Services
Remedial Massage
Targeted remedial massage addresses musculoskeletal issues through deep tissue techniques. Ideal for injury recovery, chronic pain relief, and posture correction, this service utilises trigger point therapy and myofascial release. Clients benefit from improved mobility and long-term pain management through tailored treatment plans.
Chinese Cupping Therapy
Ancient Chinese cupping therapy uses suction to enhance circulation and reduce muscle tension. Integrated with modern massage, it alleviates inflammation, promotes detoxification, and accelerates recovery. This service is particularly effective for athletes and individuals with chronic stiffness or respiratory conditions.
Pregnancy Massage
Specialised pregnancy massage supports expectant mothers through all trimesters. Gentle techniques relieve back pain, reduce swelling, and ease anxiety while ensuring comfort with side-lying positioning. Clients experience improved sleep quality and emotional well-being in a nurturing environment.
Conscious Connected Breathing
Guided breathwork sessions facilitate emotional release and nervous system regulation. This practice reduces stress, enhances self-awareness, and promotes spiritual growth through continuous rhythmic breathing. Clients achieve profound relaxation and mental clarity in a safe, supportive setting.
Hot Stone Therapy
Hot stone therapy combines heated basalt stones with massage techniques to melt tension and improve circulation. The stones' warmth penetrates deep into muscles, providing immediate relief for chronic pain and stress-related conditions. Clients enjoy enhanced relaxation and detoxification benefits.

I can't begin to describe what a wonderful experience having a massage from Karen Scott is.
Karen literally has magic hands! The massage was sensational! Starting with lovel clean fluffy towels, over a soft woolen underlay I was relaxed before the massage even started. Warm oil for the massage, then at the end of the massage, you get wiped down with a hot towel!
Karen is a very professional therapist who I would and do recommend to anyone who is in need of a fabulous massage. Thanks Karen!!
