Basic and Essential Principles<\/b><\/span><\/p>

  1. CONTINUOUS CONTACT WITH THE RECEIVER. I do not leave them even for a moment.<\/li>
  2. I TAKE CARE OF MY CLEANLINESS. The space is not only clean but appears clean. The receiver senses my overall cleanliness too. Always wash hands before and after each treatment. I make sure I am washed and lightly scented.<\/li>
  3. CORRECT BODY POSTURE. Pressure is applied to the client\u2019s body using my whole body weight, not only my hands. This means I move my whole body. My movement should come from the “hara” (abdomen, shiatsu term), not only from the arms.<\/li>
  4. SENSE OF DANCE DURING THE SESSION. The whole body moves through the various strokes as needed. I can coordinate with music and introduce a rhythm into my treatment. A good treatment carries the flow of my body.<\/li>
  5. PREPARATION OF THE HANDS. I ensure my hands are warm before touching the client. I also prepare their suppleness with stretches to protect myself from tendonitis and to ready them before the treatment.

    IMPORTANT PRINCIPLES FOR AN EFFECTIVE TREATMENT

    <\/li>
  6. A good INTENTION toward the receiver. I intend to help them find relief.<\/li>
  7. CONCENTRATION IN THE MOMENT. Being focused allows me to give my best to the receiver. During the day I naturally have many thoughts\u2026 To live the moment, I return to observing my body and the receiver; sometimes I silently say a prayer to calm myself during the treatment.<\/li>
  8. INTUITION AND CREATIVITY. There is no fixed, predetermined program; the approach adapts to the client\u2019s needs. Even the same person may need a different care each time. Each session can be entirely different because both I and the receiver change with the moment.<\/li>
  9. THE RECEIVER RECOGNIZES AND PERCEIVES MY STATE. What mood I am in matters. If I do not feel well-disposed toward a particular client, I focus on the moment: feeling my body, my heart, and simultaneously the client\u2019s body, noting areas that are tense or rigid. This means practicing objective, nonjudgmental observation about whether someone suits me or not.<\/li>
  10. GIVING AND RECEIVING. I offer touch and simultaneously receive touch. I apply pressure and at the same time accept the corresponding pressure on my own body. There is action and reaction. I respect the client\u2019s limits, applying pressure and tolerable discomfort only up to the point the body begins to react.<\/li>
  11. COMMUNICATION WITH THE RECEIVER. I allow the receiver to speak or express themselves when they need to. As an alternative therapist I don\u2019t need to talk much, but I can participate minimally so the client can open up and release what they need to. This will relax them and assist self-healing. Massage is an adjunct (like exercise and nutrition) that leads to well-being, pain relief, and psychological relaxation. True healing comes from the client\u2019s own awareness and willingness to change. Therefore I don\u2019t chat during the session but I listen attentively and gently invite expression if it helps.<\/li>
  12. VOICE. Calm and gentle, friendly tone. Speak slowly.<\/li>
  13. PERSONAL BOUNDARIES. If I feel a behavior is unacceptable to the point I need to stop, I must interrupt the session.<\/li>
  14. TECHNIQUE ADVICE
    BREATHS. Coordinate my breathing with the rhythm, pressure, and strokes I apply. My breath gives life to each moment. I exhale with the pressure and strokes, guiding the treatment with respect and proper rhythm.<\/li>
  15. SENSE OF SELF. Observe my own body: my breathing, heartbeat, blood flow, and any changes during the session (e.g., hand pain, tendon tightness, spinal tension). I also monitor my posture. It must protect me and ensure my strength comes from my center, the “hara.”<\/li>
  16. SENSE OF THE RECEIVER. Observe the client\u2019s body using a) touch to detect texture, folds, and differences in tissue; temperature differences area to area; b) sight for marks or color changes; c) hearing and d) smell, which can also help. All senses guide me to recognize the client\u2019s needs at that moment.<\/li>
  17. RESPECT FOR THE RECEIVER. Cover the client with towels and blankets, ensure warmth and comfort with pillows, and expose only the area being treated, re-covering it as soon as that area is finished.<\/li>
  18. OVERALL SENSE OF CALM: Do not rush movements. Fewer relaxed maneuvers are better than many hasty ones. Avoid having both hands in the air at the same time, even for a second.<\/li>
  19. PAIN\/RELIEF. Monitor all signs so the client does not feel excessive pain during the session. Pain should be enough to be felt but be a \u201csweet\u201d pain that gives a sense of relief, not so strong that the client clenches. When muscles contract against the pressure, treatment becomes less effective. I press until I sense the body\u2019s reaction, focusing both locally and on global indicators.<\/li>
  20. ABDOMEN. Touch with special respect. Avoid abdominal care except in particular cases. I place the client\u2019s right hand over their navel and touch above it, sensing from there.<\/li>
  21. STRETCHES. I apply some basic stretches in nearly every Swedish technique: cervical lengthening, plantar flexion in supine, shoulder downward pressure, etc. Stretches are a core tool used together or simultaneously with other hand techniques. They lengthen muscles and enhance the intended outcome.<\/li>
  22. ARM PENDULUM. In prone position, let the arms hang first; gently pendulum them to relax, allowing the client to release their weight into my hands; then I lift the arm onto the table, supporting the client\u2019s forearm with mine.<\/li>
  23. SURFACES AND TYPE OF MASSAGE. Large contact surfaces aid relaxation; small contact points (fingers, elbow) produce deeper and more intense work.<\/li>
  24. ANGLE. The more perpendicular the angle, the deeper and more intense the massage; the more horizontal, the more superficial and relaxing.<\/li>
  25. AMOUNT OF OIL. The less oil, the more friction\/tissue grip and the more intense, less gliding strokes become. With more oil, the hands glide and friction decreases, producing a more relaxing effect. Use the correct amount of oil\u2014not too little (hands won\u2019t glide) and not too much (loss of control and unpleasant slickness for the client).<\/li>
  26. INITIAL SLIPS. The initial application of oil to the massage area is done at a deliberate, ritual pace; the spreading gives the receiver the first impression and should not be rushed.<\/li>
  27. FLOW AROUND THE SPINE. Do not cross the spinal column; move circularly around the head or the end of the spine. I may pass over it only for specific maneuvers, without applying pressure.<\/li>
  28. BASIC TOUCH POINTS: Hands (paws), head, neck. I touch these points in every massage to give a holistic feeling, even when working only on the back. When massaging the hand\/foot (reflexology), I use reflexology references to locate pressure points.<\/li>
  29. OPENING AND CLOSING THE PROGRAM: I begin and end the session with pressures over the towel or clothes.<\/li>
  30. SUMMARY

    If I summarize my principles in a few words they are:
    BREATH \u2013 TOUCH \u2013 SENSE \u2013 PERSONAL CREATIVITY \u2013 IN THE MOMENT<\/li><\/ol>
