Holistic Therapeutic Massage
Massage has its roots in ancient history. Massage is a general term for working on the body, using a variety of techniques and strokes that involve touching, gentle kneading, and stroking the body for therapeutic purposes. A neutral carrier oil, such as grape seed or almond oil, is applied topically, and I also make use of aromatherapy oils by inhalation (through vaporisers, on a tissue or bedding).
Massage can be used alongside other treatments and you will benefit on a physical or psychological/emotional level. Massage has been known to...
-
promote relaxation
-
relieve stress and tension
-
provide emotional support
-
alleviate anxiety and and low mood/depression
-
alleviate pain and symptoms
-
improve sleep pattern
-
support general well being
I can combine massage with Angelic Reiki and/or Guided Meditation to take a very holistic and client-centred approach. I also deliver specific stroke techniques for chakra balancing, which are not taught to most therapeutic massage students. These were gifted to me by my mentor and trainer, Anna-Louise Haigh.
