Deep Tissue Massage
The goal of Deep Tissue Massage is not to cause more muscle contraction, it is to release chronic and acute tension and re-educate the muscle fibres. When deep tissue is required it's a therapists patience not physical force that allows for access in to these layers. A therapist must know how to first prepare the muscle, by softening the superficial layers before moving through the deeper muscle tissue and fascia to properly manipulate the problem area.
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation
The advantage to using stainless steel instruments is their ability to break up muscular adhesions, realigning muscle fibre orientation and restoring the flow of blood and important nutrients. The tools are designed to adapt to the different body tissues with their concave and convex surfaces. This allows for even distribution of pressure and provides you with more comfort during treatment. The greatest advantage to using the tools is the detection of fibrotic tissue - the tool will reverbrate for me when I apply it across this type of tissue and allows me to receive more information about the tissue than using my hands alone.
Swedish Massage
A gentle and and relaxing form of Massage designed to increase circulation around the body including skin, muscles and joints. This promotes blood flow and exchange of nutrients, while helping the body get rid of toxins. Good for reducing physical and mental stress symptoms while promoting better sleep patterns.
Assessment Led Bowen Therapy
Assessment Led Bowen Therapy is a holistic whole body treatment. It utilises specific tests to identify, isolate and treat area's of soft tissue dysfunction. An issue within the body often creates compensation patterns that affect other area's of the body which causes pain and global dysfunction. The aim of the treatment is to address the main sites of dural attachment along the central axis of the skeleton. Releasing a sustaining muscle spasm here has a theraputic cascade effect on the rest of the body. It is suitable for all types of musculoskeletal issues, as well being effective in treating disorders including stress and anxiety, digestive or hormonal problems and more.
How it works- By using precise cross-fibre moves to activate the nerve endings around the areas of dysfunction. This creates an immediate change within the soft tissue and structure via the central nervous system. The same specific tests are applied again during treatment to confirm the change has taken place. Once symmetry has been achieved your body will undertake it's own intelligent rehabilitation. Follow up treatment confirms if the symmetry is holding or if further remedial intervention is needed.
