MassageAt Holland Park Pilates, our philosophy of treating, nurturing and caring for the wellbeing, or totality of a client, is core to our work. Massage plays an important role in this holistic approach, allowing us to complement Pilates work on a deep and vital level. Our resident, highly skilled masseur offers a range of massage techniques and complementary disciplines which include: Alexander Technique, Reiki, Holistic Massage and Manual Lymphatic Drainage. Holistic MassageBased on Swedish Massage techniques, this system promotes the body’s natural healing processes by breaking down lactic acid build up and thereby stimulating blood flow. It also works on blockages in the lymphatic system to promote wellbeing, the relief of pain and the regeneration of damaged muscle tissue. A client’s occupation, diet, quality of sleep and exercise habits are all considered to create an individual treatment, designed to promote the body’s natural healing process. Holistic Massage harmonises with Pilates to help the individual progress with structural alignment work whilst simultaneously creating a sense of increased wellbeing. Manual Lymphatic DrainageA gentle technique that works through the body's fluid system to activate the circulation of the tissues and stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems. The result of these actions can include reductions in oedemas, detoxification of the body and regeneration of tissue, as well as many other benefits. Manual Lymphatic Drainage employs light to medium-light touch making it an ideal massage therapy for those who are very sensitive to touch or suffer from conditions such as ME. However, everyone can benefit this system, as it plays a vital role in encouraging the health of the body’s natural immune system. Massage complements our approach to recovery and fitness by:
