ADVANCED CLINICAL MASSAGE
Advanced Clinical Massage is a combination of various Massage techniques used to help reduce pain and increase range of movement. Specific modalities are used such as osteopathic articulation and mobilisation, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, medical acupunture, structural energy release, reflexology as well as deep tissue massage.
MEDICAL ACUPUNCTURE/DRY NEEDLING
Medical Acupuncture involves the insertion of fine filament needles to stimulate the healing process of soft tissues (muscle “trigger points”, fascia, tendons and ligaments, etc.). The result of medical acupuncture is pain relief and restoration of homeostasis and healthy physiology.
RELAXING MASSAGE (SWEDISH/AMA STYLES)
A relaxing whole body treatment with benefits that include shortened recovery time for muscular strain, increased circulation without increased heart load, stretching of ligaments and tendons, skin stimulation and soothing of the nervous system.
REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology is a complementary therapy that works on the feet or hands to help heal the whole body. It can be used to restore and maintain the body’s natural balance and flow of energy. It is truly ‘complementary’ and is especially good for stress-related problems.
HOT STONE MASSAGE
Hot stone massage is a type of massage therapy that involves the use of smooth, heated stones. Combined with Swedish massage the hot stones are placed on specific points of the body and the localised heat and weight of the stones warm and relax muscles – truly theraputic.
INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE
Indian head massage, also known as champissage, focuses on massaging acupressure points along the head, neck, and shoulders, often using circular massage strokes to improve hair and scalp condition. It originates from an Indian alternative medicine system called Ayurveda, (translated as the ‘science of life’), whereby it is believed that the mind and body are intricately connected and thus can influence one another.
