Short description of the massages:
Shiatsu massage €70
Shi = finger
Atsu = pressure
For a Shiatsu massage, you lie on a futon on the floor.
The characteristic of shiatsu is to apply pressure using only the fingers, palms and especially the thumbs on points that have been related to the central and autonomic nervous systems, giving an activating and calming effect to the entire body.
Our massage therapist will explain how to combine this with the right breathing technique.
Shiatsu massages can be applied for general health care, such as:
- Pains
- Depressions
- Slowing down the aging process(!)
Shiatsu massage aims to improve health in general.
This treatment is done without oil.
Even days after the treatment, you can still enjoy the positive effects on your well being.
Thai massage €70
Thai massage is a type of massage in Thai style that involves stretching and deep massage. This form of bodywork is usually performed on a thin mattress, and the massage therapist wears loose, comfortable clothes that allow for movement. The receiver is put into many yoga-like positions during the course of the massage. The massage practitioner leans on the recipient’s body using hands and forearms to apply rhythmic pressure. A full Thai massage session includes rhythmic pressing and stretching of the entire body. There is a standard procedure and rhythm to this massage. The massage is given in complete serenity. Undergoing a Thai massage is a meditative treatment.
Swedish Massage €60
Swedish massage uses five styles of long, flowing strokes to massage. The five basic strokes are effleurage (sliding or gliding), petrissage (kneading), tapotement (rhythmic tapping), friction (cross fiber) and vibration/shaking. Swedish massage has shown to be helpful in reducing pain, joint stiffness, and improving function in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee over a period of eight weeks. It has also been shown to be helpful in individuals with poor circulation. The essentials oils are carefully selected to keep your skin soft.
