Ayurveda Marma Massage

Indian Head Massage

This massage technique is a seated massage working on the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp and face bringing relief from everyday stresses which can be the cause of headaches, eyestrain, stiff neck and insomnia. We use coconut oil for this one, a great natural moisturiser for the hair.
Thai Yoga Massage
Available Monday - Friday
105 minutes - £72
A unique technique often referred to as 'yoga massage'.Unlike most other massages this one is done fully clothed on a floor mat. You are moved into various yoga 'asanas' (positions) by the therapist who is simultaneously applying pressure to acupressure points along the energy lines running throughout the body.
