Visiting Practitioners

We work with a number of visiting well-being practitioners

Chris Stevens-James - Deep Tissue / Sports Massage

Chris has been a member of the salon team since 2014. During his time with us he has responded to the needs of our clients by creating a unique treatment of Deep Tissue Sports Massage with Hot Stones.

By blending three specialized massage therapies into one, Chris has developed a massage treatment that is both an effective therapy for chronic or persistent aches and pains, muscle injuries and joint pain, and is also deeply relaxing and stress relieving.

Within each treatment you will receive…

Hot Stones Massage – relaxes and soothes your muscles to melt away tension and emotional stress.  

 

Deep Tissue Massage – releases postural tension, muscle spasms, trigger points, and fascial congestion.  

Sports Massage Therapy – mobilises and manipulates your muscles and joints so you can move more freely.

If you haven’t tried this massage yet, Chris is currently offering an introductory discount of £15 off your first 1 hour treatment. So there’s no better time to experience the benefits!

 Chris will be running his clinics in the salon Wednesday – Saturday’s every week.

Samuel - Holistic Therapies

Samuel brings over 19 year experience in massage and skin care. He will be running clinics in the salon on Friday mornings

Feel great – Myofascial dry cupping works well to relieve long standing pain, improve joint mobility, minimize headaches, increase blood circulation, reduce sciatica, aid the reduction of back, neck and shoulder pain. This may improve and extend your active lifestyle. The physical relaxation leads to mental relaxation thus helping reduce stress and anxiety, while also promoting sleep.

Look great – Myofascial dry cupping is also amazing to aid in the reduction of cellulite and oedema. It also assists pre and post surgery recovery and promotes lymphatic drainage.

 

What is Myofascial Dry Cupping?

Silicon cups are placed on the body. Then a vacuum is formed, lifting the soft tissue, creating a stretch within the muscle and fascia. This stretch effect, helps improve blood flow, reduce muscle tension and pain. Along with other benefits.

What happens during a treatment?

Samuel will complete a consultation and develop a treatment plan specific for you. Oil is applied to the treatment area. The cups are left in a static position or moved to provide a deep tissue massage effect. This helps break down scar tissue, realign fascia, improve circulation and reduce cellulite. This also helps improve mobility. During the treatment other massage techniques are used to complement the positive effects. 

After the treatment?
The vacuum can sometimes cause circular marks, where the cups have been due to increased blood supply. These may last a few days after the treatment. You will feel very relaxed and an increase in mobility may take affect.

Other treatments Samuel offers:

  • Facial Treatments – Look beautiful, radiant and youthful with a targeted treatment addressing your skins concerns. Reduce fine lines and wrinkles, firming, lifting, improve skin tone and deep cleansing. 
  • Swedish Massage – Feel revived and renewed with a relaxing adaptive massage with pressure to suit your choice.
  • Aromatherapy Massage – Enhance your mental and physical relaxation with the therapeutic benefits of essential oils.
  • Deep Tissue Massage – A firm massage using elbows and knuckles to release physical tension and emotional stress.
  • Pregnancy Massage

Jessie Way - Hypnotherapy

Jessie will be running clinics in the salon on various days, please enquire to book.

“Hypnotherapy can be described as a focused state of awareness. It is a talking therapy which uses hypnosis to facilitate change in habits, behaviours and thoughts.  Sessions are collaborative, and the suggestions that are presented by the therapist during a session are accepted by the client willingly.  If the odd suggestion doesn’t resonate, the client can simply choose to ignore it.  The therapist guides the client into a very relaxed state, and then into a state of hypnosis, throughout which the client will always be awake and aware and in complete control, albeit with their eyes closed.

Conditions hypnotherapy can help with are stress relief, anxiety relief and relaxation.  These are extremely popularly and successfully tended to with hypnotherapy. 

General wellbeing, including but not limited to:

  • Confidence
  • Self esteem
  • Assertiveness
  • Goal achievement
  • Motivation
  • Insomnia
  • Phobias
  • Weight management

 

It is typical to expect 3 to 4 sessions of hypnotherapy for lasting change and results.  These can be taken weekly or fortnightly, or however works best for you.  It might be that an extra session or two is required, or it might be that one or two less are required, but do prepare for 3 to 4 sessions and we can see how it goes.  Changes are not always immediately obvious and sometimes work can take a little while to settle.   

Packages are available of multiple sessions with a discount but you are always welcome to book session by session if you prefer.

When working with Jessie, you’ll find a warm, friendly and welcoming therapist who is keen to help you and who is well qualified to do so.  Having trained in the USA over 15 years ago, and again in London via one of the most comprehensive and respected schools there is, Jessie has training that supersedes the UK Core Curriculum and is constantly pursuing continued education and also seeks clinical supervision to ensure she is practicing to the highest standards and delivering the very best service.
