Massage AquaVie & Janzu

Description

These sessions are offered by Emilie Gervais, RMT (registered massage therapist) who is trained in both AquaVie Massage and Janzu. AquaVie Massage is bodywork in warm water where the focus is not only to release muscle tension, but to propagate wave patterns throughout the skeletal structure with precise and rhythmic techniques. It is a structuring massage, as the axes of the body are established via the propagation of the waves. Through pressure and small undulations (the “on earth” equivalent of oscillations) which reverberate through the body, more space in the joints is created, dissolving tensions and making the body breathe as a whole. This massage brings more mobility and will stimulate the body's intelligence to facilitate its healing. The gestures resemble the Trager approach, with rhythmic oscillations, Shiatsu with kembiki, osteopathy with global osteopathic techniques and Watsu with enveloping, nurturing holds. The AquaVie massage is oriented towards a predisposition to transport the body into a space of deep relaxation. Janzu means "peaceful river." And that's precisely what happens: the body lets go like a river gently carrying us along. It is a dynamic aquatic bodywork experience, both on the surface and underwater. This approach invites spontaneous unfolding, often incorporating immersions to evoke altered states of consciousness and a feeling of returning to primal sensations, similar to those of the womb.
