Comfort Touch(R) is a nurturing style of acupressure. Its primary
intention
is to provide comfort through techniques that promote deep relaxation
and relief
from pain. Developed by Mary Kathleen Rose, it was originally designed with consideration to
the
physical and emotional needs of the elderly and the ill. It is a deeply relaxing modality that can help quiet the mind and reduce stress for anyone.
The 40-minute session takes place with the client fully clothed in comfortable clothing and lying face-up on the massage table. No turning or face-down positioning is required. You'll start with a relaxing scalp and neck massage. Then each limb will be massaged using rhythmic, shiatsu-style compression strokes and joint holding. Your mind will quiet and you may doze or nap.
