This time of year in Mallorca.....

Mallorca in April 

I've been a bit late with the blog this last two weeks. We have been so busy with treatments that I haven't found the time. But I'm back.


Thought I'd tell you what happens this time of year in Mallorca. Well the weather is changeable as it always seems to be. We have all types of weather from very hot to a bit grey and cooler. Personally I love this time of year. The storms we have are amazing. Plus its a very relaxing time to really enjoy Mallorca. All the fantastic Restaurants in Deia have opened back up. We will be making our regular visits to Sebastian for lobster ravioli. Also no music is needed whilst doing treatments as the sound of the rain, light sea breeze, wind and birds singing  is all you need. It's the time of year to sit back relax, read and have a massage by the fire in the comfort of your own home.

Its also what I like to call cyclists season our roads once again are full with professional and some non professional cyclists. I love driving behind these obviously passionate cyclists. To do the tramuntana mountains you would have to be dedicated. Teams of cyclists seem to come from all around the world. We have all different nationalites Italians, English, German, Irish all different people coming to cycle here.

Why Cyclists love Mallorca. 

Mallorca has become a winter training ground for many professional cycling teams. The Vuelta a Mallorca is held in early February. The event itself is used as an early season preparatory event by many of the top teams in readiness for the bigger races later in the season. With low traffic and respectful local drivers, good all year round weather, high mountain passes. This is the perfect place if you love to cycle.

We have a dedicated treatment for cyclists here at spa@home called cyclists stretch. This is a full hour to work on where you need it most. Neck, back, legs and feet can all be treated. Using a combination of techniques including stretching, cupping and sports massage. We can make sure you get back onto the bike the next day to take in some more of our fantastic routes.

This very gentle technique works on the very subtle movements of the cranial and spinal bones, and the tissues surrounding them. Ideal for treating general ailments and specific problems including: migraine, stress, depression, back and neck injuries and more. 

Cupping

An alternative way to de-stress, detox and kick start your system. Cupping is a technique practiced for 1000´s of years in chinese medicine. By applying suction ( or an area of low pressure ) to specific meridian/accupressure points,  it mobilizes stagnent blood flow to help aid and promote healing. Ideal for many aches, pains and specific ailments. Also a very effective way of treating cellulite and breaking down fatty deposits.

Cupping Therapy

Introducing this year new to spa@home and Mountain Wellness is Cupping therapy..

Here at Spa@ home we are in love with cupping. It is an alternative way to destress, detox and kickstart your system.

The History of Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy has been around for years . It developed over time from the original use of hollowed out animal horns (the horn method) . Into bamboo cups and eventually replaced by glass and silicone. The True origin of cupping still remains uncertain to this day. Some of the earliest pictorial records date back to the  Egyptians around 1500BC . Translations of the oldest medical textbook, detail the use of cupping for treating fever, pain and vertigo. Cupping is a powerful healing treatment.

What the treatment does.

By applying suction (or an area of low pressure) to specific meridians/acupressure points, it mobilizes stagnant bloodflow to help aid and promote healing.
Latest studies show that cupping treatment is proven to help back pain, knee pain and neck pain too.


Lots of well know celebrities have been seen with cupping marks, cupping has become a new go to treatment. Even though it been around for a long time. We see people more and more with cupping marks. Just the other day I was in the car following a cyclist around the mountain and you could see he had some work done on his shoulders. As we are training for the TUI marrathon in October our cups are going to come in handy!


People seem to be worried and its been mentioned in the press alot about the marks left after a cupping treatment. 1st thing you have to know is that, they are not bruises. The marks result from dredging stagnation from within bodily tissue, up closer to the surface of the skin. Helping to restore flow of energy and blood to the areas treated . Marks can last 3 days to 1 week. Also when you touch the marked area you have no pain so it doesnt feel like a bruise at all. Plus you can see what exactly your areas of concern are. You will be amazed at what the cupping treatment can pick up.

We have noticed not only amazing results with pain management but also as a fantastic anti cellulite treatment.

Im sure like many people you have tried the lastest in technology and anticelluite creams. I have tried most on the market and have done most more advanced techniques using machines. Whilst the results with those techniques are great. Cupping whilst not pain free (the more cellulite you have the more it can be slightly unconfortable although this lessens as time goes by and the more treatments you have) has amazing results in really breaking down and helping too remove the toxins from stubbon fat deposit areas. Whilst exercersice and eating correctly is of course necessary, we have started to do courses here to help kick start your cellulite free bodies. To help you look the best on the beach this summer.
