Synopsis

Massage is one of the most wonderful ways to relax and is thoroughly beneficial to health. This easy-to-use guide takes you through the basic massage movements, including shiatsu self massage, and explains the arts of aromatherapy and reflexology. Aromatherapy complements massage techniques. For example, lavender can be rubbed into the skin for relaxation, or citrus and rosemary can be used to life spirits. Specific oils and recipes for stress-related conditions are given, as are oils to encourage deep, relaxing sleep, heighten sensuality, invigorate the body and treat common problems such as migraine headaches, poor digestion and travel sickness. Finally, there is an introduction to the use of reflexology, which uses massage techniques on hands and feet that have an effect on all our biological systems. Clear foot and hand charts indicate the reflex zones and points to follow, and full step-by-step techniques for working the whole body are given.
