Therapeutic Yoga and Massage
Therapeutic Yoga and Massage sessions are ideal for anyone who has specific
requirements which would make it difficult to join a general Yoga class. You may have
certain conditions such as arthritis, asthma, weight issues, anxiety, chronic pain or be in
recovery from an injury or operation. Whatever the issue Therapeutic Yoga and Massage
sessions are tailor made to meet your specific needs.
What to expect
The session begins with a consultation to establish what you are hoping to get from the
therapy and any medical history that I should be aware of. The session could involve,
Mindful awareness of body and breath, gentle stretches with hand-on adjustments where
needed to release blocked energy, breathing exercises, visualisation and relaxation
techniques to help us cope with any anxieties and pain we may be dealing with. Massage
and the use of hot stones can also be used as part of the session to aid the body in
relaxing. It is important for the body to be able to relax as it is from this state that the
healing process can begin.
Relaxing Massage - to relax, mind body and soul
This ancient hand-on therapy promotes better health and vitality by increasing circulation
of blood and lymph which helps to clear toxins and waste products from the body.
Massage induces a state of deep relaxation and calm, relieving muscular tension and
stress, it stimulates the body’s own self-healing power and strengthens the immune
system.
Massage Method
I use a fusion of Therapeutic massage techniques, Thai massage techniques, Indian head
massage and hot stones. Mindful breathing and visualisations are sometimes used to aid
the relaxation process making it a unique and complete experience.
