About me......
My name is Jenny and I am the founder of Surreal Holistic Therapy. I chose the name " Surreal " because it means, total relaxation and dream-like state, I like to think the treatments I offer apart from Sports and Deep Tissue therapy allows this to happen!
I enjoy what I do because the first point of contact extends so much further than just the physical wellness. I get to help people feel better physically, emotionally, and spiritually. There are very few jobs out there that allow you to do this, and massage therapy is one of them. People come to me from all walks of life with different types of issues. Some people have been extremely stressed with work, family life, or are recovering from surgery. Whatever it is, I get to help them through it and put them on the path to a successful recovery.
Healing through alternative therapies isn't a quick fix, but if followed consistently and in conjunction with a good healthy diet and exercise program, you'll experience long-lasting results.
Massage is one of the oldest forms of medicine according to Hippocrates of Cos (460 to 375 BC) and used as a healing tool, to treat the whole person's physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the body to achieve optimal wellness in Ancient Africa, China and India.
On my travels to Africa and Far East Asia, I was amazed at how many people including families young and old, would book in for a massage instead of visiting their General Practitioners. I was so impressed that, through extensive research, I enrolled on an Aromatherapy Balinese massage course at Bali Bisa the International Spa Academy in Bali, which was truly amazing as I learned more about ancient massage rituals and techniques.
The Balinese (Eastern) massage is a form of deep tissue massage designed to work almost every muscle in the body. Originating on the island of Bali, this massage involves a combination of techniques, including, acupressure, reflexology, and aromatherapy into one session. Often used for relaxation, this type of massage also helps to loosen muscles and ease the pain.
