AYURVEDIC FOOTMED

Kalari massage derives from the Sanskrit word for "school" and refers to one of the oldest massage traditions in the world.
The technique is based on the teachings of Ayurvedic medicine, where the massage is performed with the therapist's feet on the patient's body in a revitalizing treatment that lasts about an hour. "In addition to being relaxing, the massage promotes the elimination of fluids and toxins, activates the metabolism, increases immunity, and contributes to the rejuvenation process."

Benefits:

This technique is suitable for anyone who needs a more flexible body, as well as those who suffer from insomnia and want to get rid of stress symptoms.

HOT STONE MASSAGE

This therapy is based on the harmonious balance between the human body as a whole and the energy that nature offers us. It brings together important physical, psychological, and emotional benefits. It is a symbiosis of geotherapy, thermotherapy, and massage therapy. This therapy, in addition to being relaxing, goes beyond the typical physical massage experience.

History

In the Yellow Book, written over three thousand years ago by a Chinese Emperor, we find records of the use of hot stones to cure various illnesses. It was also widely used by Tibetan monks around two thousand years ago. There are also records found in indigenous cultures that used hot stones in their healing practices.
