Complementary & Beauty Therapy Treatments in Faversham

Holistic Body Massage

A holistic massage is a tailored treatment that can involve techniques from a variety of therapies, such as aromatherapy and Swedish body massage, to create a massage that is unique to each individual client.

An holistic massage is usually a massage of the whole body using a vegetable oil known as carrier oil. The pace and pressure used can be adapted to work out tension, aches and pains, to soothe and relax, or to stimulate and tone the muscles and tissues. A body massage would usually include the back, neck, shoulders, arms and legs, but again this can be adapted. A 30 minute back and shoulder massage is also available for those who prefer a shorter treatment.

Sports Massage

Sports Massage was designed for treating athletes but is actually useful for anyone suffering from chronic pain, injury or range of motion (ROM) problems.

This type of therapy deals with the soft tissues of the body such as muscles, tendons and ligaments, and emphasizes on the prevention and recovery of injuries to them. Treatment can range from a short invigorating pre-sport massage, to a longer treatment that works on sore, tired muscles and realignment of tissues. Sports massage is specific to the affected area, and focuses on relieving symptoms relating to an injury.

Hot Stone Massage

Hot stone massage dates back to over three thousand years. The treatment originated in China and India, and more recently has been used by the North American Indians living in the South West states. Some native healers used heated stones to ease the discomfort of menstruation or muscle tension in other areas.

Hot stone massage is a specialty massage that uses smooth, heated stones. They are often basalt, a black volcanic rock that absorbs and retains heat well. The heat is both deeply relaxing and helps to release tight muscles. It is generally accepted that one stroke of the heated stone is the equivalent of five strokes of the therapists hands! The benefits of hot stone massage include increased local circulation and improved blood flow to the surrounding tissues, aiding healing and greater ability to transport toxins and waste products from the area. This treatment is deeply relaxing whilst also being extremely effective in relieving muscle tension.
