The Downshift

Service Description

The Downshift is a 45-minute treatment designed to create space between you and the constant pace of everyday life. Through a carefully developed sequence of slow, sustained touch, the treatment works with the body rather than asking anything from it, creating the conditions for the nervous system to respond in its own way. There is nothing for you to achieve and no particular state you're expected to reach. You may feel deeply relaxed, become more aware of your body, notice your thoughts begin to quieten, drift in and out of sleep, or experience something entirely different. The response can vary from person to person, and even from one treatment to the next. The Downshift isn't about forcing the body to relax. It's about giving it the time, input and space to find what it needs. Ideal for periods of mental overload, physical tension, overstimulation, stress, or simply when life has been running at full volume for a little too long. A quiet 45 minutes with no demands, no performance and nowhere else you need to be.
