Home » Men's Treatments » Massage

Massage is used to maintain physical health as well as inducing relaxation. It helps to alleviate the build up of stress and tension in the muscles from every day use. Swedish massage uses massage techniques specifically aimed to relax your muscles as the main purpose is to increase oxygen flow to the muscles and aid the body to remove the build up of toxins.

Swedish massage tends to be a much deeper massage than Aromatherapy massage therefore is more suited to sports people or those seeking deep tissue massage. Our massage therapists use soft relaxing background music to help draw the mind and body into a completely relaxed state.

Hot stone massage goes beyond the physical experience of typical massage and enters even deeper dimensions of relaxation, health and well-being. Hot stone massage combines traditional massage with the use of smooth, heated basalt stones, which are applied to the body as an extension of the massage therapist's hands. Cold stones can also be used to aid healing and this therapy is clinically known as "Geothermotherapy". The massage is 10 times more effective than a normal massage. The warmth of these heated stones penetrates muscles and balances the nervous system like no other treatment.
