This New Type Of Relaxing And Revitalising Massage Will Leave You Feeling Like A Different Person

Darragh Berry

You may remember some time ago we told you about a Godsend countryside Spa which was the ultimate relaxing treat for anyone who just needs to get away for a pampering.

Well, if you were undecided about taking the chance and heading to Cavan to Farnham Estate before this, then their brand new massage that they have just introduced into their spa programme will definitely swing your vote into the yes category.

The Inner Calm Massage at Farnham Estate Spa & Golf Resort was invented to celebrated the start of spring at the Estate where they encourage people to set aside some time for some moments of inner calm and peace.

A deeply relaxing and balancing aromatherapy treatment for mind and body, the Inner Calm Massage at Farnham Estate’s world-class Health Spa is a new ESPA treatment that uses a specially selected blend of oils specifically tailored to help you find your inner calm.

This hour-long therapy quietens the mind, releasing physical tension and nourishing the skin, and begins with a carefully chosen aromatherapy blend selected specifically for your needs, to luxuriously help you relax, detox or energise your whole system.

There was six different types of oils and I was asked what I wanted to achieve from the new massage. I have suffered a lot with my sinuses since after Christmas and was told that it would be best for me if I chose the detox option to flush my system of all the bad toxins.

A holistic, rebalancing treatment, Inner Calm at Farnham Estate uses guided inhalation and breathing techniques to help slow breath – releasing stress and anxiety, mind and body are brought back in balance.

With the body relaxing into a warm neck pillow, an eye pillow is placed over eyes before a full body massage begins for a state of complete relaxation. A calming scalp massage follows before Rose Quartz crystals are gently massaged over the third eye and forehead to rebalance the body, restore a sense of focus and create inner calm.

It was so relaxing that it was almost impossible not to fall asleep while it was going on. I told the masseuse that the pressure applied to my back could be harder than the rest of my body because my posture is forever slouched from sitting at a computer screen all day so it needed a good straighten out.

When I came out of the massage, my back and neck felt looser than it has since I was in my teenage years.

This massage will help you unwind a busy mind while all your anxieties slip away as you find a renewed sense of positivity. It is available in the Health Spa for €105 for an hour-long treatment, a 30 minute treatment is €65 while for €140, you can get a 80 minute treatment.

After your massage, you’re sent into a relaxation room where loungers are waiting for you along with ice cold water and you’re allowed stay here as long as you want and to be honest, you’ll never want to leave that room, or the estate for that matter.

But don’t worry, after a massage like this, you’re going to have to come back for another and another.
