Holistic Massage

During your personalized holistic massage session, physical and energetic blockages are gently released, addressing your current mental and emotional states, as well as your nervous system and imbalances in your Ayurvedic constitution. After many years of working with bodies, I read bodies intuitively (and offer attuned feedback if invited).

You may experience deep relaxation, the release of stuck emotions, and a renewed flow of breath and energy. As a result, your body’s self-healing abilities are activated, leaving you in a calm, balanced, and regulated state.

I blend a variety of techniques, including Ayurvedic Abhyanga massage, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage, classical massage methods, healing touch, as well as energy- and breathwork, to offer a truly holistic experience.

In case of strong activation or heightened tension, I may suggest an upgrade to a Somatic Process Work session – to respond more precisely to what your system truly needs in that moment. This form of support is more in-depth and individualized, and is therefore charged at a different rate.

*I offer my work on a solidarity-based sliding scale. Choose the fee that reflects your current financial situation. If you’re able to choose the higher rate, you support the sustainability of my work while also helping to make it accessible for those who have less.

“Nora’s Holistic Massages are the most professional, enjoyable, and effective massages I have ever experienced. Nora does a fantastic job of listening to you and your body, knowing exactly how to help you and your body relax. Nora has helped me tremendously when I have visited time after time!” Brian

“Nora’s sessions feel like you’ve been blessed, both moving and centring, a true artist at what she does. Mind and body feel completely rebalanced and energised.” Hannah

“Nora is a phenomenal practitioner. She is able to blend a perfect mixture of psychological safety with deep understanding of how the body works. I’ve visited a couple of times and come away feeling rejuvenated, calm and centred. Highly recommend.” Shamil

“From the first moment that I came in to the space I just felt received, and I felt that that was the gesture of the whole experience; being received and listened to. On the table I had the notion that Nora was not just doing a program, but that she was really listening to my body; it felt like she wasn’t just working on A body, but she was working on MY body. That helped me surrender and sink down into deeper layers of myself.” S.
