רציתי להתחלק אותכם במשהו אשר עברתי לאחר הפיגוע בדולפינריום. במהלך כשנתיים אחרי המקרה, חשתי מדוכאת, חסרת שמחה, עייפה ומדוכדכת. בכל טיפול רפואי רגיל לא יכולתי לשקם את עצמי ולכן פניתי ל- [b][url=http://www.maker.co.il/3_15707/%D7%9E%D7%90%D7%9E%D7%A8/%D7%9B%D7%9C-%D7%94%D7%A2%D7%95%D7%91%D7%93%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%A2%D7%9C-%D7%A0%D7%A4%D7%A9-%D7%94%D7%90%D7%93%D7%9D-%D7%95%D7%A2%D7%99%D7%A1%D7%95%D7%99-%D7%A8%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%90%D7%99-(%D7%9E%D7%A1%D7%90%D7%92%60).html]עיסוי[/url][/b] רפואי אלטרנטיבי. ייעצו לי על מעסה מקצועי מ-Spa-Vip.co.il - עיסוי עד הבית, אשר כולל עיסוי שוודי מצויין אשר עורר לי את החושים תוך טיפול אחד בלבד. אני לא יכלה להמחיש את השינוי שעברתי, אומנם זה היה טיפול מסאג איורוודה ראשוני, הרגשתי נפלא, פיזרתי את השיער ויצאתי מה- [b][url=http://www.academics.co.il/Articles/Article12945.aspx]מסאג[/url][/b]' עם הרבה כוח, שמחה ומוכנה להמשיך הלאה.

[b][url=http://www.tapuz.co.il/blog/ViewEntry.asp?EntryId=1679344]עיסוי שוודי[/url][/b] הוא עיסוי המתאפיין ב מוזיקה נעימה, מוזיקה נעימה ומוזיקה נעימה. בהתחלת העיסוי יש מגע מפנק מעל המגבת אחרי שחשפנו את הגוף מכף רגל ועד ראש. מריחת שמן חם מכף רגל ועד הראש, אח"כ תנועה עדינה ומלטפת מכף רגל ועד ראש ובחזרה. לאחר מספר תנועות עדינות עוברים לצד השני של הגוף, לאחר אותם תנועות על צידו השני מתחיל שילוב של לחיצות רפואיות כי הגוף התרגל למגע נעים ומרגיע ודבר זה גרם לשרירים להרפות מעט... כל זה בטיפול ספא מפנק של עיסוי עד בית הלקוח.

אישית לא האמנתי כי דברים כאלה יכולים להיות עד אשר התענגתי עם מסאז שוודי מושקע כלכך, המעסה המקצועי הגיע עד לביתי עם מגע שלא הכרתי שלא האמנתי שיכול להיות. ממליצה לכל אחד ואחת אשר מעוניינים ב עיסוי, מסאג' או פינוק מטריף חושים בסופ"ש על Spa-VIP.co.il.
