Recharging the batteries with the 5 elements

The five elements can be considered as a refinement of the principle of Yin and Yang. Each of the five elements belonging to a type of chi energy. The idea behind the five elements is difficult to explain, because just like yin and yang, not one but many thoughts are hidden behind these five elements.

They are like the seasons (autumn being divided into two seasons): spring, summer, early autumn, late autumn and winter. But they are also compared to the time of the day, or the direction of the sun (rising from east to south, falling, and wracked night).

The best way to sense of the elements is by the warmth of the sun reflecting (whether at a particular time of the day, or the location in the season).

Cranio-sacral therapy

What is the course of such a session

After a brief chat you are invited to lie down on the massage table. Through gentle touching, the therapist explores the tensions in the connective tissue and at every step in the treatment he notices an manipulates all local stresses in the tissue which invites to relax.

By the soft touch and treatment of the tense areas and by your own empathy, quick or gradual changes can occur.

It is possible to experience a feeling of heat or cold, tension or relaxation and even memories can come up, which may involve the shedding of emotional feelings.

It is also possible that the body spontaneously gets in a certain position or has certain movements during the treatment. In this case, understanding, respect and attention of the therapist are essential key values. The therapist will invite you (if you want) to talk about what you perceive and feel.

You always decide yourself whether this is your wish or not. It is the cranio-sacral therapist's intention to lead people to their self-healing powers through profound and yet soft sessions. A session is a gift for yourself!

Wellnessinstitute Phyto 5

The Oriental concept of health and beauty originates from Ancient China and has been refined through the ages. Health and long life have always been cherished the most in the East; beauty has always been associated with health.

Beauty was considered to be the ultimate reflection of a perfect balance between physical, psychic and mental health.

Beauty develops when these three factors are in perfect harmony. Health is the source of beauty.

‘Phytobiodermics’ is a collection of skin-care products for face, head and body. The starting idea is the energetical principle of Chinese medicine, where the body is considered to be both matter and energy. The 'Yin' and 'Yang' theory and the '5 Elements' theory ( Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water ) form the basic principles of the Phytobiodermic method.

Based upon this method, Hotel manoir Ogygia opens its new and specialised beauty institute 'Phyto5'.
