What is body-to-body massage?

Massage has always been considered as the way to achieve wellness, it is a tradition that comes from the most ancient times and even nowadays, if we have pain in any area of the body, we usually massage it to alleviate the discomfort.

In the East there is an entire culture dedicated to massage and it is from there that the most widely used and best known massages come from. It is not surprising that it is so fashionable, as it quickly relieves daily stress due to work, as well as stress caused by family life and everyday life.

One of the first beneficial effects of massage is certainly psychological. Because it enhances the perception of one’s own body, stimulating the blood circulation, as well as the dilation of the vessels, the release of heat and also of energy.

In addition, our body releases endorphins, restoring the body’s balance and blocking all degenerative processes. For this reason, in order to give and receive a correct massage it is advisable to be in a calm and warm environment.

Ayurvedic massage
