The treatment is based on the Ayurvedic healing system and has been enjoyed in India for thousands of years.The head is covered with a thin layer of muscle which tightens when we are tense, resulting in stiff neck and shoulders, headaches, feelings of anxiety, eyestrain, hair loss etc. By relaxing these muscles an Indian Head Massage can improve blood flow, alleviating these symptoms and others and relaxing your whole body.

Deep Tissue is a deeper style of massage aimed at releasing tension, aligning muscle fibers, as well as lengthening and releasing tight muscles.
Deep tissue is an invigorating massage technique that works all areas of the body where there is tension.

Will it hurt?

How long will it be until I feel the results of a DT Massage? 

It’s important to be realistic about what a deep tissue massage can achieve for you. It can take time to release tension from muscles, especially if the problem is chronic or long term.

Jess has trained in Holistic Massage, Indian Head Massage, Reiki I and II and is a Reiki Master, Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Spiritual Healing and Deep Tissue work.

For Jess the initial pert of each treatment is essential to dvelop a relationship with the patient and understand what it is that they need. With every treatment Jess aims to take her patient to a place of deep relaxation and peace and at the same time loosen their muscles and so release tension. If needed Jess uses the healing power of colour to focus energy into stagnant areas and help the patient relax.

Jess was inspired by treatment that she had received over the years – the profound effect they had on her is what made her want to learn and share with others.

Jess is a member of Independent Professional Therapists International.
