Declutterring and cleaning is so good for clearing energy! What are you holding onto that you can let go of?!

After any Holistic Therapy it’s important to remember the following in order to get the maximum benefits from your treatment and to avoid any side effects as far as possible

💧Drink lots of water- this is probably THE most important thing you can do! After any Holistic Therapy, especially massage lots of toxins have just been released and are now flowing through your body needing to be flushed out. Drinking water 🚰 is going to help flush them out quicker and replenish you at the same time. If you only listen to one thing your therapists tells you to do, let it be this one! If you don’t you may feel more tired, lethargic and groggy 🥴

🛋️ Rest and relax. You’ve spent the time and money having a holistic treatment to take care of yourself, make sure you follow it through by resting and taking it easy as much as possible!

❌ Avoid alcohol, ni****ne, unhealthy substances and strenuous exercise. After holistic therapies your body is working hard to eliminate toxins both physical and emotional. Please don’t add more work for your body.

🥗 Eat a light diet- avoid heavy meals immediately after to allow your body to concentrate on healing and eliminating toxins.

If you can follow this advice for 24 hours after your treatment you will definitely feel so much better!

It’s normal to sometimes experience some side effects (sometimes known as a ‘healing crisis’) after holistic treatments such as a headache, feeling tired, emotional and a bit groggy even. This is because you’ve got a lot of toxins being released and they need to be eliminated- hence the above tips. Having said this it’s also very normal and much more common to feel absolutely fantastic afterwards and experience a surge of energy, elevated mood, looser muscles etc. Where possible you should still take it easy and follow the above advise.
These symptoms can last for up to 72 hours in some cases, very rarely they do but they are natural and will pass. The BEST thing you can do for your body is drink lots of water, and rest.
The BEST thing you can do for your mind and soul is to allow it to release, anything that you’ve been holding onto energetically that isn’t serving you, just let it go ❤️

I’m mostly known now for my Aromatherapy Services in care homes across Bedford but I often get asked ‘Do you do other treatments?’

So here’s what I offer-

🩷 Aromatherapy Massage- gentle massage techniques focusing on relaxation and calm, together with the natural healing qualities of essential oils. Chosen accordingly for individual needs and aims of the treatment. A slow, but powerfully grounding treatment.

🩵 Reiki Treatments- Energy Healing to rebalance your chakras ( energy centres) for complete stress release and well being for mind, body and spirit. Clients lie down fully
Clothed and the practitioner rests their hands 🙌 at various places on the body to channel universal energy.

💚 Reiki Attunements- for anyone wanting to learn how to practice reiki healing for themselves, friends and loved ones ( level 1)
to become a practitioner themselves ( level 2,3)
To become a master and attune others ( level 3)

❤️ Hot Stone Massage- using basalt stones which have been heated, a deeply relaxing massage, which penetrates and relaxed the muscles much deeper due to the heat of the stones. A powerfully
Relaxing and warming massage which can be combined with aromatherapy oils.

💜 Crystal Healing- using the gently therapeutic qualities of crystals, mother natures jewels, to relax and heal the mind, body and spirit. Can be used along side other therapies such as reiki or massage or used alone.

🧡 I can visit care homes, retirement villages, care and support facilities, home visits and I’m also based both in Brickhill and in Wilstead at the Happy Body Project. Having worked in a variety of care settings including hospices I am very used to adapting treatments for individual needs, and combining different therapies to get the maximum benefits.

Written by a client following her Hot Stone Massage for muscle relaxation.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hot Stone Massage with Maggie – Highly Recommended

I recently booked a hot stone massage with Maggie after struggling with ongoing back pain. I’d already seen an osteopath who had ruled out any contra-indications for massage but I felt I needed something to properly relax my muscles. After talking through the different treatments Maggie offers, she recommended the hot stone massage – and I’m so glad she did.

When I arrived at The Happy Body Project, Maggie met me in reception and took me to the treatment room. She was extremely friendly and instantly put me at ease. The treatment room was calm and soothing, with soft music and low lighting that helped me relax straight away.

The session lasted 45 minutes. Maggie gave me time to get undressed and settle on the couch before starting. The massage itself was firm but never painful – just the perfect pressure. The hot stones helped her get right into the muscles, and I could genuinely feel the tension melting away. It really hit the spot.

After the treatment, Maggie explained the aftercare clearly, including drinking plenty of fluids. My back felt so much freer, and the relief was noticeable straight away. The whole experience was extremely relaxing and genuinely helpful.

I would highly recommend visiting Maggie. Not only is The Happy Body Project a lovely place to visit, but Maggie is professional, reassuring, and her prices are extremely competitive for the quality of treatment you receive.
