 As the pace of our lives increases in these industrialised, technological times, we see an upsurge in stress and stress-related disorders. In response to this, traditional therapeutic methods are being rediscovered and their validity recognised. These methods are being used more and more as complementary to modern medicine.
Therapeutic Massage evokes many beneficial changes within the whole person. It is a powerful treatment because the nurturing touch of the hands on the body works on both physical and psychological levels, and can also relax and/or invigorate the person receiving it.
The techniques of Therapeutic Massage:
- ease pain or tension from stiff or aching muscles
- boost a sluggish circulation
- eliminate toxins
- soothe away mental stress
- restore emotional equilibrium.
Our therapist, Lorraine Hardy, states that regular Therapeutic Massage is a practical form of health care, and many people recognise now that healing comes from within. People have a part to play in helping themselves and others toward optimum health. Lorraine often combines the use of hot and cold stones to enhance the effect of Therapeutic Massage; see LaStone® Therapy for more information.
“The way to good health is to have a scented bath and an oiled massage every day"
