Selves-care is a relationship skill defined as mutual support techniques that can relax each other via quality time and positive touch. It is a term coined by Dr. Mark Moss, a UK doctor who wanted to explore couples using reciprocal massage therapy in a touched-deprived Covid era to improve relationship wellness. Quick summary: IT WORKS.

The participants of research experienced benefits including:

• Physical wellbeing: chronic tension relief, beneficial for headaches, neck tension, shoulder aches, and night sleep.

• Mental wellbeing: helps not to worry, increase clarity, release emotional stress, lift the mood, provide calmness, comfort, relaxation, and pleasure.

• Relational wellbeing: deeper connection emotionally and spiritually, feeling in touch with each other’s mood, and better communication.

This research is my inspiration for the Couples Retreat Workshop I have developed. My mission is to offer couples learning opportunities to gain new skills that promote their relationship wellbeing.
