The Therapy
The treatment is carried out on a professional massage table, with oil. It consists mostly of Swedish and Deep Tissue massage techniques. However, some pressure points from Thai and Sports Massage are applied on the back and gluteal muscles.
The intensity of the pressure varies according to the area of the body and can be adjusted to each client's individual requirements.
I use excellent-quality sweet almond oil, which is non-greasy and easily absorbed by the skin, mixed with some essential oils such as mandarin, lavender, ginger, etc. Should you be allergic to any of these plants, I will use the base oil only.
Shower facilities are available.
Useful tips
- Do not eat a heavy meal before the massage.
- Breathe deeply throughout the treatment: it will increase the benefits.
- Try to keep your eyes closed during the massage - this will enhance your other sensory perceptions.
It is important to drink plenty of water during the 24 hours following the treatment in order to flush metabolic waste from the tissues.
