Product Description
Synopsis
Highly regarded as a body toner, muscle relaxant and general aid to health and wellbeing, the healing properties of massage can be applied to ourselves as well as others. It is one of the most popular, effective and enjoyable forms of healing, stimulating and maintaining physiological processes like digestion and respiration. It improves muscle tone, joint mobility and postural alignment, enhances the circulation of blood and lymph and balances the hormonal and nervous systems. Not only is massage physically beneficial, it is psychologically uplifting too - during a massage the hyponotic rhythm of the strokes and ensuing relaxation result in a feeling of calm for both giver and receiver. The unique spiral format enables you to stand the book up to look at, keeping your hands free to concentrate on the massage and giving minimal disturbance. You only have to flick the page over to continue the massage smoothly. Healing Massage clearly illustrates how to perform a full-body massage, covering every body part from the top of the head to the sole of the foot on both the front and the back.The healing process also can be enhanced by the choice of oil and information on aromatherapy and essential oils explains how to use them to help intensify the massage and help treat specific problems. - A complete guide: covers basic massage strokes and structure of the body - Information on blending oils and aromatherapy - Clear step-by-step photographic images with detailed instructions and advice for every stage - Spiral-bound format enables the reader to master the skills without fumbling for the next page - Explains how to use massage to target common complaints such as headaches, colds and stress - Includes techniques on how to give yourself a natural energy fix using the power of massage - Features healing stretches to complement the benefits of your massage - There are sequences that you can use on yourself and when you are clothed - Even useful when at work, the benefits of a 'self energy quick fix' can turn a bad day into a good one.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Easy and relaxing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Healing Massage: Techniques to Promote Wellbeing, Ease Common Complaints and Reduce Stress (Paperback)
This book is perfect for someone who has never given a massage before. It guides you through step-by-step so that you know what you're doing. The best thing is it is ringbound so that it's easy to turn the pages mid-massage. There are massages to try on others as well as yourself and you can choose the one designed to ease the 'common' problem you're experiencing. Overall it's good for anyone who's always wanted to know how to give a good massage.
