Massage Offerings

Ayurvedic Yoga Massage is traditionally performed on the floor using a wide, thin yet comfortable mattress. The technique involves a synergistic use of deep tissue oil massage, passive stretches, and synchronized breathwork.

Ayurvedic Yoga Massage being an oil massage, you will receive your massage while keeping your bottom undergarment. In order to preserve your intimacy and ensure that is no indecent exposure, the body parts that are not worked on will be covered accordingly. All pieces of jewelry should be removed prior to the session, as well as any glasses or contact lenses. Hair must be attached to better facilitate the access to your neck. In order to fully appreciate the benefits of the massage, it is recommended not to eat at least 2 hours prior to the session. Taking a shower is also advisable.

Unlike most of the other types of Ayurvedic massages that are known to use an important amount of oil, Ayurvedic Yoga Massage has been designed to limit its use and is only applied sparingly. All oils used (grapeseed or almond) are organic. They are nourishing, relaxing, and do not leave any greasy residues, which allows you to get dressed and carry on with your day. Raphaël will also offer you the possibility to bring your own oil if you wish to do so.

Most of the Ayurvedic Yoga Massage sessions last around 2 hours. As you fall into a deep state of relaxation, sense of time is easily lost. What appears to be a long massage at first on paper will in reality be a pleasant experience, leaving you with a deep sense of well-being.

As of today, Kůra Růka is unfortunately not in a position to offer massage therapy to pregnant women, individuals with cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, diabetes, active cancer, circulatory and coagulation disorders, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, infectious diseases, or severe disabilities. In case of arthritis, inflamed muscle, muscle tear, bone fracture, sprain, tendinitis, or varices, the massage session will be adapted accordingly.

In order for your body to better assimilate the benefits of Ayurvedic Yoga Massage, here are some recommendations to follow:

• You may experience body aches in the next 48 hours, which is a normal reaction from the body. Tension accumulated for long periods of time indeed releases toxins when massaged. Feel free to move your body the day after your session: light yoga, walks in nature, and swimming are particularly suitable activities.
• Stay well hydrated during the next two days to reduce the risk of inflammation and to balance your body fluids.
• If possible, do not go to bed at late hours and maintain a regular sleeping schedule.
