Hot Stones Massage
Imagine yourself lying in a dimly lit room with soft music playing. You lay back and start to relax as a warm stone glides over your skin followed by another, then another. Within moments you focus purely on the heat from the stones as they softly penetrate deep into your knotted muscles.

Is that the warm hands of the therapist massaging you or another stone?

As your mind slips into another world all you can feel is the warmth from the silky smooth stones. Its an experience of complete relaxation that goes deeper and deeper into an almost "meditative state."

The ancient art of healing using natural materials is being re-discovered around the world. Many cultures through history have used heated stones in the treatment of stress, pain and tension.

Based on Hawaiian practices, the technique uses selected basalt stones to suit individual parts of the body .

The stones are placed in different areas of the body, usually separated from the actual skin by a layer of towel. The remaining stones are used with oil as massage tools and it's virtually impossible not to melt into the bed from the relaxing effects of this combination of massage and heated stones .

Lymphatic Drainage
The Lymphatic system is our front line of defence in fighting bodily infections, detoxifying the body and transporting metabolic wastes, excess water, bacteria and toxins out of the body.

The Lymph glands (at neck, armpits, groin, etc.) are connected by a broad network of vessels which transplant the fluid. Muscular movement is required to move it, as there is no "Heart" to pump it.

Lymphatic Drainage is a gentle whole body treatment that relaxes the nervous system and aids the body's immune system. It is highly recommended for those prone to and recovering from sore throats, colds, infections, on-going tiredness, excess fluid, low immunity, swollen nodes and also for the physically inactive.

Pregnancy Massage
Massage is a vastly under-utilised tool for fostering a healthy pregnancy, which can benefit pregnant woman and their developing foetus enormously.

Massage can decrease stress and improve relaxation, improve lymph drainage, benefit muscle tone and elasticity and have a balanced effect on glands, all of which are of huge benefit during pregnancy. Pregnancy is a time of structural, physiological, spiritual and social
change. Some of these changes produce discomfort and concern, which can be addressed with appropriate massage therapy.

Pregnancy massage is beneficial throughout the nine months of a low risk pregnancy. Massage in pregnancy can include specific light and deep pressure massage, myofascial techniques, circulatory work, acupressure and reflexology.

At Relax, we use a specialised massage table to allows us to massage our clients on their stomach face down in absolute comfort.

Reflexology

The foot is considered to reflect your body as a whole. By stimulating pressure points in your feet, a re-balancing energy is directed to your internal organs and body structures to promote healing and well-being.

Reflexology is a form of bodywork that focuses primarily on the feet. The theory behind reflexology is that there are "reflex" areas on the feet and hands that correspond to specific organs, glands, and other parts of the body.

For example:  

1 . The heart and chest are around the ball of the foot

2 . The tips of the toes reflect the head

3 . The pancreas, liver, and kidney are in the arch of the foot

4 . Low back and intestines are towards the heel

Practitioners believe that applying pressure to these reflex areas can promote health in the corresponding organs through energetic pathways.

A scientific explanation is that the pressure may send signals that balance the nervous system or release chemicals such as endorphins that reduce pain and stress.

You feel lighter and more relaxed, yet stimulated with lovely warm, tingling feet!
