MASSAGE


Massage is the treatment and practice of soft tissue manipulation with physical, functional, and in some cases psychological purposes and goals.[1] The word comes from the French massage "friction of kneading," possibly from Arabic massa "to touch, feel, handle" or from Latin massa "mass, dough". [2][3] (In distinction the ancient Greek word for massage itself was anatripsis [4], and the Latin was frictio.) An older etymology may even have been the Hebrew me-sakj "to anoint with oil."
Massage involves acting on and manipulating the client's body with pressure (structured, unstructured, stationary, and/or moving), tension, motion, or vibration done manually or with mechanical aids. Target tissues may include
muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, joints, or other connective tissue, as well as lymphatic vessels, and/or organs of the gastrointestinal system. Massage can be applied with the hands, fingers, elbows, forearm, and feet. There are over eighty different massage modalities. [5] The most cited reasons for introducing massage have been client demand and perceived clinical effectiveness.[6]
In professional settings massage involves the client being treated while lying on a massage table, sitting in a massage chair, or lying on a mat on the floor. The massage subject may be fully or partly unclothed. Parts of the body may be covered with towels or sheets.

MASSAGE

HOT STONE MASSAGE

Hot stone massage is a technique used in ancient cultures including Native American healing practice. Hot stones provide the benefits of thermal therapy with energy balancing properties. Thermal therapy, hot and cold, affects circulation and provides a method to reach deep tissue for healing.

What can I expect to experience in a hot stone massage?

Hot stone massage is almost self descriptive. The technique combines massage with the application of heated stones over the entire body, including the face, hands and feet. The stones become extensions of the therapist's hands, almost "replacing " them. The working stones are moved in a continuous fashion and turned in the hands of the therapist periodically during massage to give the best heat, then "tucked in" around different locations by the clients body. Due to this fact the massage experience takes on an entirely different feeling than general massage. It invokes a sensation of being sedative as a result of the warmth. The response during a relaxation treatment has been described as reverie or a "dream-like" state, floating in and out of consciousness. This is why I allow 2 hours for this treatment.

What kinds of stones are used?

Basalt stones are generally used by many practitioners for hot therapy. These are aged, volcanic rock smoothed by many years in rivers and oceans.

What are the benefits of hot stone massage?

Since hot stones are used to massage the body, you receive the same benefits as a Swedish massage, deep tissue massage and trigger point work. The added benefit is heat that penetrates the muscle and tendon providing deeper work with less pressure. The smooth texture of the rock and the heat provides dramatic stress reducing results. Many recipients go into a deep meditative state early in the session.

Some benefits include: an increase in circulation and lymph flow, lowered heart rate, therefore lower blood pressure, an increase in the release of endorphins, reduces pain, swelling, assists in alleviating acute and chronic problems. As for the therapist, it decreases the strains and injuries commonly caused to the thumbs and wrists – so it’s good for me too!!

Are there any contraindications for hot stone massage?

Diabetes, Neuropathy, Peripheral Vascular Disease, Uncontrolled Hypertension, Fever, Open Wounds or Skin Lesions, Acute Inflammation, Pregnancy (due to the rise in body temperature), any other condition which makes massage or heat applications inadvisable.

Hopi Ear Candles

Hopi Ear Candles
This is an ancient and natural therapy handed down by many civilisations. It is believed that the Ancient Greeks used ear candles, initially probably for cleansing, purifying and healing on a spiritual basis, but much later on a purely physical basis. However, the practice reached the modern world via the native American Hopi Indians of North Arizona (it's interesting to note that Hopi means peaceful people). Ear candles were used traditionally by Shamen healers. Ancient wall paintings show their importance in initiation rituals and healing ceremonies of the tribe. The candles are still made today on the basis of the old traditional formula originating from the Hopi Indians.How do Hopi Ear Candles work? The candles are made from the natural ingredients of beeswax, honey extracts, sage, St Johns Wort, chamomile, beta-carotene and organically grown flax. A constant high quality is ensured. The candles work on a chimney principle, drawing any impurities to the surface where they can be gently removed. They equalise the pressure in the head and ears, making them suitable for most conditions. Secretion flow is gently stimulated and the vapour collects and removes impurities or deposits. Most of these are carried away through the candle "chimney", although some of them can be found in the condensed candle wax residue after removal from the ear, or could even work their way up to the surface 24-48 hours after. What are Hopi Ear Candles used for? Though results may vary from patient to patient, some of my clients have reported Hopi Candles to be helpful with: Excessive or compacted wax in the ears (see patients comments) Irritation in ears and sinuses Pressure regulation in cases of : sinusitis / rhinitis / glue ear / colds / flu / headaches / migraine Stimulation of local and reflex energy flow Energetic revitalisation in cases of hearing impairment Relaxing and calming effect in cases of stress Noises in the ears, ringing, tinnitus Remember, if in doubt, always contact your GP.Are there any side effects? No contradictions are known to date but as a precaution, it is advisable not to use Hopi candles :If grommets are in place If there is inflammation or infection In the event of an allergic reaction to the contents. However, most clients find the treatment relaxing and regularly describe a "slight relieved feeling" in the ears and head but also a relaxing and calming effect on the whole system.Where long-term conditions are being treated, the client sometimes experiences slight headaches and occasional popping shortly after the treatment.What a typical Treatment Session entails You are asked to lie comfortably and listen to relaxing music. The candle is then gently placed into the auditory canal, where it is lit. I hold it in a vertical position, my hands keeping the candle steady and preventing any ash falling on to you. You will experience a pleasant crackling sound as the candle burns and a warm comfortable feeling. As the candle burns down, the residue ash (if it falls) will just turn to dust. The candle is then taken away while you lie there for a few moments before turning over to treat the other ear. Most clients find the whole experience very relaxing. Some fall asleep during treatment. After the candles have finished their work, you will receive a face, head and neck massage to really relax you even further and enhance the treatment of the candles.The hi-light of the treatment is to see what has been drawn up into the candle from your ear - not for the weak hearted!!! You will be amazed what you have been storing in your ears!!Frequently Asked Questions: Here are some typical questions asked. Hopefully anything you might want to know is covered somewhere on this page. If it isn't, don't hesitate to contact me.Does it help to have a treatment before taking a flight? Yes - if you have no ear infection and if you suffer with ears or sinus problems, it is a good idea to have a treatment prior to your flight to get rid of any excess wax. I suffer from a lot of ear wax and often have them syringed. Could I use these candles instead? Yes you could. I have a number of clients who previously endured the discomfort of syringing but now visit me for hopi treatment instead.

POSITIVE THOUGHT THERAPHY



Positive Thought Therapy (Eip of DNA)
The founder of this work, Margaret Ruby from Idaho USAQuoted from her literature she said “For years I had tried different ways to manifest health and abundance into my life. And then......I recognized blocked and resisted emotions were connected to physical and emotional illness, and I embarked on a quest to develop a specific technique to locate and remove these blocks. How could I permanently remove limiting beliefs? I read everything I could on the Mind-Body connection. I researched ancient and modern healing arts, metaphysical books, and new-age books. If it was recorded, I read about it. I went to self-help and personal growth seminars. Basically, I took them all apart and put them back together in different ways.I immersed myself and experimented, with varied results. My life would improve, and then I would slip back into the old patterns. And I would try again. Finally, ten years later...it was done. Simple. Clear. Effective. Written from experience and proved with success after success. This new technique, the foundation of all our energetic healing techniques, is astounding in its simplicity and effectiveness, is called Energy Interference Patterning of DNA (EIP of DNA).”The EIP process pinpoints destructive core belief patterns that have resisted other therapies and that interfere with energy flow, resulting in long-term illness and emotional distress. When the core belief is pulled, released, and replaced with a high vibration, energy flows freely, allowing spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical balance.Once our 12 strand DNA memory is awakened we then have access to the belief patterns being stored as stagnant energy around our cells that are creating disharmony, limitation or ill health. 12 strand DNA activation is a communication system that helps us to access the stagnant energy. It is a multi-dimensional communication system.Once the 12 strand DNA is activated another technique then pinpoints exactly where in our energy system we are storing this stagnant energy. Identifying the core belief that is creating the block or limitation within our life.Fears, phobias or that life just doesn’t seem to be working. However the disharmony may be manifesting in one’s life can be pinpointed with this technique and cleared at a deep cellular level.Stagnant energy from unresolved issues being held at a cellular level isn't always conscious as it may be genetic or from past life memory. This is what makes this technique so profound as this technique isn’t about thinking but about feeling. It is fascinating what is discovered and how easy it is to manifest a new reality.Once life force energy can flow through our cells the world becomes a joyful expansive place full of possibilities.Lisa Ireson became involved with this work through Margaret Ruby, and holds classes for the EIP work at her school, Crystal Dimensions in Norfolk. http://www.crystaldimensions.org/ Margaret also visits the UK at least once a year to teach these amazing classes. http://www.possibilitiesdna.com/ .

TYPES OF THERAPHY

Reflexology
Reflexology is a healing art based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet which correspond to all the glands, organs and other parts of the body. It is a natural, non-invasive way of stimulating the internal organs, thereby increasing circulation and restoring bodily functions to normal.Reflexology has been around for millennia. A pictograph found in an Egyptian tomb dated at about 2330 BC shows two men working on the feet of two other men. Reflexology has long been a part of Chinese medicine. Native Americans have practiced a form of it for generations. What are the benefits of Reflexology? Reflexology can reduce stress, relieve headache, treat digestive disorders, allergies, increase energy levels, improve circulation, cleanse the body of toxins and strengthen the immune system. Women may find it especially helpful in relieving menstrual cramps, pre-menstrual syndrome, and troublesome menopausal symptoms. Everyone can benefit from a Reflexology session from the very young to the very old. Those in good health can use Reflexology to relieve stress and maintain their health, while others experiencing health problems may gain relief from aches and pains, restoration of lost vitality.

Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is a truly holistic therapy, taking into account your mind, body and spirit. The use of essential oils and how to blend them with base oils/creams is a vast subject that requires at least a full year’s course with maybe even years of practice afterwards to become truly accomplished. But on the workshop, we will look at some of the more popular essential oils and their properties, and how to blend them with a base oil.There are many uses for aromatherapy, in a bath, inhaled, diffusers, room sprays, placed in lotions, creams and perfume. Whilst these possibilities will be discussed, we will be using our Aromatherapy blend for a back massage. Massage has so many benefits both physical and mental – physically it aids relaxation of your muscles, helps with lymphatic drainage to get rid of toxins in the body, and revitalises your blood flow. Mentally it allows you to totally ‘switch-off’ giving time to bring new thoughts into your mind. The feeling of touch is renowned for aiding healing and the combination is like a refresher boost to your entire system.

Crystal healing
Crystal Healing is by no means a new therapy. Crystals have been used since the beginning of time when it was believed that crystal forces set the electromagnetic field of the earth so that human souls could incarnate. Legends of the ancient continent of Atlantis tell us that crystals generated power for entire cities. It was speculated that Egyptian pyramids were capped with crystals to channel cosmic forces into these perfect structures. Many civilizations have used crystals and stones for healing and protection to the most powerful initiations.Crystals are composed of minute particles called atoms, which create energy and produce subtle vibrations. When used in healing and placed on the body, the crystals help raise your vibration to bring your energy into balance. With your body in balance it enables you to function wholly, fighting disease, combating stress that may lead to physical illness.Crystal healing is a very relaxing therapy. It enables you to ‘switch off’ from the world for a short while to enable your own self-healing. When I learnt crystal healing, with Lisa Ireson in Norfolk, (2000) it was the therapy that brought about the most changes to my life. A real journey of self-discovery.Like aromatherapy, the study of crystals is something that is learnt over a period of time. Time to enable you to become adjusted to ‘feeling’ and to raise your ‘intuition’. Everyone has the ability to use crystals –even if this is your first introduction to them. During the day we will look at chakras, energy centres in our body, and how they affect our everyday lives. We will use the energy that is naturally placed in our hands to ‘search’ each other’s energy field, the Aura.

AROMA AS AMEDICINE


1Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine that uses volatile liquid plant materials, known as essential oils (EOs), and other aromatic compounds from plants for the purpose of affecting a person's mood or health. Scientific evidence is weak and preliminary but mildly encouraging for a limited number of claims. Essential oils differ in chemical composition from other herbal products because the distillation process only recovers the lighter phytomolecules. For this reason essential oils are rich in monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, as well as other VOC substances (esters, aromatic compounds, non-terpene hydrocarbons, some organic sulfides etc.).
Aromatherapy is a generic term that refers to any of the various traditions that make use of essential oils sometimes in combination with other alternative medical practices and spiritual beliefs. Popular use of these products include massaging products, medicine, or any topical application that incorporates the use of essential oils to their products. It has a particularly Western currency and persuasion. Medical treatment involving aromatic compounds may exist outside of the West, but may or may not be included in the term 'aromatherapy'.

AROMA MASSAGE TECHNIQE


The essential oils which refers to oils that come from the essence of plants - are a little oily, very fragrant, and usually too concentrated to be used undiluted. For this reason essential oils are typically blended with a carrier oil - such as jojoba or grapeseed oil - in order to dilute them so they dont harm the clients skin.
The essential oils used are determined by the massage therapist. They are chosen to therapeutically treat the emotional disorders of the client through the olfactory glands (through smell). Aromatherapy massage works when essential oils are inhaled by the client. When the fragrant oils are inhaled, a chemical message is sent to the brain which triggers a certain emotional response.
Oftentimes the oils chosen for aromatherapy massage are meant to tap into the clients memory. These can be smells that remind the client of a time when they felt happy, safe, relaxed, peaceful or energized. The combination of the senses - the emotion elicited by the scent of the essential oil and the sensation of touch - is how aromatherapy massage makes a client feel relaxed, stimulated, peaceful or euphoric, depending on their desired emotional response. This combination can also provide stress relief and pain relief, help aid a sleeping disorder or physical condition, or energize the mind and body.
Before your first aromatherapy massage session, your massage therapist will conduct an initial consultation with you to learn about your desired outcome. They might ask about the current state of your work life, home life, physical health and mental state to learn about what you need. Following the consultation, the massage therapist will select several essential oils specific to your mental and physical conditions, and blend them into a massage oil to be used during your first massage. Many massage therapists will also give you a small blend of the essential oil to use at home between sessions.
Aromatherapy massage is performed on nude clients; however the therapist will leave the room so that you can undress in privacy. In addition a sheet or towel will be available for you to cover yourself during the massage. The only time the massage therapist will pull back the sheet is to work on a specific body part. If you are uncomfortable, please notify your massage therapist immediately.

10 WAYS TO HEALTH LOOK


Study beauty role models: Not to wish you looked like them, but to notice their uniqueness. Think Lauren Hutton’s gap-toothed smile, Andie MacDowell’s tightly-curled hair, Susan Sarandon’s subtle smile lines. Embrace your own unique features.Splurge on a great haircut: Well-cut hair always looks gorgeous, making you feel that much more beautiful.Break a bad habit: If you bite your nails, stop. Pick at dry skin? Hands off! Then celebrate your new, good habit with a manicure or a luxe body cream.Embrace your hair: Wrestling with your tresses usually results in a less-than-pretty outcome. Instead, learn to work with your curls or sleekness, and your hair is guaranteed to look better.Pare down your makeup: You most likely don’t need foundation, cover-up, cream blush, lip liner, eye liner, eye shadow, contour cream, lip gloss, matte powder…. Instead, limit yourself to the basics and see your skin shine through.Find your perfect lipstick: One that looks ultra-natural and that brings out your eyes works best (and looks great when you’re wearing no other makeup at all!). Ask a cosmetic salesperson for suggestions.For one full day, wear no makeup: Be sure it’s a day when you have to venture outside, even if it’s only to go to the drugstore! Note how people treat you just the same when you’re barefaced as when you’re “done.”Keep your eyebrows groomed: Makeup artists swear that well-kept eyebrows pull your look together, even without any makeup at all.Get real: It’s okay to admit you’ll never look like Cindy Crawford or Patty Hansen. It’s also okay to be happy about it!List your life successes: Chances are, they are all things that have nothing to do with your looks. Looks are just one part of your awesome package!

AROMATHERAPHY&CHILDREN



Aromatherapy and ChildrenAs in case of adults, aromatherapy works wonderfully in case of children too; a cool aromatic bath in a tub is always eagerly awaited by your children. Many essential oils can be used to treat many ailments and conditions of your growing children. How ever, care must be taken in treating children with essential oils, although there are many numbers of safe ones. If used in original concentration, oils may work adversely and cause skin burn and irritation.Most common dosage for any aromatic oil would be one-third to one-half the adult dose, or a 1-percent dilution (five or six drops of essential oil per ounce of carrier oil), and don't forget that citruses may irritate the skin.
Chamomile, Melissa and fennel are usually used as massage oil, or taken as herb tea. These oils are known to soothe a variety of tummy-aches-and the problems that can lead to stomachaches, such as frayed nerves, anxiety and over excitability. More common problems like colic, gas pains, and nausea and food allergies are also treated by oils. A chamomile, fennel and Melissa herb tea with licorice helps stop crying and fussing in infants with colic. Essential oils relieve muscle spasms caused when babies swallow air as they eat. Herbal gripe water is still being used all over the world to get rid of colic pains. A carminative water mix contains fennel, chamomile, caraway, coriander and bitter orange peel, all known to kill bacteria and relieve flatulence.
Most digestive problems are reduced by a simple tummy massage using one of the oils. Tummy-Rub Oil can be formulated as follows:2 drops Roman chamomile 1 drop fennel 2 drops dill1 drop Melissa1 ounce carrier oilMix together and massage the tummy gently.
A suggested treatment for children before bedtime is a warm lavender and chamomile essential-oil bath. Most children just love taking aromatherapy baths, particularly if they have their own personal blends. Popular fragrances include orange, grapefruit and tangerine-all antidepressants and relaxants. Nature's gentle but powerful relaxant teas such as Melissa, lavender and chamomile has the property to calm a nervous, over stimulated, over excited child, make headaches go away and gently induce sleep.
Placing a cool compress of lavender on the forehead will give much needed relief from a headache, sleeplessness or over exertion. Frankincense used as a vaporizer or as massage oil is safe and effective for respiratory congestion or infection. Other safe essential oils for children include mandarin, marjoram, neroli, jasmine and petit grain. Tea of yarrow, catnip, peppermint and elder flower rare known to reduce the symptoms of measles, chicken pox or mumps; ginger with a touch of lemon juice is also effective. The soreness of mumps is lessened by syrups and gargles made from teas of thyme, rosemary or sage. Antiviral oils made from Melissa and bergamot has proven effective against the mumps and chicken-pox viruses. For teething pain in toddlers and young children, give chamomile tea and rub the gums with a little diluted clove oil on your finger.
The following formula may be used for swollen tonsils, mumps and other lymphatic swelling in the neck area: Neck Wrap2 cups warm water8 drops lavender essential oil
Mix the water with the essential oil. While the water is still warm, soak a soft cloth, preferably flannel, in the water and wring it out. Wrap the cloth around the neck. Cover with a towel to hold in the heat. Remove before it gets cold. Repeat as many times as you wish.
Essential oils are universal in nature, as they are known to work in every condition, in all times of the year. Essential oils prove very handy in times of distress and need; a few drops of essential oil are all needed to reduce the symptoms in children.

Built back in the 10th century, the incredible well of Chand Baori, India was a practical solution to the water problem in the area. The arid climate forced the locals to dig deep for a dependable water source, one that would last throughout an entire year. Chand Baori well is 30 meters deep, it has 13 floors and 3,500 steps. Legends say that ghosts build it in one night and that it has so many steps to make it impossible for someone to retrieve a coin once it’s been dropped in the well.



Chand Baori, in the village of Abhaneri near Bandikui, Rajasthan. Stepwells, also called bawdi or baoli are in essence wells in which the water can be reached by descending a set of steps. They may be covered and protected, and are often of architectural significance.
