Nourishing Touch Massage Workshop - Roundwood, Wicklow

In this 3.5 hour massage workshop you will explore your relationship with touch, your own body, communication and connection with others along with new massage techniques that bring holistic nourishment to the body, mind & soul.

You will learn simple and effective massage skills for head, neck, shoulders, hands and feet while working with one partner.

Most of the time we think of touch only in sexual contexts, however this is not the only time we should be experiencing touch. Touch is essential to regulate the nervous system and calm and restore the body and mind. Intimate touch can be safely explored in the context of this workshop as we will firstly explore boundaries, communication and consent.

Suitable for both couples AND individuals. Beginners are absolutely welcome.

Review of Nourishing Touch:

"I was a little nervous heading into a group of strangers for something like this. But I needn't have been. Ciara created a comfortable space for everyone. She led the group mindfully and created an openness which, for many, was lost in recent months. Her knowledge, experience and intuitive intentional massage guide you to a very restorative place energetically - sort of like a meditative state, deeply nourishing. I'm so grateful for the experience."

"This workshop is such a treat for the body and mind. My partner and I attended together and as we were already in the habit of giving each other massages at the end of the day, we were just hoping to learn some new techniques. However, what we practiced with Ciara was much deeper than just massage tips (though there were plenty of those too!) The biggest thing we took away was how to communicate how we wanted to be touched in a way that was easy and non-judgemental. We highly recommend this for partners looking to strengthen their communication skills and deepen their connection through gentle touch."

"This workshop will definitely make you feel nourished from within! It helped me to reconnect with myself on a deeper level. It reminded me of how important a simple touch can be to feel connected with the other person and yourself. I wish there were more workshops like these to cultivate the art of gentle touch and the importance of communication, openness and mindfulness. I'm extremely grateful for this experience."
