Massage Therapy - The Sidhe Space

Holistic/Therapeutic Body Massage

Holistic philosophy asserts that everything about a person is interconnected. Holistic healing acknowledges that how a person feels emotionally also impacts their physical state. The holistic position also recognizes that social and mental factors play a significant role in a person’s physical health. Holistic Massage is suited to each individual and their needs.

Emotional, mental and physical tension is stored in the muscle tissue, and this tension is often the physical form of emotional stress, anxiety and depression. As a highly trained and experienced masseuse I apply skilled massage techniques to the body and soft tissue encouraging the muscular and nervous systems to relax, helping release stress and tension. Through my experience and training of the connection to mind, body and spirit I can help you understand where your tension, pain and physical ailments are coming from. Each of our ailments has an emotional story to tell. Emotions can get stuck in our energy field and if we don’t clear them they begin to manifest into our physical body. For me the Holistic approach is a journey where the physical is the beginning point leading us to the underlying causes. Being able to see the client as a whole person rather than just a list of isolated ailments or symptoms allows me to create a more meaningful and effective treatment plan. Your experience is deeper and more effective as it is informed by your own experience, needs and preferences.

Sound Massage

In this treatment the client is fully clothed lying on the plinth/massage table. Therapeutically made singing bowls are placed on the body in specific areas and soft felted mallets strike the bowls releasing gentle but deep vibrations that go through our bodies at a cellular level. I like to refer to it as a Cosmic Massage as no other treatments go so deep revitalising all our cells whilst simultaneously being so non intrusive. The vibrations clear any blockages of energy we have in our bodies working though our meridian points and are amazing for reducing pain in the body. A deep and profoundly relaxing treatment with long lasting effects.

I also offer a mobile service please contact me if this is something you would like to arrange
