When it is over you feel calm and content yet invigorated and energised. Your wellbeing improved and your stress levels reduced. Choose between total, full, mini and pregnancy. This treatment is truly the best hands on massage you’ll ever have!
Stone Therapy– geothermotherapy – geo referring to the rocks of the earth; thermo relating to the use of heating and cooling effects to stimulate the body’s natural functions; and therapy for healing. The heat from the volcanic basalt stones penetrates deep into the muscle, loosening and soothing any tightness. The ice cold marble calms inflammation, clears toxins and creates a rejuvenating effect on the skin. This treatment is powerful and perfect.
Warm Bamboo – Wow! This treatment is new and amazing. Using varying lengths of warmed bamboo to knead and roll the muscles you get a deep tissue massage like no other. The heat from the bamboo warms and relaxes the muscles deep down, the length of the bamboo allows for even pressure over a larger area of the body. Great for aching muscles and fantastic for relaxation. This treatment is not available anywhere else in Hull or the surrounding area.
Lava Shells – These polished tiger clam shells are heated up by insterting a sachet of minerals containg magnesium and iron with sea kelp and other natural ingredients. This is mixed with a saline solution to cause a thermo reaction. As they glide over your body the heat penetrates your muscles giving you a deeply relaxing sensation. Using the various surfaces of the shell are used to knead way your troubles. As these shells stay hot for up to two hours, plenty of time to restore balance to your body and mind. A luxurious and pampering experience. We are the only practitioners of this treatment in the local area.
