Treat yourself to a classic massage at the sakura spa in St. Gallen
You've barely got up and your movements are already painful? Tensions hurt and make life difficult. There are many causes for the pain, and the affected muscles need to be released and relaxed. The tension and muscle hardening runs from the cervical spine to the shoulder region and the upper parts of the thoracic spine, and the pain can also radiate from the buttocks into the arms and legs. The affected muscle area is hardened, feels numb and lacks sensation.
Classic full body massage or back massage
During a classic massage, our therapist can perceive muscle hardening as knots under the skin and work on them to loosen them. They use warm oils from aromatherapy. With a classic massage, the touches are transmitted directly to the brain via the nerve pathways, which relieves pain, releases blockages, reduces stress, pain and anxiety and strengthens the immune system - body and soul get the much-needed break and are pampered, adhesions in the connective tissue are treated so that you feel like you've been reborn. A classic massage stimulates blood circulation and metabolism, relieves tiredness, exhaustion and back pain and creates free paths for new vitality and energy. Full body massage possible from 50 minutes.

Aromatherapy - warm oils against tension
Massages with fragrant warm oils are invaluable because they stimulate circulation and blood flow, relieve mental and physical tension, reduce stress and strengthen the body's immune system. Warm oils can penetrate deep into the tissue and warm the body from the inside out. As if wrapped in a cozy cocoon, a classic massage improves mental well-being and is also recommended for people who suffer from stress, headaches, lack of energy, tiredness, anxiety, depression or sleep disorders or who want to prevent imbalances.
Massage instead of chocolate bars - harmony through hormones
It's a great decision to leave the oversized chocolate bar in the cupboard and add a classic massage to your feel-good battery. Massages release hormones such as endorphins, which make us feel good and relax the body and mind. The feel-good hormone dopamine is released by manipulating the muscles and tendons and stimulates the reward center in your brain, providing a natural high that gives a feeling of satisfaction. Serotonin is a calming hormone that relaxes, aids sleep, and helps combat depressive moods. The love hormone oxytocin, which helps strengthen social bonds, is increased by the touch of a massage. Massages can also help people who suffer from stress by reducing cortisol (stress hormone) levels.
