Holistic Facial Massage

This is Earthereal's own creation: the best elements of different massage styles, brought together in a relaxing treatment which encourages blood flow to the head and face, benefiting muscles and encouraging the removal of toxins. The shoulders and neck area are treated as this is an area where most of us carry tension, with the marma points in the area included in the massage, followed by an Ayurvedic-inspired marma point massage of the head and face. Working with the marmas provides an energetic element to the massage, encouraging energy flow and balance. Gentle stroking and smoothing movements, with stimulation of the face and scalp and "lifting" of the face, increase relaxation and increase blood flow to the area, followed by light drainage to encourage the removal of toxins and "puffiness."

This massage thus includes elements of Indian and Chinese massage as well as the Ayurvedic marma work, and can include an Ayurvedic face mask to suit the client's dosha. It is a very gentle, calming and nurturing treatment and can be beneficial to the client in many ways.

Natural Lift Facial Massage

The ultimate pamper treat, this relaxing therapy uses elements from both Indian and Japanese facial massage to provide a thorough "workout" for the neck, shoulders and face.

In addition to the techniques used to relax the neck muscles and improve blood flow to the face and head, the massage includes stimulation of the major tsubos, or pressure points, on the face to encourage the body's energy to flow freely and to promote well-being on all levels. Smoothing and lifting of the face, and gentle drainage of toxins, all help to bring about a feeling of calm, and clients who have experienced it report an indefinable "glow" to the complexion. This can help to make the recipient feel, any maybe even look, younger!

It is suggested that to obtain maximum benefit from this treatment, a minimum of 4 treatments are received within about a month. I offer a substantial discount for advance booking and payment for 4 sessions.

Why not experience this fabulous treatment for yourself or as a gift for someone special? (Gift vouchers are available) Men enjoy it as well as women!

(Be warned: you may well fall asleep during the treatment, so don't plan to do too much after your facial massage!)

Ayurvedic Facial Massage

This wonderful energy therapy uses the principles of Ayurveda (the ancient Indian healing system, coming from "Ayur" meaning "life" and "veda" meaning "science" or "knowledge") to use the oils and face mask ingredients most appropriate for each client by determining their "dosha" or personality type. Gentle massage of the "marma points", which are similar to acupressure points, stimulates and clears energy flow while providing a relaxing, calming experience, and a few elements from the NLFM are incorporated to provide a smoothing and lifting of the face. Finally, a natural face mask appropriate to the client's dosha, including ingredients such as oatmeal, honey and fruit, is applied to enhance the skin's appearance. If appropriate, crystals may be laid on the client while they relax with the mask on.

Clients report a feeling of clear-headedness as well as relaxation following this therapy, which may make it a good one to experience before exams, interviews or other situations where a relaxed but clear thinking approach is needed.

"It was lovely, and my face definitely has a glow! I hope I can find time to have the full 4 treatments." (Mrs W, Skipton)
