WHAT I OFFER

WHAT IS “LEV’S HOLISTIC MASSAGE” ? (and how does it differ from other massages ….)

When clients book my massage for the first time, I always explain what I mean by the word HOLISTIC , as it applies in the context of my healing work. HOLISTIC is a frequently used description these days, so I always explain what my HOLISTIC MASSAGE includes, as other therapists may mean something very different!

Firstly, I see the client as a human being, not only with a physical body which can gain relief from muscular aches and pains by skilled manipulation – but we also have an “emotional body” , and a “spiritual body” . These parts may be unseen, but also are deserving of tender loving care. This “ three bodies” concept is the first part of my “Holistic” definition.

Secondly, I aim to combine both “east and west” in my massage. The “west” is represented by over 25 years of various western trainings. The “east” means engaging the more subtle energies acknowledged in eastern traditions – e.g.in acupuncture or reflexology.
This combination of the 2 aspects of my approach defines the “HOLISTIC” description I use in my massage practice.

So, during my massage “energy blocks” may often be detected and shifted, – perhaps working with the breath – helping clients to achieve release of longstanding stuck patterns, connecting with energy channels, meridians and chakras.

Using this subtle approach , mechanically powerful pressure, such as used in sports massage or deep tissue work, is unnecessary – I believe in the phrase “less is more ! ” The touch is gentler and more relaxing than many massage styles, but effects are often transformative, as I guide the subtle energies to the deeper place of healing and the outcome is usually profound.

Chakra Balancing at the end of the session helps the client to realise their potential in all areas of life. This can be a powerful , pleasurable and energising experience.
The east/west combination, together with the 3 layered model, provides a complete healing journey, given professionally but with loving intention. That’s why I spend at least 2 hours on each session, so all the parts of the holistic experience are integrated, for maximum benefit to my clients.

I also offer inexpensive B&B in my guestroom, so you can relax and stay as my guest without having to travel after a session. Please enquire if you wish further details.

TESTIMONIALS

I experienced the love of humanity when you touched me. I became born again – today feels like my 1st birthday…. I had visions of being held in my mother’s arms after birth, so I could accept my existence. I felt every chakra was sparkling !  The best day of my life- I am very very happy !

My shoulder freed up considerably during the session – I’m very excited as I haven’t had that much movement for months. I felt as if many hands were touching me.

When you touched my face, it seemed like my mother’s touch – so I felt loved and safe.

You have a soft touch, but it changed my body – it’s a miracle !
You have the strength of a man, with the gentleness of a woman.
N.I.,Belgrade

I relaxed so deeply, and I had a precious childhood memory. If I had to make a list of special moments in my life, this massage would be one! I felt protected, and the universe changed from dark to light.

I experienced trusting touch from a man for the first time. – you are a great healer. Your massage helped me when I could not accept my own trauma; so when I came home I recommended you to all my friends
