How has your January been so far?  Always a bit of a funny month - weather is changeable - foggy one day, mild the next followed swiftly by bitter cold.  We start resolutions and vow to become fitter, perhaps cut out alcohol.  Let's not give ourselves too much of a hard time - 2017 is yet young!

So please do get in touch if you would like to make an appointment and would like to discuss options.  Remember, I also offer TheraParties, in the comfort of your own home, for a minimum of four people.

As well as regular massage sessions, Epsom salt baths can play an important role in helping to keep you feeling limber.

One of the simplest ways to ease stress and stress-related problems is to soak in a hot bath with some Epsom salt. Some of the benefits include:

* Eases stress and relaxes the body...
Stress drains the body of magnesium and increases levels of adrenaline. When dissolved in warm water, Epsom salt is absorbed through the skin and replenishes the level of magnesium in the body. The magnesium helps to produce serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain that creates a feeling of calm and relaxation.

* Relieves pain and muscle cramps
An Epsom salt bath is known to ease pain and relieve inflammation, making it beneficial in the treatment of sore muscles, bronchial asthma, and migraine headaches.

* Helps muscles and nerves function properly
Studies show that Epsom salt can help regulate electrolytes in your body, ensuring proper functioning of the muscles, nerves, and enzymes.

* Eliminates toxins from the body
The sulfates in Epsom salt help flush toxins and heavy metals from the cells, easing muscle pain and helping the body to eliminate harmful substances.

So there you have it! This is why I love my Epsom salt!
