AlyssaLast month I had my first yomassage at Massage Móvil‘s new location and it was unbelievably peaceful. I left feeling refreshed in both mody + mind.
The “yo” in yomassage is based on the principles of yoga: focus on the breath (pranayama) and the yogic philosophy of looking within. The combination of touch, gentle stretch, and mindfulness provide an avenue for relaxation and healing.
The yomassage begins with a guided meditation to set your intention and begin to wash away the worries and stressors of the day. I fell into a state of relaxation quite quickly because of the calming atmosphere Nichole, the owner of Massage Móvil, has created. Candles were lit (by an amazing local brand, Karma Candle Makers! I left with two for home use) and the studio feels very intimate. You feel like you’re taken care of.
After your mind begins to settle, you move into your first yoga posture with the assistance of bolsters, blocks, blankets, and a yoga massage ball for personal use. The yoga postures are meant to slowly guide you into deep relaxation. While you’re in these very comfortable positions, Nichole will come by and massage certain areas of your body, leaving you feeling rejuvenated every time you switch postures.
