Harmony for body, mind and soul

Ayurveda

The term Ayurveda comes from Sanskrit and combines the words “Ayus” – life – and “Veda” – knowledge. Ayurveda can therefore be translated as “knowledge of life”. Ayurveda is a healing art that dates back thousands of years. It is the health system of the ancient Indian Vedic civilisation and is considered the oldest health system in the world.

Ayurveda takes a holistic approach, taking into account the individual constitution, according to which body, mind and soul should be brought into harmony to maintain health. With nutrition, massages and healing herbal therapies, as well as recommendations for everyday life, you can regain your balance and improve your health, vitality and zest for life. According to Ayurveda, every person has three life energies (doshas). These energies, pitta, vata and kapha, are present in the body in varying proportions. The combination of these energies determines a person’s constitution and personality traits, and thus also their health and resilience.

About me

Hello, my name is Melissa, nice to meet you!
I am a total family person, love being outdoors and have a weakness for good food.
I enjoy the little things in life and am full of gratitude.
For me, it is important to listen to your body and go through life with self-care and mindfulness.

What fascinates me about Ayurveda is that even small things can have a big impact and that it works with supplements rather than prohibitions.
I am inspired by Ayurveda’s holistic and highly individual approach, which reinforces my way of thinking.
I look forward to accompanying you on your journey to improved body awareness, increased well-being and serenity with my massages and nutritional recommendations!

Yours, Melissa Nielsen

For Ayurvedic massages, I only use the highest quality herbal oils, which strengthen, cleanse and revitalise the tissues deep down. The warm oils have a pain-relieving and calming effect on the nervous system. They also activate endorphin production and strengthen the connection between body and mind.

Pregnancy and baby massage

Pregnancy is a very special time that should be accompanied by mindfulness, love and empowerment.
Pregnancy massage offers a nourishing and relaxing break for mother and baby. It promotes physical and mental well-being, alleviates complaints such as back pain or heavy legs, and helps to deepen the special bond with the baby.
Important: The massage is performed from the 14th week of pregnancy onwards. It is not suitable for high-risk pregnancies.

Baby massage strengthens the emotional bond between parents and baby. Gentle touch calms the nervous system, stimulates the metabolism and promotes the baby’s growth and development.
All of this symbolises care, love and attentiveness towards the baby, which strengthens physical and emotional balance.
Using a demonstration doll, I will show you the massage techniques, which you can then apply directly to your baby.
