Massage
Choose the area you would like hot stones added to your massage. Smooth stones are heated and then lubricated with oil or essential oils, the therapeutic effects of heat are used to relax muscles more deeply. Used as an extension of the therapist’s hands, the use of massage stones induces deep relaxation and provides a unique experience many find to be tremendously calming and centering.
Lymphatic Drainage
A very gentle, slow and rhythmic face and body treatment which focuses directly on improving the function of the Lymphatic System. Doing lymphatic drainage after surgery helps in recovery, reducing swelling, improving blood circulation, reducing pain, and facilitating healing. It is also helpful for general wellness, assisting to reduce fluid retention and enhances the activity of the immune system.
