Massage
works on many levels, relaxing the mind, boosting our immune
system, improving circulation, and simply giving us time out,
a valuable commodity in this modern world. Once people start
having regular massages, they don’t know how they ever
did without them. Sometimes you don’t realise how tense
you are until the therapist starts working on you.
Having
practised massage since 1981, it is difficult to categorise
the massage that I do. I will use elements of
Aromatherapy, Remedial, Swedish,
Shiatsu, Pulsing to
tailor make the session that is just right for you. This may
be light and relaxing, deep and structural, according to what
you need that day. It may be lying on a couch, covered with
a towel, using essential oils to enhance the effect of the
massage, or it may be seated, through the clothes, with no
oils used.
Underlying
all my massage now is the wonderful Gerry Pyves' NO
HANDS® massage. This massage is not just about
not using the hands. It is about giving a deep, powerful,
and effective massage that is not painful. Your reason
for coming for a massage may be:
STRUCTURAL.......TO BE NURTURED.....TO CONNECT WITH YOUR BODY.....TO
BE ENERGISED..... TO BE REPLENISHED...... TO TRANSFORM, BECOME
THE PERSON YOU WERE MEANT TO BE
HOW
OFTEN?
Is a question I am often asked, and
the answer is: that depends! If we are dealing with a specific
problem, once a week for 2-4 appointments may be appropriate,
gradually spacing them out. As a health maintenance tool,
every 3-4 weeks is ideal, but any massage is better than no
massage! The great thing about massage is:
IT
FEELS GOOD AND DOES YOU GOOD!
