I'm Bart Conterio, Mind-Body Therapist, I have developed a program of massages integrated with meditation, specifically designed for Female Psychophysical Well-Being. A 3-hour sensorial massage, capable of instilling particular emotions in a woman, that profoundly influence her state of mind and her physical and psychological well-being, in the hours, days and weeks following the massage. An infinite well-being that adapts to the needs and requirements of the woman at a given moment, based on the emotional and bioenergetic state. After a mindfulness TOUCH® session, women say they feel more alive, more serene, in perfect psychophysical peace and harmony and more connected with themselves. It's a break with a regenerating effect: some of my clients have compared their state of psychophysical well-being, after a 3-hour mindfulness TOUCH® session, to "a holiday weekend without the stress of travel".
