What is ASMR?

ASMR, or the Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, is the pleasant sensation that courses through one's head neck and shoulders when experiencing something enjoyable or when involuntarily responding to a trigger.  Your trigger, the very reason you are inquiring into this service, most likely is massage.  When a practitioner sets the stage for healing the combination of conscious touch and soft spoken words can create a constant session of relaxing 'tingles'.  This sensation has been known to course through the entire body providing clients with an inner peace and leading to a powerful state of alignment.

 

ASMR triggers unrelated to massage may also include anything from sincere personal attention, the flipping of pages in a book, watching a loved one meditate, or having a doctor inspect you in a regular checkup.  Triggers vary widely from person to person.  The most important part is to remember that the practitioner has your deepest relaxation in mind and it is the combined effort of client and practitioner that releases this response and heals our bodies and psyches.
