Advanced Facial Reflexology has been developed over the past 20 years by Ziggie Bergman - founded on Fitzgerald’s Zone Therapy; inspired by Native American healing techniques.  

Facial reflexology aims to balance the entire body, whilst also offering secondary aesthetic qualities of a radiant glowing complexion, coined as, "a natural alternative to Botox" 

A 40-minute facial reflexology sequence is completed, using pressure applied by the fingers, and amethyst (promoting clarity and balance) and quartz (promoting healing and love) facial wands.   

The techniques stimulate the body's healing mechanisms, improving circulation and nerve conduction; encouraging the release of toxins via the lymphatic system. 

The close proximity of the face to the brain and cranial nerves, make facial reflexology very powerful in impacting the body's systems - connecting the body's neural pathways. 

Advanced Facial Reflexology can improve emotional wellbeing – reducing stress.  There have also been significant improvements noted in addressing migraines, bruxism (teeth grinding), Bells Palsy and sinus conditions. 

The face is cleaned using Neal’s Yard cleanser, a hot towel is then applied to the face, relaxing muscles, increasing circulation and opening pores.  Neal’s Yard’s facial oil is massaged to the face and the relaxing reflexology sequence begins. 

Indian Head Massage and/or a back massage can be added to the treatment. 

£35 per hour. 

I completed a Level 3 Diploma in Sports Massage at Pencoed Campus.

It is a whole-body therapeutic massage treatment, working the soft tissue and muscle; helping restore health.

Creating a calming and balancing effect on the nervous system, promoting lymph and blood flow, boosting immunity, decreasing muscle toxins and improving flexibility. 

Several studies have highlighted the therapeutic and physical benefits of Swedish Massage, particularly in addressing low mood.

It is possible that you come, with the view to relax or to invigorate; my approach will be adapted to your needs and pre-blended aromatherapy oils will be applied to your skin, amplifying the benefits of the treatment. 

Calming music will be played, lights dimmed and you will lay on the couch, covered in a towel, having removed the clothes that you are comfortable with - when I am out of the room.

Only the relevant areas of the body will be exposed during treatment, modesty maintained at all times.  The body carries us through life but it is just a vessel to our souls. 

There is nothing to be embarrassed about and we all come in different sizes and shapes; the couch holds 340 kg, making the treatment accessible to all.

A bottled water will be provided to you at the end of treatment, instead of a glass, due to Covid-19 restrictions.

The following Swedish Massage treatments can be offered:

£35 per hour, 1.5 hours £50 

Swedish Massage, NVQ Level 3 (Mi:Skin)

A powerful and healing treatment, which is quick, invasive and can be completed sitting or lying on the therapy couch. 

Reducing tension and stress, clearing chakras, improving mood, blood/lymph flow and inducing relaxation and general sense of wellbeing, and much more.

Based on the traditional form of champi (head massage) which has been practiced in India for over 1,000 years. 

It is a complete treatment involving: back, neck, shoulders, arms, scalp, face and hair. Using a range of relaxing movements to include: effleurage (gentle stroking), petrissage (firm pressure), frictions (stretching tissue), tapotement (striking), vibrations (gentle shaking) and pressure (pressure points).

Oils such as coconut, sesame and almond can be applied to your hair, if this is your wish, resulting in lustrous hair. It is recommended that the oils remain on the hair for three hours, allowing its full affects to occur. 

Head massage increases nourishment and oxygen to the scalp and hair follicle, stimulating hair growth, in addition to reducing stress.

Preferrred choice for relaxation, stress and pain reduction, also aids in the loosening of tight muscles.

Hot stone massage dates back to over 3,000 years in ancient India and China.

The massage routine is no different to that of a Swedish Massage, except bassalt stones, which are volcanic and rich in iron-heated at 55 c-are used instead of hands.

Whereas Swedish Massage promotes lymphatic drainage, muscle elongation and blood flow, Hot Stone Massage has the following unique properties:
 

• It is invigorating: the heat dilates the capillaries, encouraging fresh blood to the areas, flushing out built up elements e.g. lactic acid, and increases mental relaxation.
• Provides reief from pain: the application of direct heat has been proven to have health benefits for a range of conditions, including chronic conditions such as arthritis.
• Like Swedish Massage, Hot Stone Massage increases circulaton due to the heat loosening the muscles; increasing blood flow, carrying nutrients and oxygen to vital organs. 
• Increased circulatoin also increases cell growth of the skin, resulting in better complexion.
   

Extremely relaxing ; more often than not I have to wake clients at the end of the treatment.

£40 per hour and £60 for 1.5. hours 

“Hopi” is named after the native American Pueblo tribe, used herbs and smoke to sweat lodges and in healing.  Today Hopi candles are used as a healing and relaxation treatment.

For the treatment, you lay on you your side on the therapy couch, fully clothed with a warm blanket covering you. 

The lit candle is placed in the ear canal, my hand covering the ear to seal the smoke and support the candle. 

The process is extremely relaxing, as the candle burns crackling is heard and the relaxing properties of the smoke take effect. 

The candle will normally burn for eight – 18 minutes, once extinguished you’ll be asked to turn and the process is repeated in the other ear.  It is common for clients to fall asleep during this treatment.

The benefits of ear candling include: soothing and clearing energy in the head and sinuses, encouraging relaxation, reducing stress, clears upper respiratory pathways and can help reduce headaches and loosen infected material associated with mild colds and sinusitis.

Following the candling treatment, you will receive a head and facial massage to help stimulate lymphatic circulation and aid the removal of toxins. 

From an aesthetic point of view, facial massage has the additional advantage of reducing fine lines and promoting collagen.

Only Boisun Hopi candles are used, which are approved by the EC kitemark and the CE regulatory body.

Balancing work, homelife and finances can prove stressful for the most resourceful of people.  Often our emotional and physical health become second thoughts, when they should be our main priority.  Health equals wealth, and without or emotional or physical health, our focus, vest for life and enthusiasm dwindle. 

Far too often, people will seek the assistance of a medical doctor to alleviate their pain, because no other options have been explored or made available to them.

Both Maternity Reflexology and Maternity Massage are considered beneficial in supporting mothers as they prepare for childbirth, and in promoting emotional well-being during this significant and sensitive period.

I offer reflexology and/or massage to expectant mothers with non-complicated pregnancies, please read on for the benefits of each treatment.

Reflexology

The Association of Reflexology states that research has shown that Maternity Reflexology can:

• Significantly reduce pain during labour
• Reduce the length of the first stage of labour
• Enhance postnatal women's sleep quality

Another benefit is that it can help promote relaxation and a sense of calm.

I do not treat pregnant women before 12 weeks. At the second trimester, a full hour treatment can be offered and a shorter session for the third trimester, combined with another treatment if desired.

Second trimester

A 60-minute treatment session is recommended, with emphasis on the bladder, uterus, ovaries, diaphragm, as well as the circulatory and endocrine systems.

Third trimester

At this stage, weekly or fortnightly shorter treatments are recommended. Therefore, 30 minutes of Reflexology and 30 minutes of another treatment could be an option, please see below for further information.

A tailored massage to your individual needs can be a very beneficial experience. Research has shown that massage during pregnancy and childbirth can benefit mother and child, reducing pain and discomfort in pregnancy and labour, promoting good physical and emotional health.

Maternity massage is very similar to Swedish Message, the main difference is your positioning on the couch, which could either be:

• Side-lying on a couch with one leg crossed, supported by pillows for a complete body massage
• Sitting on a stool facing couch – elbows and head resting on couch, with back exposed for a soothing back, neck and shoulder massage
