Facial Reflexology
Having a facial reflexology treatment can be especially luxurious. This amazingly relaxing therapy is a treatment for anyone. It makes a wonderful gift for someone who deserves a bit of pampering. It can be ideal if the client is not happy with people touching their feet or hands.
Facial Reflexology is based on the principle that the face contains reflexes through the ten zones of the body, exactly like foot reflexology. It brings deep calm and relaxation to the client, helping them to de-stress and let go. On top of this, the facial skin, circulation and lymphatic system ...

Yoga Nidra
We are currently looking for a venue in Allestree for group yoga classes. Please contact me if you are aware of a large warm room locally
Yoga Nidra is loosely translated as 'Yoga-Sleep; since yoga means union of the body-mind, therefore 'union of the body and mind in a deeply relaxed state'. The practise is quite simple. Lying down or sitting supported, so that you can totally relax, all you need to do is listen and feel.
It is a different technique to a meditation, and it is not a trance. You are very safe. You may fall asleep, and although this is not the aim, it can ...
Meditation
There are so many different types of meditation. Some contain movement; some contain stillness. Some have breathing practices; some have visualisations. Some have eyes open, some closed. The common element is focus.
Key benefits of regular meditation include: stress reduction, sleep improvement, sense of wellbeing, less emotional ups and downs, increased resilience, better concentration, clearer thought patterns.
As the mind stills, with regular meditation practice, it is able to recognise when it is wandering, catastrophising and creating drama. At this point we can ...

Foot Massage Workshop
If you're looking for some ideas to pamper your partner, book this foot massage workshop with them and learn great techniques to really revive sore, tired and aching feet. They can learn alongside you, thereby making it more likely your pamper session will be reciprocated.
Imagine your partner could just massage your feet properly at the end of a long day. If you get a 'half-hearted' foot rub (if it can be even called that!) and wish they knew how to ease your aching feet & legs, and help you unwind?
Do you often massage your partner's feet but get stuck on the same ...
Private Yoga Classes
During private yoga classes you can be sure of individual attention. Sometimes it can be difficult to be part of a class setting. Perhaps you feel self-conscious, or have never done yoga before and don't know what to expect.
1-1 tuition could be what you need to have a confidence in yourself, to realise that you are not the same as anyone else, and that you are on your own journey.
As you continue your practise, you will increase awareness of your own body and the sensations created within, from the subtle movements during physical practice and the breath as an explora...
EFT (emotional freedom techniques)
