About Holistic Massage
Holistic massage therapy is a very effective form of massage that has as wide range of health and wellness benefits. The word ‘holistic’ means to look at the ‘whole’ of something. This form of massage therapy is designed to treat the whole of a person. Not just physical issues, not just certain mental aspects, but the spiritual and emotional well-being of the client too.
What to expect?
The massage draws from a wide range of massage techniques. Therapists trained in holistic massage have typically been through a much wider training curriculum and have a lot of different skills to utilize. The core principles are similar to a Swedish massage. The goal is to improve circulation, stimulate lymphatic drainage, and work on any areas of tissue that need some attention. However, the therapist can put some added emphasis on creating a relaxing environment if working on a client’s emotional stability. Or concentrate on specific pressure points and meridians to resolve related health issues.
What to do after the session?
Don’t forget to drink plenty of water afterward to ensure you’re hydrated. It’s normal to feel a little lightheaded too, especially after your first session. This is largely due to your body starting to flush toxins. This can take a toll on your energy levels at first, and can also lead your muscles feeling tired. Once you’ve had a couple of sessions however you should start experiencing levels of natural energy like you’ve never felt before.
Disclose medical history
Obviously, you’re not obliged to reveal anything you don’t want to. But the more information you are willing to reveal about your previous and current state of health, the more information the therapist has to work with to tailor the massage to your personal needs.

On request the sessions can be tailored to specific stress container areas (e.g. extra attention to calves if you're a runner or tri-athlete).
