FAQ 🤓: What should I expect for my first Still Point Signature massage?
Still Point’s Signature Massage is an integrative, presence-based form of massage and bodywork that first took root on the cliffs of Big Sur, California, at the renowned Esalen Institute. In its essence, each session is an invitation to slow down, drop into a deep state of presence and mindful awareness of the bodymind connection, and experience a state of deep rest that we call the stillpoint.
Sessions are designed to regulate the nervous system and support whole-body integration. Expect long, flowing strokes that travel the full length of the body. Pressure is applied with an open, full-handed touch and adapts as the body softens and releases. Practitioners move slowly, listening closely to your body’s cues in real time.
Your practitioner may incorporate a range of techniques such as gentle rocking, passive joint movement, stretching, deep tissue work, acupressure, craniosacral therapy, or subtle energy work. Every massage is unique and attuned to where you are, physically, emotionally, and energetically on the day you arrive.
