TOUCH THERAPIES

Touch Therapy is treating body's ordinary sicknesses with a careful massage with hands and sometimes feet.

Aromatherapy- Aromatherapy means "therapy i.e. treatment with aromas i.e. perfumes or scents". It is a natural treatment through massagefor the body’s ordinary sicknesses with pleasant smelling botanical oils such as rose, lemon, lavender, pine, peppermint and so many others. These essential oils are added to the bath or massaged into the skin, inhaled directly or diffused to scent an entire room. Aromatherapy is used for the relief of pain, care for the skin, alleviate tension and fatigue and invigorate the entire body. Essential oils can affect the mood, alleviate fatigue, reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. When inhaled, they work on the brain and nervous system through stimulation of the nerves and produces the desired effect.
The essential oils are extracted from plants, flowers, trees, fruits, bark, grasses and seeds with distinctive therapeutic properties, which improve and prevent illness. Most of these oils have antiseptic properties; some are antiviral, anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, antidepressant and expectorant. Other properties of the essential oils which are taken advantage of in aromatherapy are their stimulation, relaxation, digestion improvement, and diuretic properties. To get the maximum benefit from essential oils, it should be made from natural, pure raw materials. Synthetically made oils do not work.

Massage therapy- Massage Therapy has four main stages of healing through massage: relief, correction, strengthening, and maintenance. 1) Relief: The first few sessions of massage therapy will be aimed to relieve pain, reduce muscle tension and relax stressed nerves. 2) Correction : When the pain is gone, the therapist will work on the problem that caused the pain. Techniques will be aimed at stimulating your lymphatic system and freeing knotted and scarred muscle fibers. 3) Strengthening : Strengthening is important in a badly damaged area. Weakness at the injury site can mean recurring problems. Techniques are aimed at strengthening the tissues near the injury enabling them to provide adequate support to heal the injury. 4) Maintenance : Maintenance is the final stage of therapy. Maintenance techniques are aimed at treating the problem and preventing the occurrence of new problems.

Reiki- Reiki is a form of massage therapy. It is a healing technique that originated in Tibet and has been practiced for over 2,500 years. It is believed that reiki can relieve pain, boosts the immune system and relieves acute problems because physical manifestations of pain are often linked to emotional, mental and spiritual states. Reiki practice consists of the practitioner placing his hands upon the person to be healed with the intent for healing to occur, and then the energy begins flowing. The reiki practitioner uses their hands to channel energy from the universe to your body so your body can heal itself.

Sports Massage- Sports Massage is a special form of massage and is typically used before, during, and after athletic events. The purpose of the massage is to prepare the athlete for peak performance, to drain away fatigue, to relieve swelling, to reduce muscle tension, to promote flexibility and to prevent injuries. The main purpose of sports massage therapy is to help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity. Where minor injuries and lesions occur, due to overexertion and/or overuse, massage can break them down quickly and effectively. Sports massage can help prevent those niggling injuries that so often get in the way of performance and achievement.
Depending on the needs of the athlete, a variety of techniques are used. The techniques that can bring good results are Swedish Massage, Shiatsu and also Ayurvedic massage. Each type of sport has different demands on the players. Each sport uses muscle groups in a different way. Sports massage is designed to address those specific concerns and may differ according to the sport the athlete plays.
Sports massage reduces the heart rate and blood pressure, increases blood circulation and lymph flow, reduces muscle tension, improves flexibility, and relieves pain. Sports Massage can also include pre-event, post-event and maintenance techniques that promote greater athletic endurance and performance, lessen chances of injury and reduce recovery time.
