Total Balance. Your Body in Balance - Naturally

Here are some of the therapies you can enjoy at Total Balance in Teesdale

Bowen Technique
The Bowen Technique is a gentle, non-invasive, truly holistic therapy. A Bowen Practitioner will stimulate the body to heal itself by applying a series of gentle, rolling moves at key points on the body, whilst you relax on the treatment couch in quiet surroundings. This therapy will not interfere with conventional medical treatment, rather will complement it. I have used Bowen to help the body relax after surgery, sprains and bone fractures.
Bowen releases energy blockages in the body which are causing pain or imbalances and a body usually responds within four days of treatment. The number of treatments you will need depends on your history, lifestyle and how long you have held the pattern of imbalance. It works faster than any physical therapy I know!

Health Kinesiology
An all-round boost to your general well-being by helping your body eliminate those recurrent stresses in your life. Whether you are struggling with physical symptoms such as digestive problems; emotional challenges or you are just plain stressed-out, all these body responses are a signal that your body is out of balance.
Using the skilled art of muscle-testing to identify the underlying cause of your body's imbalances and a series of gentle methods of releasing the energy stresses, most clients find this an intriguing and relaxing process.
This therapy works well as a remote therapy should you be out of travelling distance from Teesdale.
What will you choose to work on? I would be happy to help.

Reflexology
A soothing foot soak and gentle foot massage start off the relaxing effects of this treatment where the organs and other areas of the body are represented in miniature by reflex points on the feet. Gentle stimulation of these points improves energy flow in the body and enhances our ability for self-healing. Relaxation is excellent for the prevention of ill-health and the relief of stress-related conditions.

  Total Balance Therapy (Oriental Body Balance)
  
  This therapy is a multi-disciplinary Complementary Therapy for the diagnosis and treatment of imbalances in the integrated systems of the body. Combining the best of Eastern and Western theories and therapies in a truly holistic way, the results are usually pain reduction and stress-relief combined with an overall improvement in well-being. I have is also used this in the workplace to combat absenteeism through ill-health.
  
  Muscle testing, orthopaedic testing, hara diagnosis and tongue and pulse assessment are used to ask your body what the imbalances are and what they mean within your system. Your body is asked many questions regarding its performance and any imbalances are anchored into your system in order that your body truly acknowledges what is the root cause of the problem.
  
  Therapies used within this session can be:
  
  • Acupressure
  • Anmo Fu
  • Cranial Sacral Rebalancing
  • Cupping
  • Lymphatic Stimulation
  • Qi Gong Therapy
  • Tui Na Massage
  • Positional Release Therapy
  
  
  Depending on the findings, your treatment will be tailored to what your body needs on the day in order to re-establish correct structure and neurological pathways. The aim is to have you rebalanced as quickly as possible.
