Shu's Signature Massage
Combination Therapy
At no extra cost we have combined the Relaxation Massage with the Hot Stone and Essential Oil to create our Most Popular massage. Traditionally hot stones have been used to provide 'healing energy' to the mind when placed on the key meridian points of the body. The addition of heat from the hot stones provides the 'extra layer 'of relaxation that massage alone can't. Long smooth gliding strokes combined with just enough pressure so that it is deeply relaxing to soothe you without being painful.

Hot Stone with Essential Oil
Healing Heat
Hot Stone Massage is an ancient technique which has been perfected over centuries into its current form. Smooth stones made from basalt volcanic rock are warmed in water in advance to the correct temperature . Basalt stones retain heat well which means long lasting warmth throughout your massage. The heat promotes relaxation and as you relax our therapist works through your muscles to relieve tightness and your aches and pains as they glide the stones over your body.

Back Walking Massage
Foot Pressure Massage
Ashiatsu is a barefoot massage technique that applies deep pressures on the body. At Shu's our therapists use very stable massage tables for clients, and they also have two bars fixed to the ceiling that they can grab to stabilise themselves while they use their feet to deliver the strokes. Painless pressure is applied directly to the clients body who will feel a deep, broad flowing centrifugal pressure that engages the fascia throughout the entire body, loosening adhered tissue and increasing drainage. Just 10-15 minutes of Ashiatsu usually achieves the benefits of 60 minutes of other types of massage. We can integrate into any of our other massage types by request.
Post Massage Hydration
Inner Cleanse
You may be wondering why at Shu's Massage we offer you free bottles of water post massage. Massages are dehydrating and our bodies are 60% water. The kneading and muscle working that our massage therapist does during your appointment releases fluids from your muscle tissues and into your circulatory system, where it heads to your kidneys. That means that you have to replenish the water you lost during your massage. Metabolic waste is produced by muscles in the course of everyday function. When your muscles are tight or knotted it constricts circulation in those areas, inhibiting your body's ability to flush out this waste. Massage relaxes your tension, releasing the circulatory pathways and allows metabolic waste to dump into the system. Drinking provides your kidneys with the water they need to effectively eliminate the newly released waste.
