We have a range of therapists offering deep tissue massage; sports massage; holistic massage; aroma heated massage; Caribbean heated massage; pregnancy massage; soothing foot massage; Indian head massage.

See Treatments page. The massages start from:

  • 30 minutes – for specific areas such as back, neck, shoulders, legs, indian head
  • 45 minutes – general maintenance, quite nice to have for specific areas then relaxation time at the end.

Most people go for full back:

  • 60 minutes – most people go for a one hour massage as it can help to relax, destress and balance you by doing a full back and front treatment. Sometimes the therapist will concentrate on full back from the head to the feet, so just let your therapist know what your preference is.
  • 90 minutes or 2 hours – for total body detox, pampering, relaxation treat and sleep!

Please see our Terms and Conditions page for our cancellation policy.

8. What should I wear to a massage treatment?

Just wear comfortable clothing, something you don’t mind putting back on after a relaxing time, so nothing too constricted. Also if you are doing treatments such as Body Stretch, then wear leggings or tracksuit for stretch and manipulation.

9. Information for after a treatment?

If you bruise easily or have sensitive skin, please let the therapist know in advance. They may use deep tissue and/or manipulation which should increase your circulation, so it can show up in your skin, where blood is getting to those areas.

Waxing
Please do not use the sauna or have a hot shower or use a sun bed before or after waxing.

Deep Tissue or NSRT
Clients find it useful to soak in a warm bath after a treatment ideally with some Epsom Salts to ease the work done to the muscles and give the muscles a chance to rest & relax.
