Holistic massage

Hands-on healing from the heart

Holistic massage

Our bodies come with an in-built capacity to heal. Only sometimes we need help to relax and return to this natural place within ourselves. Holistic massage is a deeply therapeutic treatment to help you access naturally restorative states of being through sensitive, nurturing touch. Treatments settle the nervous system, deepen the breath, calm the mind and reduce the effects of physical and emotional stress on the body.

Techniques may include gentle massage, stretches, stillness, breath work or deep tissue work. Each session is unique, bringing my experience, creativity and insight together with a sensitivity to how you are feeling right now. Massage touches us on many levels, so as well as understanding the muscular-skeletal structures, I also have knowledge of key body systems, such as circulatory, digestive, lymphatic and respiratory. Each of us are living, breathing ecosystems and the context within which we live continues to influence our bodies in subtle and often imperceptible ways. The treatments I offer integrate all of these elements to provide a truly holistic experience.

I bring almost 15 years of therapeutic practice and I’ve also studied a variety of healing modalities and integrated various bodywork practices into my life. I have a specialism in working with pregnancy, and after many years of working with women and families during this powerful transition, I am especially interested in supporting clients as they navigate phases of personal change. Through working with my own physical and emotional pain I have developed a level of sensitivity, understanding and presence that allows me to connect deeply with clients of all ages and backgrounds. You can read more about my experience and the rich life experience I bring through my story. I am currently being mentored in Biodynamic Cranial-Sacral, so as I begin to integrate what I am learning there are often moments of stillness where I connect on a much deeper level with the whole system.

Holistic massage is a profoundly nourishing treatment and some clients have described this experience as a journey of reconnection and intimacy with their own inner landscape. I work with the highest grade of therapeutic essential oils and also offer healing sessions with castor oil packs to boost immunity, alleviate pain and bring healing and nourishment to the whole body.

Each massage session lasts 90 minutes and costs 50€. During the first session I take a detailed consultation to understand your overall sense of wellbeing and any areas that need specific attention.

Sessions are specifically tailored to your needs, so the treatment you receive will be unique, following no fixed routine, taking into account much more than just superficial aches and pains. I offer treatments from my home here in Bayacas. Please contact me if you would like to book an appointment.
