To allow a full range of movement and flow during stretching, Ayurvedic Yoga Massage treatment is performed on a mat laid on the floor, similar to Thai massage.
Each treatment is adjusted to suit clients' needs, whether that is relaxing, energising, soothing, deep or remedial.
The treatment is initiated with a sequence to warm up the body, which allows the session to become a moving meditation.
During the treatment, a mixture of oil and ayurvedic herb - Acorus calamus - in the form of powder, is applied to the skin.
Ground Acorus calamus, a root of wetland plant from the sweet flag family, stimulates the flow of blood, which not only helps to further warm up the muscles but also supports the body’s detoxing processes as well as giving a pleasant, warm, exfoliating feeling.

Do you struggle to 'switch off'?
Is your mind constantly on the go?
Are you feeling scattered?
Does it feel like ages since you last allowed yourself to rest?
Is there so much going on in your life that you're not even sure what it is that you're feeling?
First of all - you're not alone.
And second - I've got you.
We live immersed in societal & systemic structures that require so much of us. Demands of modern life expect us to be constantly switched on and even glorify exhaustion.
But if you're here, I'm pretty sure you realise, even if just a little bit, that there must be more to life than the constant grind intermitted by holidays (during which you probably also struggle to fully rest?).
So why not start your rest & self-connection journey here?
During this deeply healing treatment originated in the Himalayas, you can not only hear a soothing sound but feel a deep resonance of the Tibetan bowl placed directly on your body.The vibration reaches every cell of your body, bringing a feeling of harmony, a deep state of relaxation & mental clarity.
Practically speaking, during the treatment, I place a singing bowl directly on your body and move it along your body whilst tapping it to generate vibrations & sound.
“There is no organ system in the body that’s not affected by sound, music and vibration. You can look at disease as a form of disharmony.”
Mitchell Gaynor
