The hot stone massage is a form of alternative medicine massage therapy and bodywork involving the placement of a number of  heated  stones to the body for the purpose of pain relief, relaxation and therapy. 

Stone massages are primarily used to alleviate physical pain issues, however, are also used to promote emotional and spiritual wellbeing in practice.

During a hot stone massage, the techniques of a regular massage are applied. However, the stones are also placed on specific parts of the body to loosen tight muscles and tendons.  The stones are smooth and usually made of basalt volcanic chosen because they retain heat.

They are then placed onto specific areas of the body, such as:

• the back
• the stomach
• the face
• the hands
• the feet
•  Holding the stones to massage more deeply into the muscles without more pressure, helping you  to further relax.  (Gina)

Lomi lomi is a traditional Hawaiian massage that uses a combination of massage techniques, nut oils, and sometimes elements of prayer, breathing and dance to restore energy and soothe the body. It is also known as the 'loving hands' massage. This name helps to explain its principles - the massage works gently yet deeply into the muscles with continuous, flowing strokes, allowing the recipient to relax and give in to the nurturing touch.

Lomi lomi works from the belief that memories are not just stored in the brain and mind, but also in every cell of the human body. The long, continuous strokes of the massage are designed to help the body let go of its old patterns and behaviours, which can cause as many stresses and strains as muscle tension.

Lomi lomi aims to treat the body and mind as one whole being. It is thought to:

• release tension
• assist blood and lymph flow
• eliminate waste and stimulate toxins
• rejuvenate the body
• instill a sense of peace, harmony and wellbeing.

In Hawaii, lomi lomi is used to treat children with upset stomachs and soothe women in labor. A lomi lomi therapist will facilitate your healing.  (Gina)

Cupping is a type of alternative therapy that originated in China. It involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. The suction may facilitate healing with blood flow.  Some also claim the suction helps facilitate the flow of “qi” in the body.  Many Taoists believe that cupping helps balance yin and yang, within the body. Restoring balance between these two extremes is thought to help with the body’s resistance to pathogens as well as its ability to increase blood flow and reduce pain.

Cupping increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This may relieve muscle tension, which can improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair. It may also help form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue. 

(Cupping can be booked as a standalone treatment or added onto treatments with Gina)
