Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Therapy with Helena

Welcome to the Calming Palms website - I’m very happy to have you here! :)

Discover a unique body-mind serenity with Ayurvedic Yoga Massage…

Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Therapy is a bodywork consisting of slow, deep touches in the form of glides, kneading, tractions and acupressure, facilitated by medicinal calamus powder and natural massage oils. The massage component promotes blood flow and warms muscles in preparation for various yoga-style assisted stretches. Each session closes with a relaxing head neck and face massage, followed by a little savasana, to settle and reintegrate your being.

What makes Calming Palms?

Calming Palms is all about connection, respect, nurture and acceptance. Bring whatever you want to your session, physical and non-physical, and show up however is natural to you. The time allocated to you is wholly yours - what your body receives is entirely up to you. We’ll work together to design a treatment plan that works for your body; respects your boundaries; and targets whatever areas need most attention.

Ayurvedic Yoga Massage really just hits different. It’s deeply grounding, but also re-invigorates all layers of the body - skin, fascia, muscles, heart, lungs, spine, circulatory systems, digestive system. AYM is a wordless dialogue between therapist and client, and between body and mind.

Sprawl out on the futon and let your body be honoured.
