For instance, having monthly facials will dramatically improve your skin texture, tone and elasticity and will keep your skin looking fresh and rejuvinated. You will look fabulous without make-up but it will also give you a fantastic "canvas" on which to apply your make-up too!

This special offer consists of every one of our 5 facials that we do at The Lakes - The Collagen, The Hibiscin, The Caviar, The Chocolate and The Aroma facial - 5 facials, all for the price of 4 at a total of £125 - the Aroma facial is on us, so why not take up this offer and give your face a taste of something different each week or month - its a great way to try them all out to see which facial you like the best!

More information on these facials and of their benefits can be found on the 'our treatments' page (click on the button at the top of this page to take you through to our treatments and price lists).

Reiki Treatment - Opening offer - £25 per hour
Reiki (which is pronounced as Ray-Kee) is an ancient form of hands on healing treatment which originates from Japan. Reiki is a subtle energy which is relaxing, balancing and gentle and its benefits may include:
Helping reduce stress and tension
Alleviates tiredness, fatigue and weariness leaving you feeling energised
Helps reduce pain and discomfort
Speeds up reocvery after a long illness or surgery assisting the body in healing itself naturally
Boosts the immune system
Promoting well being and feeling of balance
The treatment brings peace and harmony
It is non-intrusive. You remain fully clothed during the session.
Reiki is thought to be channelled through practitioners to where the Universal Healing Energy is needed. Reiki energy has its own intelligence so it will go where it is most needed, according to the individual's requirements. The experience during treatment will vary from person to person. However, feelings of deep relaxation and peace are normally felt by all.
What to expect from your treatment - The treatment will be explained to you and you will be made comfortable, fully clothed, on our treatment couch. We will then start the treatment and energy will be channelled towards each of your major chakra points for a few minutes, helping you relax completely. A wonderful relaxing, peaceful treatment for those who need some 'time out' of everyday stresses and strains.
