You or someone you know may be seeking counselling or psychotherapy for a wide variety of reasons.
The reasons people come to counselling or psychotherapy are as varied as people themselves. Often, clients have encountered distressing or stressful experiences or situations which they’d like to talk about in a safe setting. These might include present circumstances of bereavement, separation, or other major life transitions, or experiences from the past, such as in childhood. Others seek help in dealing with specific psychological or behavioural traits which they’d like to alter, such as compulsive thoughts or difficulties relating to people. Some people seek counselling to help them explore a general feeling that their lives are not quite right, or to cope with feelings of depression or anxiety. Still others look to counselling as part of their effort to discover or create meaning in their lives. Many people are attracted to counselling as an opportunity to undertake personal development in a safe and supportive environment. It is not at all necessary to have a ‘problem’ to find counselling useful.
People seeking general development as well as difficulties ranging from ‘minor niggles’ to profound distress impacting all areas of life have benefited from counselling and psychotherapy.
Deep Tissue Massage
Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic Massage, also known as Swedish massage or remedial massage, works on the muscles to release muscular tension, ease pain, and improve movement in the body. It encourages blood and lymph flow thus increasing oxygen and nutrients delivered to the tissues of the body and encouraging toxins and waste products to be removed.
Whilst the physical manipulation of the muscles helps improve muscle condition and reduce muscular tension, many of the techniques also calm the autonomic nervous system, switching it from its sympathetic mode (adrenaline-driven, fast-paced, stressed) to the parasympathetic mode (concerned with relaxation, healing and cell renewal). This provides an invaluable opportunity for the body to rest on a deep level and repair itself.
Massage therapy is useful in treating deep-seated muscular tension, which can occur due to postural problems from a sedentary lifestyle, hard physical work and prolonged stress. It can be extremely useful in the management of stress when received regularly as part of an ongoing regime.
Amatsu
Amatsu has its roots in Japanese principles of martial arts movement but clients are often surprised by how gentle, as well as effective, Amatsu is. The treatment is performed fully clothed and there are no cracks or crunches
Facial Therapy
A soothing treatment for body and mind, Organic Facial Therapy gently targets fascia in the head, neck, and shoulders with specialised massage techniques, releasing stored tension and tight muscles.
A Gua Sha stone is additionally used for facial sculpting and lymphatic drainage, lifting and toning the skin.
During the treatment, the skin is cleansed, exfoliated and moisturised with organic skincare products made with the highest-grade ingredients. Delicately fragranced and suitable for sensitive skin, these products prompt a healing aromatherapeutic experience.
The relaxation benefits of organic facial therapy can hardly be overstated; it is often beneficial for clients seeking to improve sleep and mood. Radiant skin and a feeling of deep, sustained relaxation follow for days after treatment.

Aromatherapy Massage
Aromatherapy massage involves a blend of highly aromatic essential oils, specifically tailored for the patient, being applied to the body by using a variety of massage techniques.
Aromatherapy massage can be a deeply relaxing treatment combining the powerful effects of massage and plant extracts.
A great variety of conditions can benefit from aromatherapy owing to the medicinal properties of the powerful plant essences. Each oil has properties that are unique to the plant source from which it was extracted and when inhaled or absorbed through the skin the oil is transported throughout the body via the blood.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
An EFT treatment involves the use of fingertips rather than needles to tap on the end points of energy meridians that are situated just beneath the surface of the skin. The treatment is non-invasive and works on the ethos of making change as simple and as pain free as possible. The combination of sending kinetic energy to our energy system, whilst uncovering and focusing on root causes, facilitates a “straightening out” of the energy system thereby eliminating the “short circuit” to the body’s learnt response or negative emotion.
Craniosacral Therapy
The craniosacral therapist uses a light touch of the hands to palpate or ‘listen’ to the body’s tissues and fluids. Differences in their motion and quality can show where there are areas of stagnation and restriction.
The intention of the craniosacral therapist is to listen to the information conveyed by the client through their body to support the body’s own ability to self-heal.
Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a system of medicine that was first developed and practised by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (in Germany) in 1790 and has been continuously developed since.
Homeopathy is gentle. The remedies used are completely non-toxic and can be used alongside conventional medicines.
Reiki
Reiki (pronounced Ray-key) is a Japanese healing system. Translated from Japanese it means ‘Universal Life Energy’. It is a gentle, non-invasive therapy, through which universal energy or ‘Ki’ is channelled to where it is most needed via a series of hand positions resting gently on or above the clothed body.
Reiki can be used to help all manner of conditions, including stress, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleeping problems, fertility, hormonal imbalances, pain reduction or elimination, making or coping with changes in your life, trauma, grief, living with chronic conditions. Reiki can be used safely alongside other therapies and conventional medicine.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Any stress, mental or physical, causes areas in the body of restricted lymphatic flow. Lymphatic fluid is vital to the life process, bathing all the cells, it acts as a medium of exchange; trading food for the cells for the waste products. This waste contains microorganisms, damaged cells, and protein molecules that are too large or too toxic to go directly into the blood stream through the capillary walls. When the lymphatic system slows down, these waste products accumulate and stagnate which causes the heavy feeling in your limbs and the overall fatigue experienced in a sedentary life style.
How does it work?
The predominant fluid in your body is lymphatic fluid. This fluid carries nutrients from the food you eat and oxygen from the air you breathe. It also carries toxic poisons, bacteria, cholesterol and viruses away from the cells in your body. Since there is no pump (like the heart for blood) to push this fluid through the body, it is only moved by deep breathing, stretching, vigorous exercise, gravitational force and massage. Manual lymphatic drainage improves the flow of lymphatic fluid.
The pulsating massage action causes the millions of one-way valves that regulate the flow of fluid to open and close, thus allowing a healthy surge of lymphatic fluid throughout the entire body.
Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage is a fast and effective technique for de-stressing and calming. It involves massage to the shoulders, arms, neck and head. The recipient receives the treatment sitting in a chair and remains fully clothed.
Pregnancy Massage
(from 12 weeks to birth)
Pregnancy massage is a wonderful treatment to support the mother-to-be during changes that occur throughout the various stages of the incredible process of pregnancy.
Techniques are adapted to accommodate the physical changes that occur during pregnancy and to make the treatment as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
Particular attention is focused on the back (especially areas of muscular tension and pain in the lower back) and legs (helping to relieve cramps and reduce fluid retention).
The treatment is valuable and enjoyable at any stage during pregnancy but is particularly beneficial during the third trimester when many issues such as heavy limbs, oedema (fluid retention), leg cramps, lower back pain, and anxiety about the birth can arise.

Pulsing facilitates the gentle release of muscular and emotional tension leading to deeper, easier breathing with greater body awareness.
