Reiki healing

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. Based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us all, this treatment harnesses universal energy to restore balance and wellbeing. If this life force energy is low, a person is more likely to suffer from stress and illness; if it is high, they will lead a healthier and more balanced life.

Reiki can be received either seated or lying down, and the client remains fully clothed throughout. Marisa’s hands may be held just above the body or gently placed upon it, concentrating healing energy where it is needed most. She will balance the energy in the seven major chakras and focus on wherever else healing is required. Within minutes, the healing energy begins to flow, and clients may experience sensations of warmth, tingling, heat or cold from the practitioner’s hands – and almost always a profound sense of being cared for.

Reiki is deeply relaxing and beneficial to the body, mind and spirit. It is suitable for people of any age and can also be used on animals.

This treatment can be combined with any of Marisa’s other therapies or enjoyed as a standalone session.

Indian Head Massage

Indian head massage is carried out through clothing with the client comfortably seated in a chair. Using gentle, nurturing techniques, Marisa works on the shoulders, back, arms, neck, head and face, finishing with a beautiful chakra balancing technique that leaves you feeling centred and restored.

This deeply relaxing treatment melts away stress and tension, whether muscular or emotional, and is particularly beneficial for those who suffer from migraines, headaches, sinusitis, upper back or shoulder pain, jaw or facial tension, insomnia or stress of any kind.

Indian head massage leaves you with a profound sense of peace, calmness and deep wellbeing – a moment of pure nurturing for body, mind and spirit.

 

Gentle Touch/ The ‘M’ Technique

Marisa is trained in the ‘M’ Technique – a beautifully structured method of gentle, intentional touch that works on the skin receptors, sending calming signals directly to the brain. So profoundly relaxing is this technique that it has been described as physical hypnotherapy, ‘a kind of meditation’ and a ‘spiritual dance.’

Unlike massage, the ‘M’ Technique is more akin to a choreographed dance – each movement and sequence performed a set number of times, at a consistent pressure and speed, creating a deeply rhythmic and hypnotic experience. It can be applied directly to the skin or through thin clothing, making it wonderfully accessible and gentle.

This technique is particularly suited to the very fragile, critically ill or actively dying individual, or for anyone simply in need of deep comfort and calm. Offered as a full body experience or focused on the hands and feet, it brings gentle relief to those experiencing insomnia, lower back pain, migraines, end of life agitation and general stress.

 

Traditional Thai Foot Massage

Drawing on over 2,000 years of ancient wisdom, this beautiful traditional technique works on the ‘Sen’ energy lines of the Ayurvedic tradition. Using a Thai foot stick to stimulate specific reflex points, and incorporating the deeply comforting practice of foot wrapping, this treatment is as nurturing as it is therapeutic.

Benefits of Thai Foot Massage:

• Improves circulation in the legs and feet
• Stimulates lymphatic drainage
• Assists the body in removing toxins
• Boosts and supports the immune system
• Increases oxygen flow to the feet and legs
• Reduces stiffness and improves flexibility

Abdominal Sacral Massage

A deeply therapeutic and profoundly healing treatment, Abdominal Sacral Massage brings together many healing modalities to address common complaints including bloating, constipation, painful or irregular periods, PMS, fertility, menopause and lower back pain.

Working by gently bringing the organs of the abdominal area back into alignment, this treatment releases pressure and strengthens the surrounding muscles and ligaments, improving blood, nerve and lymph flow throughout the body. Our gut holds more neurons than our brain and spinal cord combined — meaning that unwanted memories and emotions can sit and fester deep within us, waiting for us to find the courage to release them. The deep colon massage helps loosen hardened debris that may have been accumulating for years, encouraging natural movement and profound emotional release.
