Esalen Massage |
Esalen
massage is a type of Swedish massage which is taught and trademarked by the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California. While it has its roots in the
style of Swedish massage, Esalen focuses on energy exchange and psychological well-being, rather than the simply physical results of a massage. While
Esalen massage is beneficial for physical health, the goal of the massage therapist is to tune the mind and body together, resulting in a sense of
serenity and peace for the client.
Esalen incorporates all of the massage techniques found in Swedish massage, and adds aspects of energy work as well. The desired effect is a sense
of harmony and balance on the part of the client. The goal of an Esalen massage is relaxation, although physical benefits may be experienced as well.
Therapists also believe that Esalen strengthens the body to promote healing and psychological health. An Esalen massage can be an intense experience
as the body releases physical and psychological tension, and the therapist and client work together to maximize the experience.
