Qualification: My name is Lisa and I am a graduate from the Holistic College Dublin where I attained an ITEC Diploma in Holistic Massage and ITEC Diploma in Sports Massage.  Membership: Irish Massage Therapist Association (IMTA)

 Holistic Massage

 Holistic massage involves the classical movements of effleurage, petrissage, tampotement and friction which provides a relaxing massage starting from the legs and feet and working my way up to the head. Holistic massage benefits circulation, blood pressure and heart rate. It helps relax muscles, increase joint mobility and release of endorphins. Holistic massage also helps with increasing  lymphatic flow, improves immune function via stress reduction, and supports improved digestion with relaxation. The Mental and Emotional effects include an increase in positive mental health, reduction in anxiety, and general feelings of well-being.

 Sports - Pre and Post Event Massage

 Pre event is a type of massage used as part of a warm up for an event. This massage is fast pace and vigorous in order to stimulate the circulatory and nervous system to prepare for an event and increase performance potential.

 Post event massage is used after the event to relax and help the body recover from exertion of the even by removing toxins and lactic acid from the muscles thus reducing and enabling a faster recovery.
