The powerful aroma from the oils combined with the massage can have a positive impact depending on your need (e.g. to be uplifted or to help with insomnia).
Aromatherapy is a complementary therapy that can help with all kinds of things including circulation, aches and pains, stress, fatigue, skin condition, colds and much more. It is a deeply indulgent treatment.

Swedish Massage
An invigorating, yet relaxing massage using a combination of smooth, flowing movements, tappotement movements (like hacking) that help tone and break down cellulite, lymphatic movements that drain waste (cellulite) and neuro-muscular if there are knots in the muscle.
This massage gets the circulation going, helps aches and pains, improves tone over a period of time and helps correct posture. The oils used will help nourish the skin.
Treatment time: 1hr - 1hr 15 mins approx for full body massage with postural consultation.
Cellulite Reducing Leg Massage
This is great if you're short of time to have a full Swedish massage. Pop in for a 20 minute leg massage. The massage is very much like a Swedish massage, concentrating on those stubborn areas. To see the difference you need to do a course of at least 6 treatments.
(You can use the hydrotherapy spa first if you like, which will help as it warms the superficial tissues and stimulates circulation).
Reiki
A deeply relaxing therapy. It is an ancient art of channelling energy that's been known for thousands of years. You will be asked to lie on the couch fully clothed. The therapist will guide you through a meditation and place their hands in certain positions on or over you, channelling positive energy into you. Many people experience different things, but it is ultimately relaxing and promotes peace, well being and harmony, encouraging physical, mental and emotional healing in the body. The therapist may use a crystal dowsing pendulum or give you crystals to hold.
Hopi Ear Therapy
This is like hopi ear candling, but the candles used are of a very high quality making it safer and more effective. There is also a lymphatic drainage massage done to the face, scalp and ears as well as a back massage. This treatment is very relaxing, it is detoxifying and balancing. Organic candles made from cotton, bee's wax, St John's wort, chamomile and sage are placed in the ear and burned. This is followed by massages to the ear, face, scalp and back. The treatment rids the body of negative energy, encourages softening and removal of ear wax, decongests sinuses, balances pressures in the ear, helps vertigo, glue ear, tinnitus, migraines, colds, irritation in the ear and allergies like hay fever.
