefully and comfortably placed into the outer ear creating a seal and the flame creates a light suction action known as the chimney effect which soothes earaches, headaches, relaxes naturally, an excellent substitute for syringing. When lit, the candle acts like a chimney, causing the warm air inside it to rise and creating a vacuum at the bottom. This vacuum gently stimulates the ear, facilitating removal of excess wax and impurities.The sound of the flame creates a vibration that travels through the ear candle penetrating the eardrum which in turn vibrates the inner ear bones at such a frequency it is like an inner ear massage. This then pushes further into the Eustachian tubes and the sinuses helping to push out any blocked pressure.The essential oil essences within the candle are released into the air allowing you to breathe in the aroma, transferred through the skin and into the blood stream helping you relax and calm you. The candle is allowed to burn down to within a short distance of a marked red line,being held by the practitioner at all times. While it is burning down, you may feel a gentle warming sensation in the ear and hear a pleasant crackling sound during the process. When the candle is removed gently it is then extinguished in water and the process is repeated on the other side.
This treatment is therefore detoxifying, and is still working in the body up to 48 hours after the treatment, therefore please follow the after care advice given to you at the end of your treatment.
It is important to note that the candle does not suck wax out of the ear; it stimulates the ear to eliminate the wax naturally, ensuring maximum safety, which is the naturally stimulated through the immune system during the facial acupressure massage.
Contra-indications
As with all forms of treatment, there are some contra-indications and Ear candling is not suitable for people who have a perforated eardrum, grommets, acute ear infection or inflammation, tumours, boils or abscesses of the ear and surrounding area. It has also been said that this treatment should not be given during the first trimester of pregnancy. Treatment time varies according to the Client’s needs; so an hour is set aside for each session.
INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE (PENASSAGE)
Indian Head Massage will soothe away stress and tension, leaving you relaxed, revitalised and re-energised. This is a very popular treatment, perfect for promoting a calm mind, a stress-free body and for maintaining optimum health, also balancing the chakras, through a variety of different techniques, the massage works to release any blocked negative energy in the body that may be manifesting itself as disease or injury in any one of the seven Chakras (energy centres) of the body. It does so by applying pressure to certain points on the neck, shoulders and head that correspond to each Chakra (which is a similar approach to that of reflexology). This unblocks the Chakras, and allows for a free flow of energy around the body, restoring the individual to optimum health and feelings of wellbeing.
Symptoms that Indian Head Massage may help to alleviate, reduce, and relieve:
- Promotes hair growth
- Helps prevent migraines, headaches and back pain

Indian Head Massage is a form of massage therapy created in India thousands of years ago. It is deep style a massage derived from the Ayurvedic tradition that focuses on the head, shoulders and neck.
Indian Head Massage works on areas affected by mental and emotional stress so this treatment can really help to calm the mind and is surprisingly deeply relaxing. Working with a firm and gentle rhythm it helps to relieve muscular discomfort and tension as well as calming the spirit and aiding relaxation, it also improves circulation in the head, enhances the senses and promotes clear thinking. Lymphatic drainage is increased, stimulating a healthier immune system and the removal of toxins. All organs and endocrine glands in the head and neck benefit, and there is a subsequent cascade of benefit in the rest of the body as all endocrine glands elsewhere respond to the improved function of those in the head and neck.
What happens in an Indian Head Massage treatment?
The massage starts at the upper back by applying pressure to points that dissolve knots and relax the muscles. They then move to the shoulders and upper arms to release other common areas of tension, and to the neck and head to release headache-causing blockages and to encourage better circulation of the cerebral fluid. The massage then progresses to the scalp, relaxing the entire head, encouraging circulation and stimulating hair growth. Lastly, I performs a gentle face massage that may relieve symptoms of sinusitis & headaches, and encourages good circulation and a glowing complexion and chakra balancing.
This therapy can be performed without oils with the client sitting and fully clothed, so it is ideally suited to the workplace or situations where it may not be appropriate to give a full-body hour long massage.
THAI HAND AND FOOT MASSAGE
Thai Hand and Foot Massage
Thai Hand and Foot massage is an invigorating and revitalising, yet deeply relaxing treatment that focuses on the feet and lower legs combining different techniques, which include stimulating reflex points on the sole of the feet. The treatment works on opening the Sen lines (energy lines) in the body to encourage better flow of ‘Qi’ (life force energy) and to generally stimulate the internal organs. Along with the usual benefits of massage it may be particularly helpful with increasing energy, grounding and centring, encouraging more efficient waste removal and may aid conditions such as headaches, migraines, constipation, tension and anxiety.
Unlike reflexology which is usually a bespoke treatment that focuses on very specific reflex points to help treat dysfunction of corresponding organs, Thai Foot massage is a general treatment that encourages and promotes good health and in Thailand they have a 'Foot Massage for Health', the Eastern philosophy being focused on the preventative approach, to have treatment while you are healthy to help you remain healthy!

AFTERCARE ADVICE
Following your treatment you will be feeling relaxed and refreshed, but you may also experience other short term symptoms. The below after affects are all normal and are due to the systems of the body being stimulated to release and expel toxins, together with a positive release of energy within the body. These symptoms are short lived and will normally pass after 24-48 hours, after which you will more likely to feel calmer and better in yourself.
These are some of the symptoms you may experience:
- Cold like symptoms, achiness, sore throat
- Increased sweating
- Stuffy, blocked or runny nose
- Heightened emotions – high or low
- Sleepy & fatigued or deeply relaxed
- Irritable
- Energised or tired
- Temporary worsening of symptoms
- Increased thirst and/or hunger
- Increased urination
- Sounder sleep
- Headaches
- Nausea
- Pimple breakout
- Some erythema (reddening of the skin) may be present after treatment.
As everyone is different and may ‘react’ differently to a treatment these symptoms are quite normal and are a good sign that the treatment is working. This is known as a healing reaction.
As the body starts to re balance and enter homoeostasis (harmony) these after affects subside. Regular treatments help to maintain the body at its optimal levels.
You should do the following: - Drink plenty of water over the next 24 hours following treatment at least 6 to 8 glasses per day. (This can assist your body to flush out toxins and reduce symptoms that massage helps to release from your body).
- Eat light meals, AVOID heavy meals immediately after the treatment as blood is diverted to the gut to help with digestion of the food and this will divert energy away from the healing process.
- If you feel tired, rest as much as possible. Listen to your body.
- Avoid heat treatments (bath, sauna etc) for at least 24 hours.
- Avoid sun beds or the sun if certain oils have been used (photo toxicity) your therapist will advise you. (This is after an Aromatherapy Massage treatment)
- Avoid strenuous activity or exercise for the rest of the day after treatment Or for at least 24 hours. Listen to your body.
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine and fizzy drinks for at least 24 hours.
If you feel concerned about anything following your treatment do not hesitate to call me for advice.
If however, you cannot reach me and you feel poorly in anyway, or your symptoms worsen; always call you G.P. for advice.
If you have just received a treatment please take the time to keep a list of your symptoms and tell me the next time you come for a treatment, so you can get the best possible treatment in the future.
