BALINESE MASSAGE THERAPY, Certified Practitioner Diploma.
A Balinese Massage uses a combination of gentle stretches, acupressure and aromatherapy oils to stimulate the flow of blood, oxygen and qi (energy) around the body. In doing this it will promote deep relaxation and wellness.
It is used primarily for healing purposes and is usually a stronger massage going straight to the problem. The therapist will use deep pressure, applied by her body weight, to release areas of tense, knotted tissue as well as long massage strokes and skin rolling techniques to relieve stress and tension and improve circulation.
A special exotic blend of essential oils are also used to promote harmony of the mind, body and soul.
