Discover CareTouch
CareTouch is a well-being method that places touch, presence, listening to the body and kindness at the heart of every session.
The approach draws in particular on the energy traditions of Chinese medicine, Ayurveda and yoga, working with the meridians, vital points and zones, and the energy centres.
Through a precise sequence of gestures and gentle contact, CareTouch invites relaxation, letting go and reconnection with oneself.
The benefits it aims for
- Easing physical and emotional tension.
- Releasing felt blockages.
- Deep relaxation.
- Greater body awareness.
- A sense of balance and serenity.
- Reconnection with oneself.
Each person experiences it according to their own needs and sensations.
A protocol structured in 12 Portes
The CareTouch method is based on a complete 60-minute protocol organised into 12 Portes.
Each Porte is a precise stage of the session, with its own gestures, positions and transitions.
The session can be given over clothing or directly on the skin, depending on the protocol, the person's preferences and their consent.
