My favorite style massage it´s actually a combination of several techniques.
Beginning whit a gentle Swedish massage and using other styles as Lomi-lomi and Deep Tissue Massage to end up whit a smooth and sensual massage using Aromatherapy movement and techniques in combination whit essential oils that focuses on certain parts of the body (head, face, neck, shoulders,...).
Lomi-lomi
This kind of massage it's a Hawaiian traditional practice and one of the most profound forms of massage.
Lomi-lomi (in Hawaiian 'masseur') is higly recommended to relieve muscle tiredness and improve circulation.
The pressure it's mainly realized whit forearms and elbows and essential olis are used in.
Swedish Massage
It is one of best known massage. It deals with the soft tissue structure of the human body incorporating a range of techniques.
Those techniques are designed primarily to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones; in addition, the rubbing is done in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart.
Swedish massage techniques include petrissage (kneading), effleurage (stroking), friction, tapotement (tapping), and vibration.
Sport Massage
Sport massage uses a combination of techniques to help athletes. The Sport Massage is used to help prevent injuries, to increase flexibility/range of motion, to prepare the body for athletic activity and to maintain an optimal muscle, circulatory and connective tissue condition. It is often used to help athletes recover from workouts and prevent injuries.
Sport massage is typically used in three different situations: pre-event massage focused on stimulation, post-event massage focused on relaxation, and maintenance massage focused on sustained well being.
Aromatherapy Massage
Aromatherapy is a holistic treatment based on the external use of essential aromatic plant oils to maintain and promote physical and spiritual well being.
Lyubos combines your preferred massage style with a choice of essential oils which penetrate into the skin and benefit you as well as the massage itself.
Combining aromatics with the massage strokes helps melt away tension and stress.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It helps release the chronic patterns of tension through slow strokes; in addition, the strokes reveal knots which are sources of tension. Tension is then addressed through careful use of deep finger, knuckle, and elbow pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fibers of the muscles, tendons and fascia.
Clients feel relief when the massage is completed; and in some cases, there may be soreness the next day that will be replaced by the massage's healing impact over the next few days.
Therapheutic Massage
For those who have specific health needs. Manual application to the superficial soft tissue of skin, muscles, ... and structures that lie within by using the hand, elbow, forearm, knuckles, and fingers through the systematic external application of touch, gliding strokes, friction, vibration, percussion, kneading, stretching, compression, or passive and active joint movements within the normal physiologic range of motion.
The focus normalizing and improving muscle tone, promoting relaxation, stimulating circulation, and producing therapeutic effects on the respiratory and nervous systems, and the subtle interactions between all body systems.
