  • Indian Head Massage

    Indian Head Massage is an ancient tradition still practised by many families in India today. An Indian Head Massage is highly relaxing to receive while remaining seated. It does not involve undressing or necessarily using oils and can be given in the home or office. Head massage aims to free blockages in vital energy pathways throughout the whole body, easing everything from a headache to a sluggish immune system. The touch is gentle. Uplifting strokes are applied to the upper back, shoulders, arms & neck to enhance relaxation. The scalp is then massaged prior to gentle finger pressure being applied to the face to stimulate acupressure points. Finally, the chakra centres are balanced promoting a conscious contact with the deepest purest aspects of the divine self. Explore this natural health care for yourself, family, friends & clients. Kerry has a Diploma in Remedial Massage.

  • Tai Chi for Beginners

    Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese system of exercise that consists of slow, graceful, peaceful, flowing movements. One of the avowed aims of Tai Chi is to foster the circulation of Chi (energy) within the body. This Chi circulates in patterns that are closely related to the nervous & vascular systems and, thus, is closely connected with the practice of acupuncture & other oriental, healing arts. Patrice has been teaching Tai Chi for 16 years and has a passion to help others gain energy & vitality in a safe environment.

It can be used at home, personally, or professionally to promote general health & wellbeing. Kerry has a Diploma in Reflexology.
