Amma Massage
Amma massage is an ancient therapeutic massage that dates back to 2697 B.C. and is based on traditional Chinese medicine.
This massage is based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and uses all the techniques of the major forms of therapeutic massage.
Pressure and touch are applied to specific points on the body as well as the energy channels (the same channels as acupuncture) on which they are found.
The aim is to restore, promote and maintain optimal health by removing energy blockages according to individual needs.
Principles of oriental massage
Yin & yang are the polarity of forces that actively change throughout the day, season life, but maintain a balance.
The body is a microcosm of the universe with the vital force (ki in Japanese) circulating through
energy pathways known as channels, of which there are twelve.
Balance and flow of ki are needed to maintain health.
The stimulation of the 361 points or openings along the channels moves the ki, affecting an organ system and freeing blocked energy-enhancing wellness.
