The unique experience that I call Yoga Massage has been developed from a variety of other types of bodywork into one cohesive system for increasing relaxation and flexibility (range of motion) throughout the body. Combining Western knowledge of how the muscles work with Eastern awareness of the energy meridians in the body, Yoga Massage melds the best of both worlds. During your Yoga Massage experience, you should expect to spend part of your session actively participating and part of your session passively allowing your muscles to be stretched. This duality of participation provides a deep relaxation.
Yoga Massage is done on a padded mat on the floor, and is performed with both the therapist and the client fully clothed - please wear comfortable, loose clothing that allows plenty of movement. Yoga Massage puts the therapist and the client into closer contact than most therapeutic massage modalities, so it's often more comfortable for many clients to undertake this type of bodywork after establishing a relationship with their therapist.
