The treatments

Sound Massage and Sound Reflexology

 This technique combines reflexology with the technique of sound massage. Sound Massage is a breakthrough technique that places sound bowls on particular parts of the body in a specified procedure, working through vibrations and careful sound knocking. The sound-bowl (also called “singing bowl”) constitutes a mixture of 7 to 9 different Tibetan metals. It helps the person find harmony, through the sounds and vibrations they produce, when rhythmically or periodically knocked. The body atunes to the vibrations and immerses in a state of deep relaxation that activats the sefl-curing powers of the body. Researches have found that the sound bowls produce a measurable vibration equivalent to the alpha and theta waves generated by the human brain. These waves slow down brain activity allowing better concentration and focus. The combination of the beneficial effects of reflexology and sound bowls give the individual a unique experience of relaxation and wellness.

Hippocratic pressures massage

After a personal interview, the therapist chooses among a variety of techniques and means that are used to boost, diffuse or ease the unbalanced energy blocked in several areas of the body. Cloths, oils and powders are used for this purpose. Hippocratic pressures massage is described in detail in the works of Galinos and is considered to be vital in the prevention and treatment of many diseases.

Reflexology



Reflexology is an ancient natural holistic approach. It has been used in China, Egypt and Greece (Hippocratic meridians). It is based on the existence of reflex points on the soles, the palms and other specific spots of the body that correspond to an organ or body function. These spots are systematically stimulated though special pressures leading to the activation of the healing forces of the body and resulting in the relaxation and harmony of the mind and body. Through the activation of the body’s self-healing capability, Reflexology contributes to the relief of anxiety and other psychogenic problems, such as headaches, migraines, respiratory problems, colds, chronic fatigue, rhinitis, musculoskeletal problems, digestive disorders etc. Reflexology presents no counter-effects and is suitable for all, except pregnant women in the 1st-3rd month of pregnancy.

Asian massage

Oriental massage is a modern specialty massage and a physical therapy at the same time. It includes a variety of treatments and massage techniques from the east. Oriental massage uses a variety of stretching, mobilization and thumb-pressures on specific meridian points. The aim is to provide the greatest possible relief, relaxation and well-being affecting the physical, mental and energy level.
It ensures deep relaxation and releases tension and chronic stress, responsible for many psychosomatic malfunctions.

Head and neck massage

The specialised head and neck massage releases the accumulated tension in the head and neck and prevents headaches, migraines and the cervical syndrome. In addition, it removes the fatigue of the face, making it look fresh and youthful.

Face reflexology


Face reflexology is a modern method, which has been developed through long surveys of over 25 years. The method includes thumb-pressure techniques for
the stimulation of nerve endings, meridians, vascular system and lymphatic drainage, as well as very delicate massage of the facial muscles. It ensures deep
serenity and relief.

Reiki (Usui Reiki Ryoho)

Reiki is a method originated in Japan and has beneficial effects on the physical well-being. This method uses the touch of hands to channel energy that is free in the universe. Reiki is carried out by putting the hands on various parts of the body of the receptor. It restores energy blockages wherever they exist. Reiki complements any medical treatment, medication, psychological therapy or alternative therapy. It helps recovery, rehabilitation and improvement and is suitable for all, regardless of age.
