Massage
Our relaxation massage is designed to help reduce stress and promote a sense of well-being. It typically involves techniques that focus on gently easing tension in the muscles and calming the mind. Here are some key elements often involved in a relaxation massage:
- Gentle Touch: The pressure applied is usually light to moderate, aimed at soothing rather than deeply manipulating the muscles.
- Long Strokes: Techniques such as effleurage (long, sweeping strokes) are often used to promote relaxation and improve circulation.
- Kneading: Light kneading or circular movements can help to release muscle tension and improve overall relaxation.
- Aromatherapy: Essential oil is used used to enhance the calming effects of the massage.
- Ambient Environment: The setting is typically serene, with dim lighting, soft music, and a comfortable temperature to help create a peaceful atmosphere.
- Breathing Techniques: Therapists might encourage deep breathing exercises to enhance relaxation and aid in stress reduction.
- Focus on Areas of Tension: While the overall goal is relaxation, specific areas where you carry tension, like the shoulders or neck, might receive extra attention.
The benefits of the massage:
- Massage improves overall mood and reduces fatigue feeling.
- Massage relaxes muscles and removes pain.
- Removes dead skin cells.
- Skin becomes more firm, elastic and radiant.
- Massage improves blood and lymph circulation.
- Massage increases the elasticity of tendons and joints.
It’s always a good idea to communicate your preferences and any specific areas of concern to our therapist beforehand.
