Holistic Massage

For many thousands of years, massage has been used instinctively for healing the body and mind; as such, it is probably the oldest form of medical treatment.

The holistic approach treats the whole person, integrating the energies of the body, mind and sprit. A variety of techniques and strokes are used enabling you to feel deeply relaxed and producing a feeling of well-being.

By relaxing the body, massage can relieve soreness and tension. Taunt painful muscles can be loosened and relaxed and the circulation of blood and lymph stimulated. This results in the removal of toxins from the body and the eventual restoration of balanced tone in the muscles and greater freedom of movement in the joints.

A massage may relieve specific pain such as back pain, neck and shoulder aches and headaches. People who have high blood pressure, difficulty sleeping, depression and arthritis may also benefit.

The effects of massage tend to be accumulative. One massage may produce an improvement but it may only last a short time; the more regular the treatments, the longer the effects appear to last.
