Holistic Massage is based on Swedish Massage - Holistic (from the Greek "Holos" meaning "whole") means that a comprehensive consultation takes account of your current health and lifestyle and guides the "Aftercare" element of the treatment.
The Aftercare element of Holistic Massage enables to you to begin taking responsibility for your own health and well-being and offers ideas for maintaining the benefits of massage in between treatments and typically includes simple stretches and common sense dietary recommendations.
Swedish Massage includes effleurage (smooth, rhythmic and relaxing), petrissage (stimulating and relaxing), vibration and friction (for deeper tissue work) and percussive strokes (stimulating and toning). I also use Hands Free (using aspects of forearm and elbow for deeper or wider pressure), Deep Tissue, Mobilising and Sidelying Massage to offer a unique treatment. I also work on acupressure points and meridians with selected essential oils to offer a further level of emotional and physical support
Holistic Massage can stimulate blood circulation and aid lymphatic drainage - encouraging elimination of toxins to ease aching muscles. It can improve overall health and functioning of organs and systems, whilst aiming to relax the mind and refresh the spirit.
A Holistic Massage treatment lasts for 1 - 11/4 hours including consultation time - Codes of Cnduct relating to confidentiality, professionalism and hygiene are strictly adhered to
Holistic Massage can enhance well-being at every level – where there is a build up of muscular tension, it is advisable to have a few treatments at weekly or fortnightly intervals before moving on to a maintenance level, coming at 3 - 4 week intervals (and benefitting from discounts for regular bookings!)
