This gentle practice may provide the recipient with mental calmness and an improved sense of well-being.
Treatment
First, the practitioner conducts a short interview to learn about the individual's needs and concerns. The session takes place with the client either sitting in a chair or lying on a massage table, fully clothed, with the option of removing his/her shoes. The practitioner's hands lightly touch or are held a few inches away from the body. Most participants report feeling relaxed and calm after a session.
Benefits

- Increased sense of physical and mental relaxation
- Reduction in anxiety and perception of stress
- Decreased levels of pain and tension
- Improved overall sense of well-being
