Ayurvedic Massage with Denise
Every Wednesday at High Vibe Yoga Cabin, Grangewood garden centre, Tamworth.
Saturday pop-ups at VC Holistics, water orton, birmingham.
Experience the ancient Indian art of therapeutic touch.
Ayurveda - the knowledge or science of life - works with the whole person. Sometimes described as Yoga’s partner science, Ayurvedic principles guide us how to live in balance and harmony with nature and the world around us. An Ayurvedic specialist will observe a persons natural essence from their body type, skin, eyes, tongue, through to their personality traits and how they deal with the stressors of life. The tridosha theory is unique to Ayurveda - describing each and every one of us as having our own individual temperament - vata, kapha, pitta or a mixture - which is governed by the five elements. From this you may be prescribed certain Yoga asana (postures), meditation or pranayama (breathing) practices, certain foods that might nourish you a little more than deplete you, herbs and massage.
And that is where I come in!
I have been trained in various bodywork practices for over twenty years. I have been bringing ayurvedic principles into my Yoga sessions for many years, offering courses and workshops on this fascinating system and I have trained as an Ayurvedic massage therapist with the incredible Sunita Passi at Tri-dosha. I am pleased to now offer ayurvedic massage treatments every Wednesday at High Vibe Yoga cabin in Tamworth and Saturday pop-up days at V C Holistics in Water Orton.
What to expect
Before your treatment you will be asked to complete a dosha questionaire. This gives me a general idea of what oils I will use for your treatment, what breathing techniques I might offer and what kind of massage I will create for you.
Before your first treatment you will also be asked to complete a health form. Please note some conditions may need a doctors permission before I proceed with any treatment and certain treatments are not suitable during pregnancy.
The massage treatments will mainly take place on a massage bed (other options can be made available).
Oil is used throughout the treatments. This may contain herbs and essential oils.
I may include sound from singing/crystal bowls with your consent.
Guided meditation and/or relaxation.
