Relaxation Massage

Relaxation massage is the ideal treatment if you want some ‘me’ time to chill out, be pampered and indulged. The massage is firmer than Swedish massage yet, with gentle music, dimmed lighting and luxurious massage oils, it is the perfect way to soothe both body and mind. Apart from an initial discussion at the beginning of the treatment there is no talking during a Relaxation Massage giving you maximum opportunity to totally unwind.

·        Helps relieve tension-related headaches and the effects of eye strain

·        Increased awareness of mind-body connection
