Ayurvedic yoga massage is a unique system of body work that combines deep tissue massage with coordinated breathwork and assisted yoga stretches. This treatment is carried out on a mat on the floor for free movement and flow. Deep tissue massage helps to remove knots and adhesions in the muscles and soft tissues, releases tension and prepares the body for yoga stretching.
A topical Ayurvedic herb is applied to the skin with a small amount of oil and acts as a blood detoxifier and nerve tonic. Through synchronised breathing the receiver is led progressively deeper into assisted yoga stretches that help correct postural imbalances and restore balance to subtle energies of the body.
These techniques incorporate the use of the hands and feet as tools for massage. This unique comprehensive approach to the body dissolves physical and emotional blocks, helps eliminate toxins, promotes correct posture, improves respiratory patterns and enhances energy levels leaving the receiver with a profound sense of well-being.
