Aquatic Bodywork (Watsu) at Posture Dynamics
What is Aquatic Bodywork (Watsu)?
Aquatic Bodywork, also known as Watsu, is a deeply relaxing, therapeutic form of bodywork performed in warm water. This gentle therapy combines elements of massage, joint mobilisation, stretching, and acupressure, all while being supported and guided in water. The buoyancy of water allows for effortless movement, helping to release tension, improve mobility, and restore balance in the body and mind.
At Posture Dynamics, we offer one-to-one Watsu sessions, where our experienced practitioner provides personalised floating therapy to promote deep relaxation and healing.
