Overall well-being

Inner harmony

Every individual has the power to improve their overall well-being, but sometimes the body needs a helping hand. As a massage therapist, I can help you find your point of balance while respecting your needs.

Myofascial technique

Fascia release

Fascia is a membrane that envelops and supports organs, muscles as well as nerve and bone tissues to allow movement between the different structures. A lack of flexibility or the presence of adhesion in the fascia can limit freedom of movement. This gentle and deep technique helps stretch the fascia and creates more flexibility between structures.

Therapeutic massage

Muscle relaxation

Swedish massage includes several maneuvers performed on the muscles and fascia at different depths. Muscle tensions can then be reduced to relieve musculoskeletal discomfort or pain. The session will target a specific part of the body.

Anxiety management

Mind-body approach

Professional touch in massage therapy goes far beyond simply touching the skin and muscles, it can reach what is deepest within us. Body and mind are inseparable. The physiological benefits of massage help reduce the effects of anxiety. Practiced in a caring and non-judgmental environment, massage therapy can help you.

Pain management

Individualized intervention

Living with a health condition that causes chronic pain greatly reduces the quality and enjoyment of life. Its impact should not be underestimated. The benefits of massage are recognized to be effective in the management of chronic pain when the approach is adapted to each individual's condition.

Lymphatic drainage

Skin technique

The maneuvers performed during lymphatic drainage (LD) have a specific goal, which is activating circulation in the lymphatic vessels. What is it for? The superficial lymphatic vessels collect the fluid that accumulates in skin tissues, filter it in the lymph nodes and return it to the bloodstream. LD is therefore a technique where only the skin is moved (not the muscles).

​

LD is indicated in all cases where swelling is visible such as:

  • sprain;

  • surgery;

  • extensive subcutaneous bruises.

​

In cases where the pressure applied during a conventional massage causes too much sensitivity or triggers pain, LD is a good alternative.​

​

​ To find out if LD would be appropriate in your situation, do not hesitate to write or call me.

Degenerative diseases

Adapting to the evolution of the disease

The announcement of such a diagnosis will change the course of a life until its end. Often, you will have to resign yourself to ceasing activities that you loved and felt good because it is no longer possible with the disease. Do you know that despite such a diagnosis you can continue to receive massage therapy sessions if they are adapted to your condition?

​

An initial consultation is essential to ensure that the massage can be given safely and to assess what adaptations need to be made. In addition, this meeting is the basis for establishing trust. It is recommended that you choose a massage therapist with adequate training such as massage therapy in oncology.

​

Sessions are possible even under the following conditions:

  • paralysis;

  • dementia;

  • inability to lie down on a massage table;

  • reduced limb mobility;

  • amputation or reconstructive surgery;

  • presence of a stoma.​
