Massages
In Traditional European Naturopathy (TEN), massages are a fundamental component of holistic health practices. At Naturheilpraxis St. Gallen Hinterberg, massages are utilized to enhance physical well-being, align bodily fluids, and promote overall health. Rooted in the principles of humoral pathology, which dates back to the teachings of Hippocrates, our massage therapies are designed to balance the body’s fluids and restore equilibrium.
Benefits of Massages in Humoral Medicine
Massages at Naturheilpraxis St. Gallen Hinterberg offer a range of therapeutic benefits:
- Improved Circulation: Enhances blood and lymphatic flow, aiding in the removal of toxins and promoting healing.
- Tension Relief: Alleviates muscle tension and stress through targeted pressure and soothing techniques.
- Energy Harmonization: Balances the flow of energy throughout the body, supporting overall vitality and well-being.
- Detoxification: Supports the elimination of toxins by stimulating the body's natural excretory processes.
Types of Massages Offered
At Naturheilpraxis St. Gallen Hinterberg, various types of massages are available to meet individual needs:
-
Oil Massage: This technique involves the application of nourishing plant oils to the body with gentle, rhythmic strokes. Oils, such as Aura-Soma blends, are selected for their unique properties to enhance relaxation, revitalization, and healing. These oils also address emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects by restoring the body's natural energy balance.
-
Dry Massage: Performed without oil, dry massages focus on specific pressure points or muscle groups to alleviate tension, stimulate lymphatic flow, and promote detoxification.
-
Connective Tissue Massage: Aimed at stimulating the connective tissue and deep layers of the skin, this type of massage is beneficial for addressing conditions such as back pain, headaches, and digestive issues.
-
Reflex Zone Massage: Based on the concept that specific points on the hands, feet, and ears correspond to different organs and bodily functions, reflex zone massages involve applying pressure to these areas to release blockages and stimulate the associated organs.
