Using a range of different movements including kneading, stroking and compression movements over the neck, shoulders & scalp before finishing by gentle stimulation and strokes over pressure points on the face. At the beginning of the treatment your mind is usually very active but as the treatment progresses breathing slows, the mind quietens and, by the end of the session, you are filled with an overall sense of peace.
