Full Body Balance Massage
Total relaxation, feel long-held tensions melt away from head to toe.
Also known as therapeutic or holistic massage, this style of therapy has immense physical benefits, supporting parasympathetic stimulation by soothing and easing both your mind and body. The benefits are many, aiding better sleep, improving mood, lowering blood pressure and encouraging a reduction in the release of cortisol (the stress hormone). By consulting with you, I will be able to ensure that this massage targets areas where you hold the most tension, and guided by your needs it will be tailored to give you the best possible outcome. Expect to leave with reduced pain and increased endorphins.
What is a Full Body Balance Massage?
Deep strokes of Swedish massage incorporating, kneading, petrissage and percussive movements work to loosen up tight muscles and are combined with the Eastern techniques of Trigger Point Therapy and Acupressure massage to break down pain receptors. The application of a Gua-Sha tool improves circulation and breaks down adhesions, and stretching techniques help elongate and rebalance, leaving you feeling both recharged and relaxed. A full body massage will bring balance throughout your body and also help you find deep relaxation. This combined approach has incredible results for my clients, alleviating pain, sciatica, and the stresses of daily life.
What’s Involved?
This treatment is perfect for those suffering from tension throughout the body. Although we may consciously hold much of our tension in our back and shoulders, a full body massage is beneficial in revealing hidden tensions that will be released during your treatment, enabling a better flow of energy throughout the body, This valuable time for deep physical release will help you to disconnect from busy thoughts. You will breathe more deeply, stand taller, and feel more focused. The benefits of increased circulation and endorphins will bring greater energy and deeper relaxation in rest and sleep.
Is It For Me?
