Benefits of Massage and Reiki
What is Massage?
Massage is a therapeutic practice that uses structured touch and rhythmic movements to relax muscles, ease tension, and support overall well-being. Through techniques like gliding strokes, kneading, and gentle pressure, massage promotes circulation, reduces stress, and is an excellent complementary therapeutic practice.
