Hot stone massage is Mr A’s new favourite treatment so my beautiful basalt stones are getting plenty of use at the moment! As the weather turns colder this treatment is more appealing than ever but it doesn’t just feel good. Hot stone massage can relieve muscle pain, tension and spasms. The heat of each stone relaxes and soothes deep into the muscle, making it a gentle yet powerful therapy. Contrary to popular belief, I do not arrange the stones in a pretty pattern on your back but keep them moving, using them to melt away tension and break up adhesions. A hot stone massage can increase flexibility and improve range of motion as well as bringing about deep relaxation and reducing stress/emotional tension. As we come into Autumn/Winter, it’s particularly welcome that massage can boost our immunity as well as promoting restful and restorative sleep. All this, in my calm and cosy treatment room in Harlaxton with easy, free parking and no waiting room of other clients. If you haven’t been to see me for a while or if you’ve never had a hot stone massage or any of my other treatments, please get in touch. I’d love to see you 🙏🏼🤗

✨Introducing Facial Cupping ✨
Using cupping on the body to treat disease, remove stagnation and improve the flow of energy in the body has been documented as far back as 3000 years in Chinese, Middle Eastern, Egyptian and Greek practices. More recently facial cupping has gained popularity as an holistic skincare technique.
This gentle, yet powerful, therapy is non invasive and designed to promote circulation, stimulating blood flow and creating a radiant glow. Combined with knowledge and understanding of the lymphatic pathways it can clear stagnation and promote lymph flow, reducing puffiness, detoxifying and skin and reducing inflammation. The light suction of the cups can trigger fibroblasts within the cells, promoting collagen and elastin production which are key in keeping our skin youthful, plump, firm and either slowing the development of, or reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time. As well as this, this method can reduce tension deep in the facial muscles which can cause pain, discomfort, sinus pressure, deep stress lines and even conditions like TMJ.
🙋🏼‍♀️ I’ve been using cups on my own face, neck and décolletage for a few years and over the summer I completed some training to enable me to use this technique with my clients. Personally, I love the lifting, plumping and invigorating effect the cups have on my skin, as well as sculpting a sharper jawline and maximising lip volume. Over time, increasing the circulation, bringing oxygen and other nutrients to the surface of the skin is hugely beneficial to skin health - keeping it rejuvenated, youthful, healthy and glowing.
If you’re already a regular client of mine, you may already be enjoying some cupping as part of your holistic facials. Many of you have noticed an immediate plumping effect and have enjoyed learning how to use them at home in order to maximise the benefits over time. If you’d like to know more about facial cupping and how it could benefit you, drop me a message to secure an appointment now 🤗🙏🏼
Please note there are some skin types not well suited to this technique and it’s not recommended for those on blood thinning medication, those with very fine/thin/fragile skin or those with broken capillaries and severe rosacea.

I love to hear from my clients after their treatments 🙏🏼 Regular facials and facial massage can clear away dead and dull skin cells, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, promote an even skin tone and deeply hydrate bringing about a healthy glow. In this case it gives my client the confidence to go without make up which she finds really empowering. 🥰

GUA SHA (pronounced gwah shah) is an ancient Chinese massage technique, used widely for centuries. It’s been an integral part of my Natural Lift facials for a little less time, but I’ve still had plenty of experience! Recently I went on a training course to take my practice a little further and gain some further skills and techniques which has reignited my passion for this calming, meditative and powerful treatment.
Gentle scraping of smooth jade, rose quartz or even stainless steel heart shaped tools over the skin can, when done correctly, help to move lymphatic fluid which can cause puffiness, boost circulation and relax tight facial muscles. Regular use can yield both instant and cumulative positive results such as sculpting and contouring of the jawline and cheekbones, lifting eyebrows, reducing dark circles and puffiness, softening fine lines and wrinkles and bringing about a radiant healthy glow.
If you book a course of treatments I’m also very happy to spend some time showing you how to practice Gua Sha on yourself so that you can maintain the benefits between your treatments.

Whether coming for the anti aging effects or the relaxation benefits, clients often ask me how they can really make the most of their sessions, get visible or tangible results.
Consistency is almost always my answer. Regularly engaging your parasympathetic nervous system will train your body to find relaxation and calm in daily life, when you really need it. Regularly massaging your skin, scalp and body will increase cell turnover, keep your tissues young and elastic, promote collagen production and rejuvenate your appearance as well as your energy. You’ve heard people saying that you can’t get fit by going to the gym once, well, guess what? Looking after your body, your skin, your very being, isn’t a one off or a treat, it needs to be ongoing and regular. Its a job for every month, every week, everyDAY. Some of things we do to look after ourselves can be hard to really enjoy at first - starting a new gym routine or a healthy diet. Luckily my treatments really aren’t hard to enjoy and if you are consistent you’ll see and feel real benefits. I would say that though, wouldn’t I?! ☺️
