Bodywork

recreating the natural energy flow and self-healing power of your system

More than massage

Like similar to physical movement, there is a lack of physical touch (in a non sexual way) in human society. But in fact its loving touch that nurishes our bodies, calmes our nervousystem and that helps our bodies to activate its self-healing power. The value of touch is limitless, it makes us feel connected, safe and united. 

In recent years I have studied ancient bodywork practices from different traditions.
This has resulted in two different types of sessions that I now offer to the world.

Lomi Lomi Massage

traditional hawaiian oil massage

Lomi Massage is a traditional oil massage with its roots in indigenous hawaiian naturopathy. I practice Lomi Massage in a calm and warm environment, as it is done with lots of oil on bare skin. The oil I use is organic almond, sesame or sunflower oil, if desired refined with essential oils.

Lomi Massage is known for its long strokes and flowing movements, done with hands and forearms, which get the lymphatic system moving. The strokes can be shallow or deep, just like ocean waves, an image that is often used to describe the quality of a Lomi Massage. Blockages that have been manifested in the form of tension in the tissue can be released and the body’s energy is made to flow again, which initiates the self-healing process.

Shiatsu & Thai-Yoga Massage

harmonizing the energetic system

Both Shiatsu and Thai-Yoga Massage are bodywork practices originating in eastern culture, which work with the meredian system (energy lines of the body). Individually I will practice techniques from both traditions, following your needs and my own intuition.

I will be using hands, thumbs, elbows or knees to stimulate the energy lines and pressure points on the body to restore the subtle energy flow, to harmonize the entire energetic system so self healing can take place. You will be guided through stretching and opening positions while remaining completely passive, recieving pressure from my own bodyweight. These passive movements allow your body to release blockages in joints and affected muscle groups.

This full body treatment contributes to a holistic well-being. The massage is done without oil, while wearing light and comortable clothing, given on the ground on a soft surface.
