Qualified Shiatsu Practitioner and Holistic Masseuse in Blackrock, Cork City
I use a variety of techniques in her practice: blending techniques of shiatsu acupressure points, stretching techniques, deep tissue and gentle massage for tension release and deep relaxation. As a therapist, I believes that massage is for everyone and has incredible health benefits.
“Allowing the body to relax and creating engagement with breath-work can bring a sense of calm and recharge all the systems of the body.”
Holistic Massage
The practice of using touch as a healing method derives from customs and techniques rooted in ancient history. The treatment is specific to the clients needs and takes into consideration the whole person: mind, body and spirit.
Massage therapy is a therapeutic treatment that is based on sensitive touch, it aids in manipulating the soft tissues of the human body to produce a relaxed state, as well as alleviating pain, discomfort, anxiety and fatigue. It is beneficial to the circulatory system, the lymphatic system and creates a sense of ease as it stimulates the parasympathetic system.
