Sometimes you know exactly what your body needs. Other times, you just know you need an hour to yourself. With a few different massage rituals at The Healing Meadow, I know it can be difficult to decide which one is right for you, especially if you haven’t had one of our treatments before. So I wanted to make choosing a little easier. There isn’t a right or wrong choice. It really comes down to how you’re feeling and what you’d like to get from your time with us.
The Meadow Massage
For when you’re not quite sure what you need.
The Meadow Massage is our most intuitive treatment. I work with what your body needs on the day, combining slower, flowing movements with deeper techniques where needed.
If you’re carrying tension in your shoulders, feeling generally tight, or simply want to completely switch off, this is a lovely place to start.
I’ll always take a little time before we begin to understand how you’re feeling, so the treatment can be tailored to you.
Choose this if you want:
• A completely personalised massage
• A balance of relaxation and deeper pressure
• Time to properly switch off
The Bamboo Massage
For when you like a little more pressure.
Bamboo massage is something a little different.
I use smooth bamboo tools alongside traditional massage techniques, allowing me to create deeper, flowing movements across the body. There’s something really lovely about the rhythm of the bamboo — it feels both grounding and invigorating.
It’s a great option if you enjoy a firmer massage or want to try something beyond a traditional treatment.
Choose this if you want:
• Deeper, more rhythmic movements
• Something a little different
• To work into areas of tension while still feeling relaxed
The Hot Stone Massage
For when you just want to melt.
If your idea of the perfect massage involves warmth, this one is for you.
Warm, smooth stones are incorporated into the massage, helping everything feel a little slower and softer. I find this treatment particularly lovely when life has felt busy and you’re craving that feeling of being completely cocooned for a while.
It’s deeply comforting and very grounding.
Choose this if you want:
• Warmth and deep relaxation
• A slower, more comforting treatment
• To feel grounded and completely relaxed
The Brazilian Lymphatic Body Massage
For when you’re craving a reset.
This is a little different from our other body massages.
Using light, rhythmic and purposeful movements inspired by Brazilian lymphatic massage techniques, the treatment is designed to leave you feeling refreshed, lighter and revitalised.
It’s a beautiful treatment if you’re feeling a little sluggish or puffy, or simply want to give your body a bit of extra care.
Choose this if you want:
• A lighter, rhythmic massage
• To feel refreshed and revitalised
• A sculpting and de-puffing experience
The Holistic Facial
For when your skin and your mind both need some love.
The Holistic Facial is about more than skincare. It’s a chance to completely slow down while your skin is gently cleansed, nourished and cared for.
Alongside the facial ritual, flowing massage across the face, neck, shoulders and scalp helps create that lovely feeling of being completely looked after. You’ll leave feeling rested, refreshed and naturally glowing.
Choose this if you want:
• A deeply relaxing facial experience
• Facial, neck, shoulder and scalp massage
• Nourished, refreshed and glowing skin
Brazilian Lymphatic Facial
For when you want to feel fresh, sculpted and glowing.
Our Brazilian Lymphatic Facial combines rhythmic lymphatic-inspired movements with sculpting techniques across the face, jawline, neck and décolleté.
It’s a beautiful choice when you want to give your skin a little extra attention, particularly before an event, or when you’re feeling puffy and want that fresh, lifted-looking feeling.
Choose this if you want:
• A sculpting and de-puffing treatment
• Focus on the face, jawline, neck and décolleté
• A fresh, lifted-looking glow
Still not sure?
Don’t overthink it.
If you’re completely stuck, The Meadow Massage is always a lovely place to start. And if you’re deciding between our facials, think about whether you’re looking for more of a deeply restorative experience or a sculpting, refreshed feeling.
I’m always happy to chat through your options before we begin and tailor your treatment around you.
And remember, your treatment doesn’t have to be about fixing anything. Sometimes it’s simply about giving yourself an hour where you don’t have to do anything at all.
