Ayurvedic Treatments in Brighton with Jan Wolsey

Earlier this year I spent 7 weeks in India studying Ayurvedic massage. My massage journey started in India 20 years ago so it seemed right to continue training in the home of Ayurveda. Whilst there I had massage everyday and I feel fantastic for it!
Ayurvedic medicine is the route of all massage treatments and literally translates as ‘life knowledge’. Ayurveda is about wellness all through our lives and not just when we pull a muscle or hurt ourselves.
90 or 120 Minutes of Abhyanga – this is a full body massage the body is anointed with warm sesame oil and long flowing strokes from head to toe, recently a client said that even though the touch was lighter than a deep tissue treatment it gave her body the chance to “breathe and all the aches she had been feeling in her shoulders went”.
Abhyanga is a very balancing treatment, bringing relaxation and peace.
Please get in touch if you would like to know more about Ayurvedic treatments.

stone skimming

I love this article that was on the BBC .  Its fantastic how he likes to warm up and stretch before he skims the stones across the water. We all need to stretch before exercise and before sitting at out computers, regular stretching keeps us supple and more focused on our tasks of the day.
