SPECIALIST MASSAGE THERAPIST- LORNA SENIOR

This is an extremely relaxing therapy and includes head, neck and shoulders.
Aromatherapy Massage
Lighter than the sports massage, this is holistic massage using blends of pure plant essential oils, promoting physical and psychological well-being.
Hot Stone Massage

Polarity Therapy
Light and medium pressure is applied to the positive, negative and neutral wiring in the body, increasing the flow of energy, dispersing tension and creating well-being.
