Mediation is essential to overall health - allowing us to come away from favouring the mind and being in an imbalance of constant thinking! We are now living our day to day lives in fight and flight response due to the increase in stress, doing and the environments/relationships we put ourselves in! Meditation allows us to switch over to the parasympathetic nervous system as a pose to the CNS so that mind and body can align and the body can heal. This is a powerful space to be able to CREATE a different future as we empty ourselves out to make room for something new.

Hydrotherm is a 3Dimensional massage FACE UP on a warm water bed to allow full stretch, release of muscles and ultimate relaxation. Accompanied with a guided visualisation to release any emotions and concerns on a mental & emotional level.

☑ Normal massage = client must lay face down or on their side.
✔Hydrotherm = on back, covered for the whole the massage
☑The client must try to have their face comfortable on its side or in a face hole ( These are not really comfortable). ✔Hydrotherm = no face hole and no cricked necks to onside ☑Laying face down compromises the chest and breathing ✔Hydrotherm does not so is better for relaxation & female clients
☑ client must turn over, disrupting the experience
✔This is not needed in a Hydrotherm massage.
☑In a normal massage the warmth of the client is dependant on the temperature of the room and the speed at which the therapist massages. Fast massage is less relaxing ✔The Hydrotherm mattress is full of warm water, keeping the client comfortably warm and allowing the therapist to slow down and make the massage more relaxing.
☑In normal massage the client must have their body treated in two “halves “ front and back. As muscles work in groups “agonist and antagonist “ eg. Quads and hamstrings some relaxation effect is then compromised ( think of trying to massage a tug of war team whilst their opponents are still pulling the rope that they are holding )
✔Hydrotherm allows 3Dimensional massage simultaneously working around the legs front and back, around the torso, the upper chest and shoulders, all of which dramatically increases the relaxation effect.
☑ normal massage the depth of pressure is dependant on the weight and strength of the therapist.
✔Hydrotherm massage on the main areas of the back of the body uses the clients bodyweight to provide the pressure and so the pressure is more even and more in line with what the client needs. Lighter clients naturally get less pressure. Males clients naturally get more pressure.
☑On a normal massage table clients can get achy and stiff after a time. Posture has to conform to the table or the therapist must use rolled towels and pillows to adjust it. ✔The water in the Hydrotherm mattress moulds to the clients body and changes shape as the clients posture changes, as muscles relax and as confidence from the client increases
