Una Cashin – Massage Therapist, Reflexologist, Aromatherapist, Pregnancy Massage Therapist. Reflexology sparked my interest in massage and I have been studying different massage methods including Indian Head massage, Thai massage, Deep tissue/ remedial massage, Myofascial release techniques.
I also specialise in Trigger Point Therapy, fantastic for getting to the heart of muscle spasm and pain. With my treatments I can tailor the pressure to what you need and like. It might be a soft gentle treatment or a really deep massage.
But my love is really aromatherapy I am constantly astounded by the efficacy of the essential and base oils for numerous conditions. What can I say it keeps me healthy and looking young and fabulous.
I have trained with several schools of reflexology and use a South African method which combines knowledge of meridian theory and reflexology to get the best results. I have been working with reflexology since 2001.
Reaching a high standard of expertise, I was privelaged to have worked on both the board of the Irish Reflexologists’ Institute and Reflexology in Europe Network. With my adult education teaching certificate I plan to teach reflexology in the future.
