While relaxation massage is not strictly considered therapeutic massage, and you certainly don't need the same level of training and understanding, it does have a very important role in stress management so is another service I offer. In our busy lives we often don't give our bodies time to unwind, relax and heal themselves. Even if we are getting enough sleep we often forget to rest our brains (which are very busy during sleeping hours intergrating everything we have experienced the previous day).
Relaxation massage is a wonderful way to take care of our bodies in this way, to recharge ourselves and help restore homeostasis (balance) to our systems. It helps fluid movement around the body and a visceral (stomach) massage will help keep your organs healthy and freely moving. It is totally accepting of your body being as it is, which for a lot of us is a unique experience that can have a profound effect.
