SERVICES Spineworks and Remedial/Sports/massage.
Most chronic adult muscular-skeletal problems have their basis in childhood accidents or long term postural imbalances that have created stressful compensation mechanisms in the body. These eventually reach a level where the body cannot cope and so something small may cause major spasm and pain – this is typically the ‘last straw that broke the camel’s back’
Spineworks primarily addresses the soft tissue as pain is felt in muscles and it is muscles that hold the structure out of place. Addressing the soft tissue first relieves the stress on the structure and helps realignment. Once the muscle spasm has been released any skeletal misalignments can be gently encouraged back.
Spineworks incorporates many techniques such as neuromuscular, muscle energy techniques, gentle manipulation, massage, acupressure and specific exercise.
This system recognises that each person is unique and the development of the pain pattern will be unique to that person as will be the treatment. Spineworks is a complete and holistic therapy –therapeutic and remedial and works for acute as well as chronic problems. It is also a very useful preventative tool as many potential problems can be dealt with before they cause acute or chronic discomfort.
Reflexology
This is a method of activating the healing powers of the body by pressure and massage on the feet and hands. It can help overcome a broad range of problems from chronic ailments, weight and stress disorders to specific more acute problems such as insomnia, inflammation, pms and pain. It can assist in recuperation from all types of illnesses from ‘flu’ to major surgery or simply to aid relaxation and maintain good health. I can offer a number of reflexology techniques including Chi Reflexology, Nerve reflexology, Vertical reflexology and Precision reflexology.
Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy sessions combine the highly effective qualities of essential oils with the relaxing benefits of body massage. My approach is holistic, offering benefit to the complete person, relieving mental stress and emotional pressure as well as physical discomfort. Clients have a full consultation with me to formulate the optimal blend of oils for their specific conditions and issues and the treatments are designed to meet individual needs.
Aromatherapy can be used to address a wide range of conditions from acute to chronic or simply as relaxation and to maintain good health.
Reiki
This is a hands-on healing technique which is thousands of years old. Reiki means ‘Universal Life Energy’ This energy flows within the body and when disrupted the functions and structures of the body are weakened. Reiki works with the body energy and heals by flowing through the affected parts restoring and balancing energy levels. Reiki can be used to address a wide range of conditions from acute to chronic or simply as relaxation and to maintain good health.
I can also offer, as a Reiki Master, classes at all levels, to anyone wanting to become a Reiki practioner. My classes are small and times are arranged to meet the needs to the student.
Stress management/Meditation
Stress is part of everyday life. At the right level it will stimulate creativity and activity, but too much stress can have serious implications for physical, mental and emotional health and well being.
Through counselling the causes of stress are identified and techniques developed to alleviate the harmful effects and enhance the quality of life.
Specific techniques include effective and simple relaxation techniques, meditation and stress management plans.
