Holistic Massage Therapy

There are three main elements to a holistic massage:

The whole of you

Holistic massage takes into account the whole of you, including your physical, emotional and mental state on the day. Therefore, every single massage is completely unique, as your needs will change from day to day.

A whole range of techniques

During the massage, there is a process of communication occurring between me as the practitioner and you as the client. Most of this communication will occur through touch and response, where I will be paying attention to how your body is responding to my touch and choosing the most appropriate technique to use for you in that moment.

The techniques I might use to personalise your massage include:

• Light massage, skin massage and skin rolling

• Deep tissue work

• Rocking and vibration

• Breathwork

• Stretching

• Mobilisation

• Trigger point therapy

• Percussion

• Energy work

• Still holds

My whole attention

During your massage, I aim to be fully present and focused, whilst also drawing on knowledge and experience, in order to give you the best therapeutic massage possible.
