Restorative Treatments

Treat yourself to something a little special…

All of our restorative therapies are undertaken by professional therapists who are highly qualified in their sphere, who practice locally and can be personally recommended.

With many such treatments, a course of more than one appointment is usually preferable, but very often in our busy lives we do not have time to try a treatment even once. Therefore, we feel it is beneficial to offer this whilst on holiday, when you have time to enjoy, relax & discover, that might lead you on to continuing a treatment at home, or revisiting when you next stay. We are happy to accept weekend bookings, if cottages are free, to combine a weekend away with a restorative path of healing.

Ashi No Shiatsu – Japanese Foot Massage
Tamami Benjamin is our Japanses Foot Massage therapist with over 16 years experience. For ten years she was principle practitioner and administrative director for the Yojoen Holistic Retreat Centre in Nagano, Japan. She now lives in the nearby village of Gunnislake with her husband & 3 boys.
Tamami’s treatment combines Reflexology with the Japanese art of Shiatsu. The Foot Massage uses both strong and gentle pressure to promote circulation of vital elements throughout the entire body. It helps eliminate toxins, promotes relaxation and a sense of well being and is effective both as a preventative measure and in treating a variety of medical conditions. Treatments take into account the whole person and can include advice on diet, exercise and relaxation techniques.

Homeopathy

Karen Leadbeater is an extremely experienced practitioner in homeopathy, and reknown in the local area for curing many ailments! We all use her locally, but her talents are widespread as she often treats patients who are far away by Skype, so could continue any consultation from afar if need be.

But for a one off holiday visit, Karen could advise Mums on simple home remedies for all the family, and her listening skills and excellent advice on natural remedies are a treatment not to be missed. For further information Karen’s website is : www.karenleadbeater.com, and the treatment would be at Tuell Farm
