THE ENERGY ASPECT OF WELL-BEING
At certain moments in life we are full of energy, ready to face any situation with determination and optimism. At other times, our strength seems to desert us, we feel exhausted, tired and frustrated. According to Classical Chinese Medicine, it all depends on the flow of Qi, the vital energy that animates the universe and permeates all living beings.
From the very beginning, Eastern preventive medicine has focused on the concept of energy and how it affects the well-being of our body and mind. Its free flow ensures the proper functioning of the organism and all its vital functions. This is why Lefay SPA energy massages work on the body’s energy levels.
An erratic lifestyle, hectic and stressful daily routines can upset your inner balance and interrupt your vital energy flow, causing a so-called energy blockage. These blockages can result in a variety of health issues, including fatigue, persistent pain, digestive and sleep disorders, or emotional problems. The use of energy treatments to restore balance and energy flow is a fundamental pillar of the Lefay SPA Method.
Our therapists work on specific points to be treated according to the person’s energy alteration. The manual techniques stimulate “points and meridians” that activate the “energy” function, thus ensuring a deep and long-lasting result. This method enhances the effects of a traditional massage, because the body receives an “energy message” which will be remembered and elaborated over time.
Among the treatments designed to combat fatigue and send a ”vital” message to the body, ”Alta Marea” is suggested. The aim of this treatment is to nourish the body at its deepest levels by ‘flooding’ it with a ‘sea of vitality’, stimulating the energy points responsible for energy circulation and providing the body with the energy it needs to function optimally. It is performed using Western techniques such as effleurage, envelopment and friction to simulate sea waves: hence its metaphorical name.
