So we made it to December!

For the rest of the month we will explore some beautifully well-rounded practices full of creative Yoga, nourishing breath work, and as always intention and relaxation to calm the busyness that can happen this time of year.

Holistic Massage and Reflexology clinic at New Oscott Village

Starting every Tuesday daytimes from October at New Oscott Village I will be running a holistic massage and reflexology clinic.

These treatments are a great way to de-stress and give something back to yourself. Massage can ease tension in the body and mind with a gentle focus on relaxing the muscles and gently stimulating accupressure points. Eastern head massage works with the marma points of Ayurveda on the head, face, neck and shoulders to induce a wonderful feeling of relaxation. Holistic reflexology concentrates on zones of the feet which relate to different areas of the body and can be a great aid to circulation too.
