The spiritual energetic massage consists of stimulating the reflex points of the chakras on the sole of the foot. The whole massage will take place right on the foot. The stimulation of each single point is accompanied by a very specific mantra sound. Mantras are particular sounds which, when recited and repeated for a long time, are capable of leading to states of high meditation and peace. The mantras used during the massage are connected to the individual chakras and listening to them enhances the massage itself.
