Complementary Treatments
Hopi Ear Candling
This gentle, therapeutic treatment helps to relieve congestion in the inner ear and sinus area. You lie on your side while a hollow beeswax candle infused with camomile is lit and placed in your ear canal. As the candle burns down, a vacuum is created, drawing out congestion from your inner ear. After treating both ears, I carry out a relaxing acupressure facial massage.
Hopi ear candling is ideal for anyone who suffers from headaches, insomnia, excessive snoring, compacted earwax or recurring ear infections. It is a non-invasive, painless treatment.
Spray Tanning
For long lasting, natural-looking colour, I use Fake Bake tanning products. I apply the tan in a pop-up tent with a spray gun. You can choose from 3 shades (fair, original and dark) to suit your individual skin colouring. Fake Bake products have a pleasant aroma and are free from parabens and artificial preservatives.
Your tan will take 6-8 hours to develop, after which time the product should be showered off. Fake Bake offers safe tanning with flawless results, making it a favourite with celebrities.
Waxing
I use hot wax on small areas and warm wax with fabric strips on larger areas. Refer to Prices for a full list of body parts treated. Ideally, hair should be at least half a centimetre long for effective removal.
Jessica Nails
I use the Jessica GELeration range of nail varnishes for manicures and pedicures. Although applied like a polish, it has the durability of a gel with a hard-wearing, long lasting finish. The varnish guarantees high shine and does not chip, peel or fade. The product is sealed in place with a UV lamp and your nails are dry as you leave the salon.
You will need to return to the salon after 3 weeks to have the gel removed. I soak each nail in a special solution to avoid damaging your natural nail beneath. Removal is included in the price.
Minx Nails
Minx nails have become the latest must-have fashion accessory. They are brightly coloured foil wraps available in an array of patterned or metallic finishes. Applied onto the nail bed and sealed with heat, they offer a striking alternative to traditional nail varnish. Best suited to toes, a Minx pedicure will last up to 1 month.
Pregnancy Massage
Your needs change during pregnancy as your baby bump grows. Massage can help boost your energy levels, ease your aching back and reduce swelling by dispersing fluid retention. The use of oils also reduces the risk of stretch marks. Pregnancy massage is suitable from 12 weeks until full term.
Infant Massage
Touch plays a vital role in forging a strong parent-child relationship. Massage can be nurturing for both mother and baby, helping you to bond. I offer classes in infant massage to promote better sleep, to improve flexibility and coordination and to provide relief from colic and teething pain.
Reiki
Reiki (pronounced Rey-key) means universal love.
As a reiki master I work with the body's energy fields to cleanse and re-vitalise all the systems within the body. Results include a great sense of wellbeing and attunement as well as balancing the chakras.
