Treatments in Detail
Do you suffer with back pain, headaches, stress, tiredness, poor circulation, muscle aches and stiffness? Why not try one or more of the following treatments to ease away the pain:
Hopi Ear Candling
(also known as Thermo Auricular Therapy)
Deeply relaxing, calming and soothing - offering real and marked benefits for many conditions of the ear, nose and throat areas; and is excellent for children.
This treatment takes around 40 minutes. The neck and face are massaged and the sinus points are drained for added therapeutic benefit prior to the actual candling. The gentle heat from the candle stimulates blood circulation and assists with secretion flow, which is collected by the candle, and removes impurities and deposits.

Hot Stone Therapy
Hot stone massage will give a healing improvement to the following conditions:
- Muscular aches, pains, sprains, and strains
- Poor circulation
- Rheumatic and arthritic conditions
- Back pain
- Stress, anxiety and tension
- Insomnia
- Depression
The Stone Massage involves the application of water-heated basalt stones of varying sizes to key points on the body. It gives a deep massage and creates a sensation of comfort and warmth. The heat applied to the stone relaxes muscles and allows a greater intensity when massaging.
Deeply relaxing, heat from the basalt stones penetrates through the skin to expand the blood vessels, pushing blood and unwanted waste materials through the body. This has a sedative effect on the nervous system.
Every cell in the body receives more oxygen and nutrients whilst at the same time waste material is removed more effectively through the corresponding increase in lymph flow.
Stone massage makes you feel deeply relaxed, allowing you to let go of all the stress that is held within your body.
Please allow 75 mins-1.5 hrs for this treatment
