Why the name "Arura"?
In Tibetan images of the Medicine Buddha (Sangye Menla) the left hand typically holds a blooming arura or myrobalan plant.
Tibetan medicine recognizes three basic types of illness, the root causes of which are the conflicting emotions; passion, aggression, and ignorance. Myrobalan is the only herb in the Tibetan pharmacopoeia that can aid in healing each of these three types of diseases.

I am fully insured and qualified as a Holistic Therapist and Yoga Teacher with more than 8 years experience
Yoga and Holistic Therapies have helped me a lot, not only to improve the quality of my life, but also to help others. I feel very fortunate for being able to share it with the many friends I have met in the past years. In about fernando there is a list of qualifications and some bits of my background to give you an idea of my path of development during the past years.
I can come to your home as I use a portable futon from Thailand that I can bring with me. Please be aware that this is not a sexual service. I look forward to meeting you.

What type of massage do I give?
Aromatherapy Massage - for those of you that prefer a quiet, relaxing treatment with emphasis on continuous strokes and acupressure to purify and detoxify the body, bringing a general sense of balance. During the treatment I use warm oils with natural essential oils.
Thai Yoga Massage combined with oil massage - this is a more energetic massage incorporating yoga-like movements, muscle stretching and compression to activate the energy around the body. Half of the treatment is done with light clothing (it could also be called a 'lazy yoga class'!) and half with warm oils using acupressure and continuous strokes.
Back pain relief massage - The treatment includes a combination of Thai Yoga massage, aromatherapy, acuppressure and follows with an aftercare programme with simple programme of yoga movements to help alliviate the pain. Please note that it is still recommended that you get medical advise as this treatment aims to compliment and support a medical treatment.
Energising Body Massage - This type of massage is ideal if you need to combat stress or general tiredness, recover from an illness or if you just need a pick-me-up energy boost.
What type of yoga do I teach?
I follow the Satyananda Yoga tradition - a systematic approach to yoga that brings together all the aspects of the human being. During the sessions you will progressively learn classical asanas (yoga postures), different pranayama practices and training your mind and body for meditation. Please follow the links for more information.
