Sanctuary for Souls Massage Therapies

At Sanctuary for Souls we practice various different types of massage including Aromatherapy Massage, Therapeutic Massage and Hot Stone Therapy.

Massage therapy is recognised as one of the oldest methods of physical medicine known to man. Massage therapy is simply a system that utilises manipulation to aid relaxation of the mind, body and spirit. The basic goal of massage therapy is to help the body heal itself and to increase health and well-being.


Therapeutic Massage

Choose from a 30, 60 or 90 minute massage.

After many years in the industry, our practitioner has developed her own style of massage. Vicky uses several techniques that she has picked up from her trainings around the world and particularly Hawaii.

These techniques can equally be used for relaxation or a deep tissue massage.

Vicky uses many 'tools' within her massages, ranging from essential oils to hot stones. She combines the wonderful healing powers of these stones and crystals, with the nurturing touch of heat, to soothe aching muscles. Our practitioner generally uses hot stones as a tool to nurture the muscles after a deep massage, as they help to ease that bruised feeling one can get after a particularly deep treatment.

 Aromatherapy Massage
This specialised massage technique is designed to focus on areas where oils are more readily absorbed. It incorporates acupressure, lymphatic drainage and facial massage. Essential oils (the life force of the plant) can be used to aid the physical, emotional or spiritual healing process.

We do not use premade, blended mixes that are suitable for anyone. Each massage is customised for the individual. Our qualified Aromatherapist will prescribe an essential oil mix that is specific to you.

Our Aromatherapy Facial Treatment may include a cleanse followed by a massage of the scalp, face, neck, decolletage and a clay mask. Whilst the mask is setting choose from an arm and hand massage, or a foot and leg massage. The choice is yours....

    What's involved?
    Depending on which massage therapy you have choosen, the length of the consultation will vary. For essential oils to be prescribed safely in an Aromatherapy massage, a more detailed consultation will needed.

    Each of the massages include the glutei (buttocks), so underwear will need to be pulled down for access. Once the area has been massaged and no further treatment is needed, the underwear will be readjusted. Towels are used to ensure that the areas of the body not being massaged are covered or draped.
