NB - Initial consultation required prior to this Massage to see if the session is right for you - 30 mins appointment booked prior to this session What is it? This type of massage focusses on the lymphatic system, which is part of the immune system. Following a particular sequence, this light and relaxing massage stimulates the flow of lymph through the one-way drainage pathways of the body. Lymph moves water, protein, cells and electrolytes around the body and by stimulating this action, the tissues of the body are assisted in clearing excess fluid. What is the aim of the massage? It aims to help the body maintain proper blood circulation, body fluid balance, and immune functions. To reduce swelling (oedema) by increasing lymphatic drainage to the superficial lymph pathways. How is it performed? Using a series of gliding, compressing, stretching, and cupping motions over the body. The massage involves helping empty lymph nodes, helping soften tissues and help with the flow of lymph around the body. By applying gentle pressure around and over nodes and along the lymphatic pathways. Usually lymphatic drainage massage takes place in a heated room. & Benefits? This can help with: Sinus Problems, IBS, Fluid Retention, Swollen Legs and Ankles, Muscle Damage and Lymphoedema. Abdominal massage is optional. One of the best things you can do for your lymphatic system is to be more active. Even the most gentle activity will help encourage a healthy lymph flow, as movement of the muscles exerts pressure on the lymphatic vessels and keeps them moving. For those who are unable, MLD massage can help provide an alternative.£45.001h 30minManual Lymphatic Drainage - Consultation

The treatment involves placing an ear candle – a hollow tube made of unbleached cotton that is coated with natural ingredients such as beeswax, honey and herbs – into the ear canal. Treating each ear separately, as the candle gently burns down it is believed to act like a ‘chimney’ creating a light vacuum effect. The flicker of the flame also creates vibrations that massage the eardrum. The herbal vapours from the lit candle also swirl into the ear canal, helping to soothe and balance.£35.0045min
