Discover the transformative power of Reflexo-Nidra Massage, a unique practice developed by Pierre Montpetit that combines pain-free acupressure on reflexology points with targeted massage of the head, hands, and feet. This innovative approach blends the therapeutic benefits of reflexology with the profound relaxation of Yoga-Nidra, or yogic sleep, to create an unparalleled experience of inner peace and well-being.
In the yoga tradition, Yoga-Nidra is a state of deep, conscious relaxation, where the mind remains awake while the body enters a state of profound peace—similar to the gradual process of falling asleep but with a heightened awareness. Reflexo-Nidra Massage harnesses this powerful state, allowing participants to release stress, nurture self-healing, and promote the circulation of energy and natural detoxification within the body.
Even those who struggle with restless minds during meditation have reported exceptional results with Reflexo-Nidra Massage, finding it easier to access this deep, conscious peace of mind. By focusing on reflexology points, this practice enhances the body’s self-healing processes and provides a gateway to the rejuvenating effects of Yoga-Nidra.

Pierre Montpetit has been dedicated to Eastern wisdom since the age of 19 when he was initiated into meditation and yoga. He started studying Ayurveda in 1984 and was trained in Pulse diagnosis, Marma therapy and Abhyanga-Shirodhara treatment. Based on his 40 years of profound meditation practice and through careful and systematic observation, he discovered the key moments in the art of massage and reflexology. This discovery led Pierre to develop his unique Reflexo-Nidra Massage. His special techniques help his clients in experiencing a wonderful state of Yoga-Nidra. His mastery of foot massage is now fully dedicated to his deep and sincere resolve to care and heal.
