Massage and bodywork

    INTUITIVE MASSAGE

    There are times in a massage when I use certain techniques that I have never used before. Where the energy guides the style of massage. Where it becomes purely creative. A dance, an interplay. This can easily happen in any of my massage styles, and I feel it is because I am connected to my client and their higher energy and personal guides, as well as my own inner higher guidance. A delight to experience. Sublime.

    DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

    Sometimes we have aches and pains, knots, soreness and fatigue. In these times, it is necessary to do deeper work: a deeper application of soft tissue techniques. At my practice, this may be included in an overall treatment or be a specific request for a full treatment. This type of massage encourages softness and restored flexibility in the body, using techniques such as trigger point therapy, acupressure, stretching, and stronger/deeper soft tissue applications.

    RELAXATION MASSAGE

    Relaxation massage has its basis in Swedish massage, sweeping, soothing and melding. When the need for a gentle and soothing experience is required. The scene is set, you can hear the ocean, it is warm, cosy or delightfully cool. My aim is for you to stop time for a while, surrender to the experience and allow yourself to deeply relax mind, body and spirit. You stop thinking or worrying, you can feel your body, you become connected to your body and to your spirit. You allow whatever result you need. Sometimes it is to be deeply relaxed allowing regeneration, sometimes it is to feel invigorated and restored.

    Ear Candling

    Ear Candling is a non-intrusive, relaxing way to assist with issues around the ear, nose, and throat. It can be helpful in the following ways:

    • Clears wax and debris from the ear canal

    • Relieves pressure from behind the eardrum

    • Sharpens mental functions, vision, hearing, taste, and colour perception

    • Eases earache, headache, sinus pressure, and allergies

    • Provides relaxation from the negative charge of the herbal smoke

    • Acts as a catalyst to clear nerve endings and promote healing.

    At Ambience, I offer two treatments:

    Basic treatment: Ear candling and a gentle 10-minute facial massage.

    45 minutes. $75

    Deluxe treatment: Ear candling, deluxe facial treatment, and neck, head, and shoulder massage.

    90 minutes. $160.00

    Lymph Treatment

    This technique can be offered as part of any treatment or as a full 90-minute to 2-hour treatment. Using gentle wave-like massage techniques just above the surface of the skin, you will benefit from this treatment in so many ways. A lymphatic treatment can:

    • Help the body build up natural resistance to illness and disease by assisting the immune system in defence.

    • Detoxify the body from daily stress, fatigue, pollution, and chemical overload.

    • Be great for the skin and skin conditions, improving elasticity and conditions such as psoriasis and acne.

    • Be excellent for reducing swelling and oedema, and reducing scar tissue.

    • Be essential for recovery and can be applied pre and post-surgery. Before surgery, a lymphatic massage can soften the skin in readiness for insertion.

    • Help to reduce oedema and swelling from injuries and general swelling.

    I personally believe this technique is essential for general health and wellbeing. Usually, with this treatment, it can become very interdimensional and provide deep cleansing spiritually and physically.
