Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stones massage in Brighton and Hove

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 tight muscles release.

The heat of the stones penetrates deep into the muscle tissue releasing toxins and increasing lymphatic drainage. The heat is very soothing for aching joints and muscles. The depth of the massage stimulates a higher rate of tissue repair.

During the massage, the therapist warms up the body with traditional Swedish massage, then massages you while holding a set of heated stones. As the stones cool, the therapist replaces it with another.

The therapist might also leave heated stones in specific points along your spine, in the palms of your hand, on your belly, or even between your toes to improve the flow of energy in your body.

The strokes given to the body with hot stones are generally deeper than the average traditional massage movements due to the stones density; with an estimated efficiency ten times that of traditional massage.

* If you have inflammation or muscle injury, cold stones are sometimes used.

Thai Oil Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage in Brighton and Hove

A deep tissue massage focuses on the different layers of tissue. This type of massage concentrates on working to relax, lengthen, and release strain patterns within muscle, tendons and fascia, so that the body’s posture can realign itself.

A deep tissue massage can be used to treat common injuries sustained by working out as well as general muscular issues. During the massage, we identify the areas in which you are experiencing muscle tightness or pinpoint potential muscular weakness, where left untreated could cause issues or injury.

Both physical and emotional traumas cause stiffening in muscles. Deep tissue massage releases toxins, relieves stress, boosts circulation as well as reduces stress and physical pain.

Our massage technique is tailored to you and your body’s needs. It is important to understand that working deeply does not necessarily mean applying lots of pressure and that a light touch can have an incredibly positive effect on the body and mind.

Head, Back & Shoulders Deep Tissue Sports Massage

Head, back and shoulders deep tissue sports massage in Brighton and Hove

A head, back and shoulder deep tissue or sports massage relieves tension on the back of your shoulders and neck. It works on the energy lines running along the top of your shoulders and down your shoulders and points at the base, where muscle knots can form.

Causes of Neck and Shoulder Pain

Bad posture; sitting cramped over a desk; hunched over a steering wheel; certain sports, such as golf; and illnesses such as asthma, can all cause strain and tension to the neck and shoulders.

The chest muscles shorten and contract, causing the muscles in the upper back to become overstretched. This results in rounded shoulders and tight, inflexible muscles in the neck and upper back. Stretching and relaxing the chest muscles, along with kneading the shoulders can help in reducing pain in the neck and shoulders.

Benefits

Head massage is an efficient form of massage therapy based on the ancient Ayurvedic healing systems. This alternative therapeutic practice involves giving a thorough rubbing down on your head/scalp, face, shoulders and the neck areas.

The basic concept of the head massage is derived from chakra-balancing, which, when performed, greatly augments your existing energy level. The massaging action, in fact, is aimed at clearing any blockages that may be present in your energy channels. Such blockage normally leads to unhealthy increase in the level of negative energy that causes many ailments.

The Head, Back and Shoulders Massage is highly relaxing; it helps relieve headaches and stimulates the nerves on your head. It exercises the scalp and stimulates blood circulation within your head to promote hair growth. It also strengthens hair roots and is thought to help prevent baldness.

Thai Foot massage Ritual

Thai foot massage in Brighton and Hove

How does it work?

The underlying theory is that there are “reflex” areas on the feet and hands that correspond to specific organs, glands and other parts of the body. For example:

  • the tips of the toes reflect the head
  • the heart and chest are around the ball of the foot
  • the liver, pancreas and kidney are in the arch of the foot
  • low back and intestines are towards the heel

Practitioners believe that applying pressure to these reflex areas can promote health in the corresponding organs through energetic pathways.

A scientific explanation is that the pressure may send signals that balance the nervous system or release chemicals such as endorphins that reduce pain and stress.

What will I feel?

Most people find thai foot massage for the most part to be very relaxing.

It  shouldn’t be painful. If you feel discomfort, be sure to tell your therapist. He or she should work within your comfort zone.

Some areas may be tender or sore, and the therapist may spend extra time on these points. The soreness should decrease with pressure.

If you’re ticklish, not to worry. The therapist applies firm pressure to the feet.

Why do people get thai foot massage

  • Stress and stress-related conditions
  • Tension headaches
  • Digestive disorders
  • Arthritis
  • Insomnia
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Sports injuries
  • Menstrual disorders, such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
  • Digestive problems, such as constipation
  • Back pain

The treatment is a popular alternative therapy. It promotes relaxation, improves circulation, reduces pain, soothes tired feet and encourages overall healing.

It is also used for post-operative or palliative care. A study in the American Cancer Society journal found that one-third of cancer patients used reflexology as a complementary therapy.

It is recommended as a complementary therapy and should not replace medical treatment.

What is a typical treatment like?

A typical treatment is 45 minutes long and begins with a consultation about your health and lifestyle.

You are then asked to remove your shoes and socks and sit comfortably in a reclining chair or on a massage table. You otherwise you remain fully clothed. The therapist will assess the feet and then stimulate various points to identify areas of tenderness or tension.

The therapist then uses brisk movements to warm the feet up. Then pressure is applied from the toes to the heel according to your comfort. Lotion or oil may be used.

How will I feel after?

Most people feel calm and relaxed after a treatment. They may even feel sleepy.

Occasionally, people feel nauseous, anxious, or tearful, but this is only temporary and is considered to be part of the healing process.

Precautions

If you’re pregnant, talk with your doctor first and let the reflexologist know.

Be sure to give the therapist a complete and accurate health history.

If you have foot ulcers, injury, or blood vessel disease such as blood clots, consult your doctor before having reflexology.

Thai Oil Relaxing Massage

Thai oil massage in Brighton and Hove

Thai oil massage enhances body and mind through the combination of many different massage forms including Thai, aromatherapy and Swedish massage.

This synergistic treatment promotes serenity and a sense of well being. When massaging, aromatic oil is firmly applied over your body in blissful and synchronized waves, using the smooth stokes of Swedish massage, but also relieving the muscle tension with Thai massage techniques.

During Thai oil massage, massage therapists use massage oils to facilitate smooth, gliding strokes called effleurage. Other classic Thai oil massage moves include kneading, friction, stretching and (sometimes) tapping.

There is nothing like it!

Feel free to state your preference for pressure during the massage session. It can range from light to firm. Thai oil massage usually includes some deeper work on areas of specific muscle tension. If you want more intensive work and firmer pressure, opt for a deep tissue massage.
