Sound Therapy
During a massage, we incorporate the concept of source vibrations, which refers to utilizing specific frequencies and rhythms to induce a deeper sense of relaxation and promote a more profound state of well-being. By integrating these intentional vibrations and rhythmic movements into the massage experience, our clients experience a heightened sense of calm, reduced stress, and a greater connection to their body’s natural rhythms. These vibrations can enhance the overall impact of the massage, fostering a more holistic and soothing experience for the recipient
Sauna
Sauna is a room designed to be heated to very high temperatures, where individuals sit and experience both dry and wet heat.
Sauna sessions may offer a range of potential health benefits, including
• Improved circulation
• Relief from muscle tension
• Promotion of skin health
• Potential support for post-exercise recovery.
For instance, when a person sits in a sauna, their heart rate increases and blood vessels widen. This increases circulation
