Holistic Massage for Women
Designed for pure relaxation.
Suitable for the most sensitive of souls.
Holistic means "the whole of something, or someone, and not just a part".
Designed for pure relaxation and suitable for even the most sensitive of souls.
These nervous system-based sessions invite the whole of you to wind down into rest.
The resulting state of calm will do double the work of any hard pressure, filtering through to all the physical tissues leaving nothing but lightness and ease.
This full body massage uses a range of techniques in slow, soothing pressures that feel appropriate for you and your body on the day. They may feel light, but they are no less 'deep'.
Taking time to relax, re-balance and connect to our inner self is vital for health and wellbeing.
Try it for relaxation or to ease tension, stress or pain.
This session doesn't include any assessment or specific injury or remedial treatment. If you're looking for that please rebook choosing an MFR session.
Available in 60 or 90 minutes.
"Had a deeply restorative holistic massage by Alex, by far the best massage I have ever received, at times I felt like I was falling or floating, just what I needed, beautiful unrushed non-corporation experience.”

Frequently asked questions about Holistic Massage
What is downregulation of the nervous system?
This term refers reducing the activity of the sympathetic nervous system (the "fight-or-flight" survival mode part) and activating the parasympathetic nervous system (the "rest-and-digest" recovery mode part.
It sends physical signals to the body that you are safe, lowering heart rate, reducing stress hormones like cortisol, and releasing muscle tension
I prefer firm pressure. Is this massage for me?
Yes, and no.
It's true that some people find strong and even painful stimulus more relaxing, but that's not the route taken here.
Deep doesn't mean pressing hard.
If you're open to trying a new approach you may discover how powerful nervous system downregulation can be at easing tissue tension.
Do you offer a neck back & shoulder massage?
Yes, and no.
I am hoping to show you how much more to a massage there can be.
These massages are designed to be a whole body experience.
You will always need to book a full body session and it's recommended you try that as your first session.
But the consultation gives us time to discuss what might be best for you in the time we have.
Regular clients might want to give focus to specific areas such as head, neck, limbs or back.
I want someone else to relax. Can I book it for them?
Yes. Gift vouchers are available.
But be aware not everyone is comfortable with quiet time, or with slow, mindful touch.
Make sure the person you're booking for will be comfortable with that and enjoy the experience.
If you are in doubt, ask them.
I can post vouchers to your home or supply them digitally.
