Catherine Hamilton
Initially trained in Therapeutic Massage in 2002 Catherine Hamilton nurtured a small private practice in London for 3 years. She then supplemented her skills with Sports Massage and Advance Techniques (including Deep Tissue, Muscle Energy Technique and Myofascial Technique and Oscillation work) in 2005.
In that same year Catherine combined her professional experience with her keen personal interest in yoga as the in-house massage therapist at “Ibiza Yoga” for the summer. In the winter of 2005 she secured a position of Sports Massage Therapist for Crystal Finest Holidays in Val d’Isere France.
Catherine returns to Ibiza Yoga for the summer of 2006.
Each session is tailored to your unique needs and can be devised to compliment other bodywork you might be doing here. The diversity of her practice and proven people skills make her an intuitive therapist.
Client Testimonials
“Catherine has, what one hopes every masseur has but is actually very rare, strong and healing hands that can find every bit of your body that really needs some TLC. She was very thorough and didn't skimp on time; I really felt I had got my money's worth, and felt relaxed flexible and looked after.”
Marijne Tuft-van der vulgt
"I was lucky enough to experience a Catherine Hamilton full body massage, while on holiday at Yoga Ibiza. Catherine really is excellent; I seemed to literally melt under her hands! I can be quite fussy when it comes to these things, but I knew I was in expert hands; she really has the gift to sooth and smooth out tired and stressed muscles. I'd highly recommend her.”

THE POWER OF REFLEXOLOGY
Feet are a powerful symbol of spirituality & healing in Yogic traditions & symbolize 'the grounding of the transcendent'. In Reflexology points on your feet corresponding to every vital organ & part of the body are gently stimulated & massaged sending waves of relaxation throughout your system. Reflexology has parallels with Acupuncture sharing the principal that there are 10 energy zones running throughout the entire length of the body from head to toe. Each zone is considered a channel for the intangible life energy or chi. Therefore by applying pressure to specific areas on the hands or feet, blockages begin to dissolve along the different zones which in turn has a profound effect on the flow of energy in your body. This eliminates toxins & congestion from the body, reduces pain & inflammation, boosts circulation & healthy cell renewal & relieves a whole range of stress-related conditions. It helps to restore movement & fluidity & promotes a general sense of wellbeing & calm.
The power of Reflexology was understood & respected in Ancient Civilizations such as the Egyptians, Chinese & North American Indians. This ancient knowledge has developed & evolved alongside medical & neurological studies to become an extremely effective modern day complementary therapy. It is a deeply relaxing, gentle healing therapy that recharges, strengthens & balances the energy flow of health & vitality within the body. It complements yoga especially well, restoring balance & harmony from within.
SACRED INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE
Indian Head Massage has been practised in India for over 5000 years & is an important ritual to this day. The skill is handed down from generation to generation & members of the family often give & receive head massages. It is based upon the ancient Ayurvedic healing system which combines natural remedies & strives to restore balance & inner harmony to the mind, body & spirit to improve the health of an individual.
Western Indian Head Massage is a 'dry' treatment & does not include the use of oils. It is a combination of the Champissage Indian Head Massage sequence plus other advanced massage movements specifically designed to be effective on the head, scalp, face, neck & shoulders. It helps to improve blood circulation & the condition of skin & hair, aids lymphatic drainage & the elimination of toxins, stimulates sensory nerves & warms & eases muscular tension. Indian Head Massage can help to relax, soothe or invigorate the receiver. It is highly recommended.

‘KARIN HERZOG’ OXYGEN FACIALS
‘Karin Herzog’ facial fans include Kylie Minogue, Kim Basinger, Jennifer Aniston, Demi Moore, Sharon Stone and Linda Evangelista. Made in Switzerland these creams do not work like the conventional creams of today, which work only on the surface, they work from beneath outwards. When the cream contacts the skin it turns into a gas and therefore builds up a pressure, because of this pressure the cream is taken down to the dermis layer of the skin. ‘Karin Herzog’ has the global patent on this product and Paul Herzog still remains the only scientist to successfully stabilise active oxygen in a cream. Combined with the action of these creams and the contents i.e. Oxygen, Water and Vitamin A, they can treat any problem and the overall condition of the skin is incredible. Skin will feel silkier, firmer and look smoother. Facials on offer are as follows:
GLYCO-ROSE OXYGEN FACIAL 50€
A fabulous 30 minute facial with staggering results. Using a safe and gentle Glycolic Acid, Rose Essential Oil and Herzog’s patented and proven oxygen therapy. This treatment revives tired looking skin, helps soften fine lines, hydrates and plumps. Skin is lifted and toned, elasticity is improved and the complexion looks brighter. Stimulates cell renewal while simultaneously decongesting. Essential for dry, mature skin, pigmentation problems, acne scarring or general lack lustre skin. Brilliant as an advanced beauty aid before a special occasion.
PORE-DRAW OXYGEN FACIAL (lasts 75 mins) 65€
Voted as the best facial in the world by ‘The Times’. The pore draw is formulated to add oxygen to the skin while at the same time deep cleansing the pores manually without steam. A combination of best selling products is applied to deliver oxygen, vitamins, glucose and water to hydrate dry areas and deep clean spots, blackheads, whiteheads and milia, the small hard white calcium deposits that sometimes appear under the surface of the skin. The oxygen kills bacteria while giving your skin a great glow and it’s recommended for city dwellers and anyone with problem skin.
SMOOTHIE LUXURY OXYGEN FACIAL (75 mins) 70€
This treatment gives an instant radiance and carries on feeding the skin long after you have had the treatment making it a truly unique experience. A deep infusion of Oxygen, Retinol and Vitamin E to visibly smooth out fine lines and wrinkles and breathe life back into a tired dull complexion. Essential for smoker’s, whose skin is starved of vital nutrients, helps the skin cope with stress which is a huge enemy of the skin, and a must to help the skin prepare for and recover from any overindulgence. Skin looks fresher more vibrant, instantly, and gives the appearance of having just completed a ski run, maintaining a healthy, glowing, firmer complexion.

HOPI EAR CANDLES (45 mins) - 40€
Give your ears, sinuses and forehead a service with ‘Hopi ear candles’. A Hopi Ear Candle is 22cm long, hollow and lit at one end with the other end placed into the ear. It then causes a vacuum effect in the ear, drawing any impurities in the ear to the surface, while the motion of the flame causes a vibration of the column of air within the ear candle. The vibration is then transferred to the eardrum. This eardrum massage leads to a decompression and has a regulating effect on pressure in the ears, sinuses and forehead. Included in the treatment is a shiatsu massage to the face and scalp. The ear candles that are used contain only pure beeswax, honey extract and traditional herbs such as Sage, St John’s Wort, Camomile and Pure Essential Oils.

INTENSE MOISTURE WRAP – 50€
Nourish and rejuvenate your skin with luxurious and moisturizing body butters and oils. After these treatments you will see and feel that soft glowing radiance that only healthy skin can have.
REIKI 60€
The most relaxing treatment there is. The theory of Reiki is that all life forms on this planet rely on energies which surround us to revitalize, and has now been accepted that the human form continuously rejuvenates itself. Sometimes this rejuvenation is hampered by environmental conditions or by negative energies surrounding us. This energy life force is also responsive to thoughts and feelings and becomes disrupted when we accept, either consciously or unconsciously, negative thoughts or feelings. In a Reiki session energy is channelled to parts thought to be depleted. A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through the body and surrounds it. It treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit and creates many beneficial effects including relaxation and feelings of peace, security and well-being.
AROMATHERAPY MASSAGE FULL BODY (1 hr) 65€ BACK MASSAGE (30 mins) 40€
Aromatherapy is a slow, soothing, calming massage with the use of therapeutic oils extracted from natural plant matter and used to encourage good health, maintain the body’s equilibrium and well-being. The oils are truly holistic in that they can have an uplifting, powerful and positive effect on the mind, body and spirit. A few examples of conditions helped by aromatherapy are stress, tiredness, lack of energy, stimulating the immune system, inflammation of the muscles and many more.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE (lasts 1 hour) 60€
The lymph system is the internal system that rids the body of waste, dead cells, blood protein, viruses, harmful bacteria, excess fluid and toxins and absorbs fat from the intestines. When the lymph circulation is slow the cells become dry and the body tissues become poisoned by their own waste. This treatment encourages the lymph to flow more freely and helps to remove any congestion either along a lymphatic vessel or within a node. The Lymphatic Drainage Massage is beneficial to restoring health and well being to everyone. It will enhance detoxification and strengthen the immune system to help fight infection, increase the metabolic rate, help banish water retention and generally increase circulation and energy levels, it’s also good for acne and breakouts.
CHINESE MASSAGE (lasts 1 hour) 60€
Chinese Massage is an excellent treatment for stretching and loosening stiff joints and making the body more supple. It is a slow, rhythmic, soothing and relaxing therapy which releases tension on a physical and energetic level. It is a fantastic and releasing experience.
THERAPEUTIC SWEDISH MASSAGE
FULL BODY (1 hour) 60€ BACK MASSAGE (30 mins) 35€

UPPER BACK, SHOULDERS, FACE AND SCALP MASSAGE (lasts 30 mins) 35€
This is the ideal stressbusting treatment for anyone who is suffering from aching shoulders, a tight neck, tension headache, eye strain, insomnia, or poor concentration.
