According to SPA Magazine, an Esalen massage therapist views the work as a time of meditation, using intuition to relate to a client. . . the recipient is gently urged to become an active participant through heightened awareness and surrendering to a deep sensing place. People who have experienced Esalen Massage agree that it is an extraordinary form of bodywork. This unique style of massage integrates the whole body with long strokes, blending wisdom and techniques from other cultures, and weaves new concepts of subtle energy with bodywork. Esalen Massage evolved from the contributions of early teachers at this center for experimental education and it continues to expand and grow as present-day practitioners add to the whole.
