CON-TATTO, New Approaches to Wellness
The current situation has clearly highlighted just how much the circumstances and environment we are immersed in affect our perception of things, of what we value, of ourselves and, certainly, of our very concept of wellbeing.
The Covid-19 emergency, in fact, led us to question the meaning that wellbeing held for us before, and the new meaning this situation has led us to develop. If the circumstances around us change and our status is so quickly called into question, our perception or idea of wellbeing must also necessarily flow and transform into something new.
The experience of self-care, which in itself already holds the purest part of wellbeing, is achieved when all the elements that create it are in harmony and synergy with one another: the place I choose for my wellbeing, the people I trust to take care of me, the details a treatment is made of, the scents, the techniques and what is transferred through them from one person to another, empathy and dedication, the energy of touch.
Of touch, certainly, but above all with oneself and the vision we have of ourselves, through the eyes and hands of those we choose to care for us. Tactility and the sense of touch have long been, rightly, at the heart of the wellness experience, shaping the techniques and gestures that make up a treatment.
