Ruby’s Offerings
Massage Therapy
The practice of Massage Therapy is the assessment of soft tissue and joints of the body and the treatment and prevention of physical dysfunction and pain of the soft tissues and joints by manipulation to develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function, or relieve pain.
Thai Massage
Thai Massage is an ancient, healing therapy with a 2000 year lineage. Performed on a large floor mat while the client wears comfy, stretchy clothes. No oils or lotions are used. Our skilled practitioners mindfully guide you through an ancient series of postures and fascial stretching, while pressing along muscles and meridians in a soothing, rhythmic rocking motion.
Reiki Healing
Reiki is a spiritual healing art with its roots in Japanese origin. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word (Rei) which means “Universal Life” and (Ki) which means “Energy”. Reiki is not affiliated with any particular religion or religious practice. It is not massage nor is it based on belief or suggestion. It is a subtle and effective form of energy work using spiritually guided life force energy.
Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage is a relaxing and rejuvenating treatment. It benefits body, mind and spirit. This treatment is applied to the shoulders, upper back, arms, hands, neck, scalp and face. It provides a de-stressing program from the entire body. Oil is applied to the scalp, hair and upper body. We work to bring balance to the top three chakras (energy centres) bringing forward a feeling of inner peace and well-being.

What Makes Ruby’s Approach to Thai Massage different?
Thai Massage is Ruby’s hands on approach to energy healing. “if your energy flow is blocked you are leaving yourself open to a plethora of health issues” Thai Massage removes blockages within our energy lines and allows Chi to flow through our bodies. Otherwise known as “the lazy man’s yoga”; The practitioner places you in yoga like positions and applies pressure and compression in a rhythmic motion (using palms, thumbs, elbows, knees and feet) to deepen the stretch. Unlike a taditional massage. Thai massage is generally done on a mat on the floor wearing comfortable clothing.
