What is Amma massage?
Seated massage, or Amma, is a traditional Japanese massage that means “calming through touch”. It is a massage for relaxation and well-being.
Indications
This massage restores and maintains a state of well-being. It both relaxes and energizes the body and mind. Amma massage activates the circulation of the body’s energies and relieves stress by acting on the acupuncture meridians.
Who is it for?
Ideal for corporate environments and private or public events, it can also be practiced in my office for any audience, mainly adults.
How a session unfolds ?
This type of massage is performed on an ergonomic chair.
No oils or creams are required, as it is performed on clothing.
Each session lasts between 20 and 30 minutes.
I work on:
- upper and lower back
- shoulders and trapeziu
- arms and hands
- head and neck
- legs and calves
I use a variety of manual techniques:
- pressure
- stretching
- percussion

Side effects
Muscles often respond with a feeling of soreness, which should not last more than a day or two. These sensations are part of the relaxation process initiated by the practitioner.
