Reflexology
It is based on the principle that there are reflexes on the feet and hands that relate to each organ, gland and structure in the body, in effect, the feet and hands are miniature maps of the entire body and that tension, blockages or congestion in different parts of the body will be reflected in the body reflexes found on the feet or hands. Gentle stimulation of the appropriate reflex points on the hands or feet will restore the flow of vital energy around the body, thereby allowing the body to heal itself at its own pace.
What to expect during a Reflexology Treatment
All treatments last approximately 1 to 1½ hours and take place in the comfort and serenity of my healing rooms surrounded by soothing aromas and gentle relaxing music. The Reflexology treatment is carried out in the comfort of a reclining chair and can be performed on the feet or the hands, if preferred. The stimulation of the reflexes is gentle but firm so that the effect is soothing and does not tickle. If there is any discomfort felt on any of the reflexes it is usually fleeting and is an indication of congestion of imbalance in the related part of the body. Most people find the sessions deeply relaxing and rejuvenating and all will benefit in a way most appropriate to themselves. For each person the application and effect of the therapy is unique.

Hopi Ear Candling
Hopi candling is a very safe and gentle therapy and is particularly popular with clients suffering from conditions such as tinnitus, sinusitis, excessive ear wax and hearing loss, and stress-related headaches.
What to expect during a Hopi Ear Candling
A hopi ear candle treatment will usually last about 45 minutes to an 1 hour. Clients are usually advised to remove makeup and jewellery before the treatment starts. Fully dressed the client lies down on their side, with their head supported on a pillow so the auditory canal is vertical. The candle is then lit and the non-burning end is placed gently into the outer ear passage and is turned lightly to seal it in place.
The candle then generates a pleasant crackling sound and a warm, comfortable feeling while it draws out the impurities from the ear. After about 10 - 15 minutes the process is repeated on the other ear. This is followed by a period of relaxation, and a soothing face and sinus massage. Treatment is recommend every 4-6 weeks for preventative and revitalizing purposes. For chronic conditions such as sinusitis you may be asked to return in two weeks.
All treatments are carried out on a therapy couch and take place in the comfort and serenity of my healing rooms surrounded by soothing aromas and gentle relaxing music. If there is any discomfort felt on any parts of the body during the session it is usually short lived. Most people find the sessions deeply relaxing and beneficial and for each person the application and effect of the therapy is unique.
