Massage with Jane Clark

A massage with Jane includes aromatherapy with steaming hot towels and pure Aromatherapy oils tailored to your needs. You will experience deep tissue and/or relaxation massage using organic bees wax massage balm (not oil), advice on stretching and feedback about the balance of your body.

Techniques include a combination of

• Sports, Trigger Point and Remedial massage,
• Bowen therapy,
• Thai, Swedish, Japanese and Hawaiian techniques,
• Reflexology and Aromatherapy.

Services:

• Relaxation
  • Full body or part body gentle massage techniques to promote relaxation and good circulation to your body and mind
• Sports Therapy and Deep Tissue
  • Warming the body with vigourous massage techniques and then application of deeper massage to release knots and tight muscle tissue. Often this treatment will involve longer time on smaller areas eg 1 hour on the neck and shoulders to work deeply through the muscle fibre
• Myofascial Trigger Point
  • As an adjunct to your deep tissue massage or on it's own, Trigger Point therapy works by applying controlled deep pressure to key zones in the body causing release and natural healing of injured muscle groups.
• Aromatherapy
  • Using steam, massage and hot compresses pure aromatherapy essences are worked progressively through your body.
• Pregnancy
  • Massage can be very useful in assisting clients to cope with body changes during pregnancy. As a precaution, I do not apply aromatherapy oils, not even the 'safe' ones, but use them in the room to create a relaxing atmosphere.
• Bowen/Myopractic Therapy
  • I do not use bowen therapy alone, but as an adjunct to other massage therapy techniques. Bowen therapy incorporates a set of postural diagnostic methods and application of specific cross fibre (flicking) moves to realign the body.
• Jaw Treatment
  • Tight jaw muscles from dental work, grinding teeth at night, stress, a job where you talk for many hours of the day... can lead to persistant headaches and many other symptoms. My 90 minute treatment combines kinergetics, trigger points and heat to provide relief for the jaw and promote deep relaxation.

Eleanor Roosevelt

I love her quotes and have lived for many years by "do at least one thing every day that scares you".

Here's some more of her gems!

A woman is like a tea bag- you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water.

Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art.

Do what you feel in your heart to be right - for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't.

Friendship with oneself is all-important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people.

I could not at any age be content to take my place in a corner by the fireside and simply look on.

I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.

If someone betrays you once, it’s their fault; if they betray you twice, it’s your fault.

It is not fair to ask of others what you are unwilling to do yourself.

Justice cannot be for one side alone, but must be for both.

Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

One thing life has taught me: if you are interested, you never have to look for new interests. They come to you. When you are genuinely interested in one thing, it will always lead to something else.

The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built.
