Deep Tissue Massage


Deep Tissue Massage, as its name says, focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It is designed to reach the deep sections of thick muscles, specifically the individual muscle fibres. Using deep muscle compression and friction along the grain of the muscle, the purpose of Deep Tissue Massage is to unstick the fibres of the muscles and release both toxins and deeply held tension points. Specific hand positions and strokes are used to respond to various tissues while breath and movement techniques are employed to release muscular congestion. It helps to loosen muscle tissues, release toxins from muscles and get blood and oxygen circulating properly. It is both corrective and therapeutic. It is beneficial for many physical problems, including sports injuries and chronic pain. Because it works very deeply, emotional issues can also be addressed, when these have been stored in the body.

Detoxification


Detoxification comes in many forms and refers to many different programs that cleanse the body of toxins. Today, our environment is toxic and the foods we eat, even the air we breathe and the water we drink is laden with chemicals foreign to our system. Therefore, everyone is undergoing some type of detoxification to maintain life and health. Although basic detoxification begins with diet, detox programs may include nutritional fortification for the liver, lungs, kidneys, bowels and blood.

Dream Therapy


This is a technique often used by psychotherapists and involves the use of dreams and the dream state to heal on a physical and emotional level. It involves the interpretation and analysis of dreams, and also the technique of lucid dreaming (which is the process by which one takes the conscious mind into the dream state) to search for answers to problems.The aim is to link the conscious mind with what is happening in the unconscious and then interpreting patterns and symbols. The information received can be used to heal situations or heal on a physical level

Electro crystal therapy


Electro-Crystal Therapy is a gentle and non-invasive method of balancing the human energy field. It uses the pulsed high-frequency electromagnetic stimulation of crystals to induce rebalancing in human and animal patients.
Electromagnetism has been used by conventional medicine for many years e.g. X-rays in diagnosis and pulsed frequencies to aid bone healing. Crystals have been used to aid natural healing for thousands of years. The innovation in Electro-Crystal Therapy is the synergistic combination of the two and their specific application on the chakras and meridians of the human energy field. The therapy works on a subtle energy level.

Energy field healing


Energy healing (aura and chakra healing) is one of the most profound and fundamental alternative therapies in the field of alternative medicine and holistic health. It employs spiritual healing methods which expand the awareness of the energy healer and uses energy, color and light healing techniques to catalyze healing in the patient’s energy field (aura and chakra system)—helping the patient break free from afflictions and limitations of body, mind and spirit. It may provide enhanced quality of life for the patient, and facilitate spiritual growth. Energy healing is often a powerful spiritual path for the practitioner, as well

Essential Oils


Essential oils are organic compounds derived from plant sources such as roots, bark, flowers and seeds. They are complex chemical compounds and not technically oils at all! They are extracted using a variety of methods to capture the scented particles, leaving many of the other chemical constituents of the plant behind.Aromatherapy is a complementary therapy based on holistic principles, using the application of essential oils to improve mental, physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Oils can be applied in a variety of ways apart from massage

Feng Shui

Feng Shui is based on the Taoist vision and understanding of nature, particularly on the idea that the land is alive and filled with Chi, or energy. The main tools used in a feng shui analysis are the Compass and the Ba-Gua. The Ba-Gua is an octagonal grid containing the symbols of the I Ching, the ancient oracle on which Feng Shui is based. Knowing the Bagua of your home will help you understand the connection of specific feng shui areas of your home to specific areas of your life.
