Therapies - Holistic Massage |
Massage helps maintain our general health and fitness, complimenting traditional medicine and offering relaxation from our hectic lifestyles.
The term 'holistic' comes from the Greek word 'holos' meaning whole. The holistic approach takes the ‘whole’ person into consideration, not just the physical symptoms or conditions. Each individual is a complex balance of physical, mental and spiritual aspects that are integrated and directly affected by environmental, nutritional and social factors. Holistic massage is a variant of Per Henrik Ling’s Swedish massage techniques developed in the 19th Century, perfectly adapted to meet the needs of our modern stressful lives.
Holistic massage treatment requires oil and is performed with the client modestly draped with towels at all times.
