At the heart of The AXO Method lies a profound understanding of the human body’s inner workings. We have meticulously crafted our therapy to reawaken and harmonize the vital circulatory systems governing digestion, blood circulation, lymphatic drainage, urinary function, and immune responses.

Our approach goes beyond traditional massage; it is a catalyst for resetting the delicate hormonal balance within. Discover the signs you may have hormonal imbalances.

The secret of our success

Hormonal balance is vital for both men and women at all ages because hormones play a role in every aspect of health and well-being. Hormones regulate metabolism, mood, sleep, energy levels, reproductive functions, and much more. Imbalances in hormones, whether due to stress, aging, medical conditions, or other factors, can lead to a wide range of health issues. 

Our approach includes osteopathic scooping movements, stretching therapy, and lymphatic drainage which can help address the root causes of hormonal imbalances, reduce symptoms, and promote overall well-being.

osteopathic scooping

Osteopathic scooping is a forgotten movement which is an in depth manual scooping massage technique. Designed to release tension, improve circulation, and promote the body’s natural healing mechanisms, this specific technique helps rebalance hormonal dysfunctions by improving blood circulation. Proper circulation is crucial for the transport of hormones throughout the body. When circulation is impaired, hormones may not reach their target tissues effectively, leading to hormonal imbalances. By enhancing circulation, osteopathic scooping movements can facilitate the delivery of hormones to where they are needed, promoting balance.

stretching therapy

Stretching therapy involves targeted stretching exercises and techniques to improve flexibility, relieve muscle tension, and enhance joint mobility. These stretches can be passive (performed by a therapist) or active (performed by the patient). Stress hormones, such as cortisol, can disrupt the balance of other hormones in the body. Chronic stress can lead to hormonal imbalances that affect various bodily functions. Stretching therapy helps relax muscles, reduce tension, and alleviate stress, thereby promoting hormonal equilibrium.

Lymphatic drainage

Lymphatic drainage is a specialized massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system to remove waste products, toxins, and excess fluid from the body. It involves gentle, rhythmic strokes and movements designed to encourage lymph flow.

The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in the body’s immune response and overall health, including hormone regulation. Our lymphatic drainage at the end of the technique assists in the removal of waste products, including excess hormones, from the body and supports a healthy immune system, which is essential for hormonal balance.

In addition to being an excellent anti-cellulite and draining treatment that helps redefine your silhouette and sculpt your body, the AXO method and Guillaume’s follow-ups are also treatments that prevent from the pain associated with physical exercise. I no longer have the recurrent back pain I used to have after my sports sessions.

Jessica Lemarie Pires

The massages have really helped me eliminate water retention and improve blood circulation. I no longer have problems with heavy legs or pain. I have slimmed down and reduced my orange peel skin. I also noticed a difference on my face, my skin is thinner, my complexion is clearer and I have fewer pimples and fewer fine lines. 

The massages give me a real sense of well-being and I have kept regular sessions for maintenance. Guillaume is very professional and very friendly!!! I really recommend them.

Art Consultant at R.K. Fine Arts

I booked a session with the Axo method the day before my first triathlon, and I had a very good feeling the next day before, during and after the race, with very few aches and pains the next day and the day after.

No feeling of heavy legs and no muscle contractions or cramps even at the end of the run, I really recommend the message before this type of long distance effort.
