What if a massage could be more than an hour spent working out knots and tension?
At Woodlands, we believe true wellness is about more than the body alone. It’s about taking time to quieten the mind, reconnect with yourself and give your whole body and soul the attention they deserve. That’s why the wellness experience at Woodlands is designed to be completely holistic.
Every treatment is tailored to you, your body and how you’re feeling on the day, creating something that feels much more personal than a traditional massage. And it all starts before you even step into the treatment room!
Meet the Woodlands Wellness team
Leading the Woodlands Wellness experience are Aileen Hornby & Leanne Mcindewar, whose backgrounds and approach to massage have always been rooted in the belief that massage should be more than simply a treatment.
For Aileen & Leanne, it’s a complete holistic experience; a chance to press pause, let go and give your mind, body and soul some much-needed attention. Aileen & Leanne are supported by an exceptional team of professional, highly trained therapists: Kachise, Eilidh & Alina. While each therapist brings their own expertise and experience, they all share the same philosophy: there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness.
No two treatments are ever the same!
Whether you choose a 45-minute or 75-minute treatment or if it’s an individual or couples massage, your experience begins with a conversation. Before your treatment starts, you’ll have a chance to chat with your therapist in our peaceful, zen-like waiting area about how you’re feeling and anything you’d particularly like to focus on. Whatever you bring with you on the day, your therapist will listen and create a treatment around your individual needs.
The beauty of a holistic treatment is that your therapist can draw on a range of techniques and adapt your experience accordingly. For example, if you have an underactive thyroid or frequent migraines, your therapist may incorporate elements of reflexology to focus on the corresponding area. If aches and pains are your main concern, our therapists are trained in deep tissue techniques, allowing them to focus more specifically on areas of tension or discomfort.
The ultimate sensory experience
Of course, a truly relaxing treatment is about more than the techniques themselves. At Woodlands Wellness, every element of the experience has been carefully considered to help you switch off.
From the soundtrack and lighting to the soothing aromatherapy oils, warm towels and heated massage table, everything is designed to create a calm, cocooning environment where you can completely relax.
And before your treatment begins, your therapist will guide you through a short meditation. It’s your opportunity to take a breath, quieten the mind and leave the outside world behind.
More than just a massage
This is what makes Woodlands Wellness different. It’s not about simply turning up, lying down and having the same massage you might have experienced anywhere else.
It’s about being listened to. It’s about understanding what your body needs and how you’re feeling in that moment. It’s about combining different therapeutic techniques with thoughtful sensory details to create a treatment that feels completely personal. And, perhaps most importantly, it’s about giving yourself permission to stop for a while.
Your time to switch off
Woodlands Wellness is open from 10am – 5pm (Monday – Thursday), 10am – 6.30pm (Friday, Saturday & Sunday) with later appointments available on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday evenings. You can book your session here.
Wellness for two
Wellness can be even better when it’s shared! Couples massages are available every day, making them a wonderful way to enjoy some uninterrupted time together during your Woodlands stay.
And if you’re looking for something truly special, couples treatments on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings can be elevated with a live sound bath!
Imagine settling into your massage, allowing the day to melt away, while the soothing vibrations of a live sound bath create another layer to the experience!
