Yogassage

What is yogassage?

Yogassage is a form of bodywork that combines Western and Eastern massage techniques. It is based on the idea that another person’s touch combined with proper stretches and other movement techniques can bring about changes within the body.

What are the benefits of yogassage?

There are many benefits that can be achieved with yogassage, including the following:

• Strength development—since yogassage differs from regular massage in the way that the patient must hold themselves in a pose, this also means that yogassage can result in physical benefits that cannot be achieved with any other form of massage. One of these physical benefits is increased tone and strength in the patient’s muscles.

• Increased circulation—just as with many other forms of massage therapy, yogassage has the important benefit to the body of increased circulation. This means better overall health, as well as the body’s ability to heal more quickly and fully.

• Relaxation—yogassage, like many forms of massage therapy, results in deep relaxation, especially when it is combined with meditation. When the body achieves such relaxation, it can calm the body’s nervous system and, in turn, strengthen its immune system.

• Overall well-being—yogassage is one of the many forms of body therapy that combines the three main elements—mind, body and spirit—during therapy. Since all three of these elements are addressed during therapy, yogassage leads the patient to better overall health and well-being.

What happens during a yogassage therapy session?

Basically, what happens during a yogassage therapy session is that the patient will be instructed to achieve and maintain restorative yoga poses. While the patient holds the pose, the practitioner will perform basic massage therapy techniques. By doing this, the patient is able to release tension from within the body and achieve deeper relaxation.
