    By Despina Psarra • 02/02/2025
    Clients often ask me how much AYM is too much – really, there is no maximum of how much would be beneficial! Unless you’ve been on a yoga retreat for the past couple of months, in which case, maybe you’re already *really* close to your optimal health. For most of us, that just doesn’t tend…

    I have just completed Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Therapist Training Levels 1-4 with Despina in London and I don’t really know how to put in words increadibly beautiful transformational experience I have just had, so I will mention just few things which make this training outstanding: 1. Despina is a real master in the field of Ayurvedic Yoga Massage, her skills, knowledge, experience and professionalism go much beyond what average massage trainers can offer. 2. She is also super talented regarding the teaching skills, so you can be sure everything will be explained and demonstrated to you in a very clear and effective way and additionally you’ll get lots of guidance and advices regarding practical aspect of starting your own business. 3. The atmosphere is lovely, lots of joy, smile and understanding, there is a space for everybody’s needs, during the training in London everyone felt safe, respected and nurtured. Despina’s approach to her students embraces each student’s uniqueness and individualism while at the same time she creates sense of community and support for each other. 4. The amount and quality of this extraordinary massage you’ll receive yourself apart from giving it – are definitely important additional reasons why this training is absolutely fantastic unforgettable experience. 5. The training is 100% eco friendly and once you try Despina’s healthy delicious food you will want to get all the recipes to try them all by yourself, at least this happened to me 🙂

    Amber’s therapeutic massage service is amazing and highly recommended! She is very sensitive to the needs of the client, conducting the sessions very professionally in pleasant relaxing surroundings. She has the strength and power to make a revealing impact on the aches and tensions of the muscles in a big guy like me with her stretches and acupressure. I’ve told my friends to book treatments with her too as i enjoyed being poked and pummelled so much, especially with the oils and the Ayurvedic herbal remedy infusions. It’s good to treat yourself with her

    I had my first AYM session with Avelino and it was absolutely brilliant!! He listened to my needs and could feel he catered the massage to suit it. I felt really relaxed and restored after it. He also gave me some homework as well in regards to his observations on the imbalances of my body. Super helpful! I was his last appointment of the day so I had almost a 2 hour session with him instead of 1! really grateful for that. All in all, it was amazing and will definitely come back again
