Holistic massage is a massage treatment involving a sequence of movements that aid relaxation, relieve tension nodules (knots) from tense muscles, and promote well-being. Deep tissue, articulation, and strain-counter strain techniques can also be used to help treat a wide range of muscular-skeletal conditions such as sciatica, sporting injuries, tennis elbow, arthritis, and muscle spasms.
Massage oil is often used. There are five different movements involved in this massage - long gliding strokes, kneading of individual muscles, friction, hacking/tapping and vibration, which manipulates the soft tissues of the body, such as the skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. It has a healing, calming and preventative effect on the body.
As no two people are alike, the massage sequence will be adapted to your needs. Sweet almond or grape seed oil is used to help rehydrate, moisturise, and improve the texture and colour of the skin. I use a combination of techniques from swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release and sports massage to make sure you get what is needed to bring your body into balance and out of pain,
Massage can help to release chronic muscular tension and pain, relax and tone the muscles, improve circulation, improve lymph flow, increase joint flexibility, reduce mental and physical fatigue and stress, promote faster healing of injured muscular tissue, improve posture and reduce blood pressure. Massage is also known to promote better sleep, improve concentration, reduce anxiety and create an overall sense of well-being. Massage is the quickest, surest way to create a sense of relaxation and well-being. It is comforting, soothing, reassuring and makes us feel happy. A regular massage will maintain vitality, promote healing and keep muscular tension at bay.
