Piping
The bagpipes are know throughout the world and there is nothing more wonderful than the skirl of the pipes. If you have Scottish roots or simply love the sound of the pipes, then let Brian Yates entertain you during your stay at Evergreen.
Brian has been playing the Highland pipes for 37 years and teaching them for over twenty. A successful Grade I solo competitor and former member of the Manchester (Ct) Grade II pipe band, he taught pipes full time for twelve years in the top private schools in New England before emigrating to Scotland in 2005. He returns to the States each summer where his services as a teacher are still very much in demand at the North American Academy of piping. Many of his students have themselves become successful solo competitors.
Brian’s repertoire includes all forms of traditional light music, marches, strathspeys, reels, hornpipes, and jigs, as well as the more classical music of the pipes Ceol Mòr or Piobaireachd. If you prefer, he can also entertain you with the Scottish small pipes. If you have any favourite pipe tunes, just let him know and he will build these into the schedule.
Price:- £80 per hour. This is an all inclusive price which covers all tuning/preparation of the pipes, dressing in Highland dress, travel to and from Evergreen and playing. Additional time - £35 for each additional hour or substantial part thereof.
Reiki - Relax, De-stress, Unwind !
Stressed out from overwork and not enough rest? Treat yourself to a session of Reiki (pronounced ray-key) – a gentle and natural “hands on” complementary therapy developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in the early 1900s which re-energises body and mind, and usually leaves you feeling calm, peaceful and deeply relaxed. Benefits may also include relief from pain, and restful sleep.
Janet Sutherland, practices Reiki from her home in the hills above Loch Ness, just over a mile from Evergreen. A Master Practitioner, she has a supportive, warm and nurturing approach.
Enjoy:-
Deep relaxation
Reduced stress and anxiety
Boosted energy levels
A feeling of inner calm contentment and serenity
A speeding up of the natural healing process

Acupuncture
Sometimes making the transition from ‘busy mode’ to ‘holiday mode’ may be a bit difficult – in such a situation acupuncture can help you to leave all that stress behind, allowing you to relax and feel more rested so that you can truly enjoy your holidays. Johanna Schuster, MAOM, Lic.Ac., MATCM(UK), is a registered acupuncturist and herbalist and practices both in Foyers and in Inverness.
In Chinese medicine, a harmonious flow of energy (Qi) is seen as the foundation of good health while any disruption of the smooth circulation of Qi will eventually result in symptoms and illness. For example, feeling stressed, anxious, or unable to sleep are all considered to be the result of a disturbed flow of Qi.
Acupuncture, a form of therapy developed over 2000 years ago, seeks to rebalance the body’s Qi. This is achieved by inserting very fine needles into certain points on the body. Generally you won’t even feel the needle being inserted, sometimes there might be a slight pinch.
While acupuncture is used to treat a wide variety of conditions including chronic illness, it is also a form of therapy that most patients find deeply relaxing. It provides a wonderful opportunity to clear the mind and calm the soul.
1 Hour Appointment - £35.00
Guests at Hazelgrove can be collected by car if required.
