          Holistic-Therapeutic Body Massage (a little similar in style to Swedish massage) can be adapted to suit your needs.  My method of massage is nurturing and holistic. My technique has evolved and developed over time creating a tailored made massage that meets the needs of each individual client. This results in specific health rewards for the receiver and a positive recognition that my work has made a real difference.  My aim is to give you the client a feeling of overall well-being, physically,  mentally calm and revitalized. 

          With over 26 years qualified experience in this field, I have the knowledge that massage is indeed not to be overlooked as a method of preventative healthcare and also a hugely successful way to revitalize and listen to your body’s physiology and to support your mental health.

              The work Michael does with clients is quite deep and technical and can be intense, but he tries to make it as pleasant as possible and explains what he is doing and why as he works. He encourages clients to regularly communicate throughout the session so that they can find the source of pain and treat it, with the aim of providing a release and longer-term healing.

                Stephen has a particular interest in pain management and hypnohealing.

                Hypnosis is a state of mind related to deep relaxation, increased suggestibility and narrowed focus.  Hypnotherapy is when hypnosis is used for therapeutic purposes.  Hypnotherapy is a complimentary medicine in which the power of the mind is used to make changes and reach positive outcomes.

                “I assist the client to enter a very relaxed state of hypnosis and then make positive suggestions that help the subconscious mind achieve desired goals.  Hypnotherapy can help people reach their goals in a number of different areas, such as; stopping smoking, overcoming fears, boosting mood, insomnia, pain management, stress management, weight management.”

                  Adrian uses an integrative approach but practises mostly psychodynamically, where the unconscious is made conscious through the exploration of emotions and our defences to them.

                  Supervision

                    Supervision work can be of individuals or groups in all helping professions, including coaching and counselling. Often it is a professional requirement to have a supervisor but this should not be seen as the only reason to request supervision. Working with a supervisor is not… Read More »Supervision
