To allow a full range of movement and flow during stretching, Ayurvedic Yoga Massage treatment is performed on a mat laid on the floor, similar to Thai massage.
Each treatment is adjusted to suit clients' needs, whether that is relaxing, energising, soothing, deep or remedial.
The treatment is initiated with a sequence to warm up the body, which allows the session to become a moving meditation.
During the treatment, a mixture of oil and ayurvedic herb - Acorus calamus - in the form of powder, is applied to the skin.
Ground Acorus calamus, a root of wetland plant from the sweet flag family, stimulates the flow of blood, which not only helps to further warm up the muscles but also supports the body’s detoxing processes as well as giving a pleasant, warm, exfoliating feeling.

Massage therapy tends to work best with regular sessions.
The effects are cumulative. Over time your body starts to feel like it's holding less - the tension that builds from posture and daily habits, from hard training, from stress, from a nervous system that's been running overloaded for too long.
The body likes patience. Nervous system shifts don't happen instantly - they happen through repetition, through your system learning that it's safe to let go.
With barefoot myofascial work in particular, I sometimes recommend a few consecutive weekly sessions to begin with. Working that deeply into tissue builds on itself, and the changes become much more noticeable when the sessions are close together. After that, once every 2-3 weeks is a good rhythm for most people - though we can work out what suits you.
A single session still does good work.
