Lymphatic Drainage
The lymphatic system is part of our immune system which helps us keep healthy and fight off any bacteria or viruses. Within this system there are what are known as lymph nodes, which are where any toxins that are collected in the lymph from around the body are transported to and released from the body.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage Treatment is a Holistic Health treatment that guides your body to naturally heal and recover.
Using slow deep breathing throughout the treatment to help move fluid around the lymph vessels and nodes. I use a very light massage pressure point technique around the front of your full body, opening up your lymph nodes by stimulating the blocked nodes. I then guide water retention & eleminate toxins by gentle pressure up towards the lymph node. This will allow the lymphatic system to get to work naturally and gives the nutrients that your body needs correctly, leaving you a state of deep relaxation.
You always start your lymphatic health journey with two treatments, your first session is part consultation & part treatment. This is to introduce manual Lymphatic drainage to your body without over stimulating the lymph nodes. Your second session is ideally within 10 days and you will have up to 50 minutes of massage.
If you do have a medical history please get in contact prior to booking your first and second session.
The Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage Massage:
Lift of Energy, Concentration & No More Brain Fog:
Regular Lymphatic Drainage gives your a clear state of mind, brings all your energy back. This will give your body a cleanse and release from toxins making you feel positive and lighter.
Minimizing Scar Formation:
Minimizing the formation of scars is achievable through proper lymphatic drainage, which ensures controlled and efficient healing. By mitigating inflammation and encouraging healthy tissue regeneration, lymphatic drainage massage plays a pivotal role in promoting more favorable outcomes in scar formation.
Promotes Skin Health:
The primary way that lymphatic drainage massage can help you maintain healthy skin is through increasing circulation in the facial area, which helps remove dead cells and impurities from the surface of your skin. This also makes it easier for water to be absorbed into the deeper layers of tissue beneath your epidermis (the outermost layer). The result? A smoother, more youthful appearance.
Enhancing Healing and Recovery:
Improving lymphatic circulation through lymphatic drainage massage boosts the transportation of oxygen, nutrients, and immune cells to the surgical area, fostering tissue repair and regeneration. Consequently, this promotes faster healing and facilitates a smoother recovery process.
Improve Your Sleep:
A lymphatic drainage massage is a form of physical therapy that helps improve sleep quality, duration, and overall energy levels. These benefits are achieved by increasing blood flow through your lymphatic system, including the lymph nodes in around your whole body.
Reducing Swelling and Edema:
After surgery, swelling and edema often occur as the body reacts to trauma. Lymphatic drainage massage can effectively alleviate these symptoms by jump starting lymphatic flow. This process facilitates the removal of excess fluid, resulting in a more rapid reduction of swelling.
Lower Stress Levels:
Stress is a significant health concern, and it’s no secret that stress can cause headaches, muscle tension, and insomnia. The good news is that relaxation techniques like lymphatic drainage massage can help you manage your stress levels by reducing the amount of cortisol in your body. Cortisol is a hormone released under stress; it causes blood sugar levels to drop and increases belly fat storage. Massage therapy has been shown to reduce cortisol levels by up to 40%!
Alleviating Discomfort and Pain:
Relief from post-operative discomfort and pain is a common priority for patients. Lymphatic drainage massage offers effective relief by alleviating tension, enhancing circulation, and releasing accumulated fluid and toxins that may exacerbate discomfort.
Body Contouring
Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage
The Brazilian method blends traditional lymphatic drainage massage techniques that contours your body by instantly target bloating, puffiness, and water retention, help reduce the appearance of cellulite and deliver a boost of energy to both the body and mind. This will give you more of a sculpt finish.
This is where the Brazilian lymphatic drainage process comes in it involves the whole body, beginning by stimulating the lymph nodes, starting from the pelvic area, the groin, under the knees and ankles, armpits, collar bone, and most importantly, the thoracic duct. It uses soft pressure to encourage a healthy lymph flow through a series of strokes and patterns along the lymphatic pathway. Vargas describes this as "the pumping technique," which helps the lymph nodes open and close, bringing toxins out of the body or up to the center to be cleaned so the lymph can distribute fresh nutrients.
Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a full body treatment that combines medium pressure and slow movements in certain parts of the body with rhythmic movements and more pressure in others, with the objective of modeling the body in areas of greater concentration of localised fat & water retention and improving the appearance of cellulite, and accentuating the natural curves of the body.
By allowing your body to flush correctly this leaves with results such as inch loss, water weight loss & natural sculpting.

Wood Therapy
Introducing the best toning and sculping treatment in Crawley. Not only will you love your results, you'll love the price too. Using hand crafted wooden instruments, NO NEEDLES, NONE INVASIVE & NON SURGICAL Can you imagine hitting your health goals and feeling better than every this year? This is your year to shine.
What is Wood Therapy?
In short, wood therapy uses a number of different wooden massage like tools to help break down fat and cellulite. The wooden instruments are used to apply direct pressure to “problem areas” and essentially naturally eliminate excess body fat. The wood therapy we know today is actually based on an ancient Oriental wood manipulation that dates back hundreds of years! There are a large number of benefits to getting wood therapy, which is why I made it a regular part of my workout and self care routine. Wood therapy is a firm massage that breaks down fat, scoops the fluid away giving you a sculpt look.
To see permanent results a course of between 10 to 15 sessions is recommended (although this may vary between clients)
Since wood therapy is a 100 percent natural, non-invasive holistic massage treatment, it is generally considered safe. However you must always have a consultation with Scarlet prior to beginning any new treatments just to be absolutely sure that this type of treatment is right for you!
How long does it take to see results?
This is another tricky one because it all depends on how often you’re willing to go. But typically, you’re able to see a small difference right after your second treatment. But most people really start to see the effects between their third and fifth treatments.
Courses are highly recommended, having a session one or twice a week and once you have hit your results, regular session every 4-6 weeks maintenance will be required.

Reiki
Healing means to become whole again.
Reiki is the sacred energy of life, accessed through a meditative practice while lightly laying the hands on the body. It’s the mysterious, intelligent, harmonising energy of the Universe which naturally flows through all living beings. A treatment restores our energy so it can flow freely, allowing us to let go and come home to ourselves. Ultimately Reiki is a path of discovery an exploration of the cosmic energy we are all made of.
In terms of Reiki, trauma can include everything from a physical injury such as a broken bone or surgical scar, to a deep psychic insult that results in feelings such as loss, grief, anguish or even terror. These represent clear assaults to the integrity of the mind and body, and are easily identifiable as traumatic. But trauma can also arise from seemingly innocuous events, things that result in energetic disturbances that cause distress to the spirit. In Reiki, these are also considered trauma and are treated as such.
Based on my experience working with people, I can say that an initial trauma can be caused in many ways. It can result from a physical injury, a health challenge, physical abuse, shock, sudden change, loss, or from mental/emotional abuse.
Reiki works on four levels: Mental, Emotional, Physical and Spiritual. It is an energy system that can release stuck, blocked and stagnant energy, encouraging and stimulating healthy, positive, pure energy to flow in its place, which in turn can activate and promote healing. It is particularly useful for healing trauma, because the energy that is held in that space after a trauma occurs is of low vibration and it is this low vibration that blocks the flow of energy. After the blockages take place in our energy pathways, energy becomes denser and heavier emotionally and psychologically.
Now the healthy energy has to find a different route to take so that human life is in the flow and is moving. Reiki helps to open and reset the healthy flow of energy.

Lymphatic Drainage & Brazillian Lymphatic
"Scarlet is informative and holds such a wonderful space for you. The massages are relaxing, soothing and rejuvenating. I have had 3 sessions with her now and will keep coming back for more - the changes I have noticed have been marked and worth every penny. Her demeanour, cleanliness and services are 5* all round."
Lymphatic Drainage Massage
"I love a massge but have been coming to Scarlet the last few months for deeper reasons. After navigating a traumatic time in my life, I have not only physically benefited from the treatments but it has impacted my wellbeing in such a positive way during difficult times. Scarlet will always start the treatment by asking how i'm feeling and then will tailor the treatment accordingly. I have experienced sage burning, back massage and indian head techniques alongside Lymphatic Drainage. I always leave feeling weightless and relaxed. Thank you for everything Scarlet."
