Treat yourself to a Classic Massage at Sakura Spa in St. Gallen.
Just gotten out of bed and already feeling discomfort in your movements? Tensions can be painful and make life more challenging. The causes of this pain are diverse, and the affected muscle strands require relief and relaxation. Tensions and muscle stiffness can extend from the cervical spine area to the shoulder region, reaching the upper areas of the thoracic spine, and even radiate down to the arms and legs. The affected muscle area feels hardened, numb, and less sensitive.
Classic Full Body or Back Massage
During a Classic Massage, our therapist can perceive and work on muscle stiffness as knots under the skin. They use warm oils from aromatherapy for this purpose. The touches during the Classic Massage are transmitted directly through the nerve pathways to the brain, leading to pain relief, blockage release, stress, pain, and anxiety reduction, as well as strengthening the immune system. Both body and soul receive the much-needed break and pampering, while adhesions in the connective tissue are addressed, leaving you feeling rejuvenated. A Classic Massage stimulates circulation and metabolism, alleviating fatigue, exhaustion, and back pain, and paving the way for new vitality and energy. Full body massages available from 50 minutes.

Aromatherapy - Warm Oils for Tension Relief
Massages with fragrant warm oils are invaluable as they boost circulation, relieve both mental and physical tension, reduce stress, and strengthen the body’s own immune defense. Warm oils can penetrate deep into the tissues, warming the body from the inside out. Enveloped in a cozy cocoon-like feeling, a Classic Massage enhances mental well-being and is recommended for individuals experiencing stress, headaches, low energy levels, fatigue, anxiety, depression, or sleep disturbances, or those looking to prevent imbalances.
Massage Instead of a Chocolate Bar - Harmony through Hormones
Opting to skip the oversized chocolate bar in the cupboard and adding a Classic Massage to your well-being routine is a fantastic choice. Massages release hormones such as endorphins, which give us a sense of well-being and relax both body and mind. The happiness hormone dopamine is released through manipulation of muscles and tendons, stimulating the reward center in your brain, providing a natural high and a feeling of contentment. Serotonin is a calming hormone that promotes relaxation, supports sleep, and helps with depressive moods. The love hormone oxytocin, which aids in strengthening social bonds, is increased through touch during the massage. Massages can also benefit those dealing with stress by reducing cortisol levels (stress hormone).
