  • How much Ayurvedic Yoga Massage do you need?

    By Despina Psarra • 02/02/2025
    Clients often ask me how much AYM is too much – really, there is no maximum of how much would be beneficial! Unless you’ve been on a yoga retreat for the past couple of months, in which case, maybe you’re already *really* close to your optimal health. For most of us, that just doesn’t tend…

    Incredibly positive experience for me! Despina and her assistant are such beautiful people with huge experience and intuition -but still keeping humble and on point. Classes are well thought and kept professional without being to rigid or dogmatic. 10/10

    “I had the most beautiful massage experience from Oana. From the beginning and throughout the treatment, Oana put me at ease and wanted to ensure I was totally comfortable. She took the time to get to know me, what I wanted out of it, what areas of my body needed the most work. I loved this holistic approach. The room itself was set up so wonderfully, with sensual aromas that relaxed me immediately and kept me in a tranquil state throughout the treatment. Oana used incredible smelling oils – she let me choice the scents which resonated with my energy; it was fun to choose between such different scents. The massage itself was so special. Oana has a great strength about her which she takes into her massage. My shoulders and back were very tense, and Oana worked with my pain thresholds to help get rid of knots, which is what I wanted. The rest of massage was deep relaxation which was a fantastic unwinding experience. I loved the powder Oana used which gave an extra sensation to the massage, and acted like an exfoliator. This was so exciting and different, and helped bring feeling back to parts of my body which were stagnant. My skin felt incredible after! I am practically insatiable for Oana’s massage technique, and had not felt so relaxed in such a long time. Starting being a bit stressed, to wanting to go straight to sleep after the massage and just chill was fantastic. I would recommend Oana to anyone looking for a massage – her mix of technique plus her energy, love and care is so magical and rare, and just what you need to ground and reconnect you”

    Nawal is the most gentle, tender and determined masseuse! I’ve been twice and both times she’s given me a massage that releases pain and leaves me feeling like a feather. If you want a massage which is like medicine meditation, felt from the heart, with healing hands, Nawal is the masseuse for you!
