STRESS AFFECTS ON YOUR ADRENAL HEALTH

Are you feeling tired, have you chronic pain or not sleeping properly?  Are you emotionally drained? It may be down to your adrenal glands…… The adrenal glands are the two glands that sit on top of your kidneys.  They are involved in producing over 50 hormones (including adrenaline and cortisol) that drive almost every bodily function. They work closely with the pituitary and hypothalamus glands to control all the hormones - and they are essential to our health and wellbeing. When the adrenals are over-worked or tired, it makes the body feel pretty awful. You may suffer with anxiety, poor sleep, pain or emotional issues. The adrenal glands pick up on what you experience, they are receptors of anything that is stressful to you – emotionally, mentally and physically. Something I hear from clients is that [...]

What Massage Therapy Can Do For You

So many studies have shown massage therapy to be an effective treatment for reducing stress levels as well as pain and muscle tension. Stimulating the soft tissues of the body will release toxins.

What is Thai Foot Massage?

How Thai Foot Massage is different from Reflexology The main difference is the importance of massage within the treatment. Thai Foot Massage is more about using massage to encourage the flow of energy, a special stick is also used to stimulate the reflex points on the feet.  Thai foot massage includes massage on the lower legs up to the knee.

Cupping Therapy Explained

What is Cupping? Cupping therapy is actually an ancient form of medicine originating in China that involves a therapist applying suction to certain parts of the body using silicone “cups.” The idea is to produce a vacuum effect that loosens tight muscles and improves blood flow through the body, particularly in the areas to which the silicone cups are applied. Cupping gets fluids that have been stagnant in the body moving, which has numerous benefits. What are the Benefits of Cupping Therapy? 1. Pain and Inflammation Relief Cupping therapy has been proven to reduce back pain, making it a great option to naturally relieve aches and inflammation. 2. Relaxation Much like massage therapy itself, cupping is a deeply relaxing process. As the blood flow through your body increases, you may notice a warming [...]
