Relaxation Techniques &
Treatments That Do Not Involve Massage
This is a great treatment everyone should have on their menus.
It involves gentle release work to the body using fur, feathers,
energy holds and dry brushing. Sometimes a client cannot be
massaged due to health concerns, lack of muscle and/or other conditions.
This stimulates the nerves and brings the senses up. A great treatment
for those who can' t be touched or do not like touch treatments.
Great for coma victims, nursing home patients or anyone that has
lost their muscles due to atrophy or lack of movement. Sexual
abuse survivors, post-traumatic stress survivors, and many other
special needs clientele.
