After a long day of exploring Glen Affric's forest tracks and hills, a relaxing massage is the best way to soothe away those aching tired limbs - an ideal way to end a perfect day. Massage away your stress, aches, pains and tensions by treating yourself to one of the following treatments, which can be tailored to suit your individual needs.

Aromatherapy - uses natural ingredients called essential oils, which are found in plants and flowers. They contain many beneficial properties, but are generally strongly antiseptic, anti-bactericidal, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory, and provide rejuvenating, relaxing and invigorating benefits to the mind, body and spirit. Generally, Aromatherapy uses massage to introduce essential oils onto the body - it is a relaxing, soothing, cleansing and detoxifying massage.

Remedial Massage - designed for more specific musculo-skeletal problems and helps to restore function to injured "soft tissues" (muscles, tendons and ligaments). This type of massage works deep into muscle tissue to stretch and loosen tight or knotted fibres and increase range of motion in the joints.

Indian Head Massage - the ultimate no-fuss massage; can be given with or without oils and is performed with the client seated. The treatment works on the muscular tissues of the scalp, neck, shoulder, face and top of the back where most of our stress and tension tends to be held.

Reflexology - deals with the principle that there are reflexes in the feet and hands that connect to each and every organ, gland and function in the body. By applying gentle pressure to precise areas of the feet or hands, the whole body can be treated. As health deteriorates, so energy becomes blocked. Reflexology allows the energy to flow efficiently again, giving the body a chance to heal itself.
