What is Massage

“Nature is doing her best each moment to make us well. She exists for no other end. Do not resist.” H. D. Thoreau

There are many different types of massage. The main massage at the Manu Centre is aromatherapy massage, where essential oils are carefully selected to work with your own nature and condition to bring about healing and well-being. These high quality oils are blended with a carrier oil and are used to give you a gloriously relaxing treatment.

Other massages on offer are:

• Indian head massage, a very relaxing and de-stressing massage
• Chi Nei Tsang massage, works on a deep emotional and physical level. It is particularly good for emotional, digestive and elimination conditions, helping to clear deep seated patterns of illness within the body and mind. It is particularly powerful for people who have very “thinking” lives and are unconnected with their bodies

There are options for different treatments according to your needs and preference:

1. A 20minute massage for the busy, wary or curious
   Choose from:
   • foot massage
   • hand massage
   • back and neck massage
   • head neck and shoulders massage
     
2. One hour regular full body treatment.
3. One-and-a-half-hour full body, head and face massage for the total treat and indulgence.

Self help advice can also be given so that you can continue the treatment at home.
