Holistic Therapeutics & Massage

As a holistic massage therapist, I engage with each client, assessing needs and including physical, mental and emotional factors. I then make an appropriate selection from a wide repertoire of possible techniques, customizing the treatment to meet those needs at that particular time. Holistic massage is about setting an atmosphere, creating an energy, being in a particular mindset. The way in which the massage is approached is as important as the massage themselves. For instance, holistic massage may include: classical Swedish techniques such as effleurage; petrissage, kneading, friction and wringing; percussive techniques such as hacking and cupping. Energy work, deeper pressure techniques, passive stretching and cranial-sacral work
