Cranial Sacral Therapy:



• CST was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics.
  
  CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. The craniosacral therapist uses a light touch of the hands to palpate or ‘listen’ to the body’s tissues and fluids. Differences in their motion and quality can show where there are areas of stagnation and restriction through injury or stress. The intention of the craniosacral therapist is to listen to the information conveyed by the client through their body to support the body’s own ability to self-heal. The circumstances of one’s life including emotional support available to us at the time of any traumatic event have a strong impact on recovery. These shocks are often held in the tissues of the upper back and neck as well as in other areas. This is quite a common occurrence after whiplash and other physical shocks to the body. Treatment helps to resolve headaches, migranes and other physical problems by allowing release of the shock and supporting the tissues and fluids to find a new balance which allows them to be as fully healthy and functioning as possible.
  
  

  Massage

  
  
• For simple relaxation or the treatment of musculoskeletal problems, sports injuries, work-related muscle tightness & tension. Massage Therapy treats primarily soft tissue injuries by hands-on-massage and it is often an effective approach in pain and injury management and in reducing pain, anxiety and stress. It incorporates a range of techniques, including deep tissue massage and stretching and can help to break down the build up of tension in the body, improve the suppleness & flexibility of muscles and joints, leading to enhanced sports performance and promote relaxation.
  Great for sports people: such as marathon runners, athletes, personal trainers, boxers, swimmers, yoga instructors, rugby players, as well as gym users etc.
  
  Also great for non-sports people: any occupations that require you to be in static positions for long periods of time and as a result have a build up of tension in the body, such as those with desk-bound work, drivers, therapists, doctors. It is also beneficial to those with jobs requiring heavy manual labour or one-sided use of the body, such as builders, movers, gardeners, mechanics etc.
  
  

  Bowen Therapy:

  
  
• Bowen Therapy was developed by Tom Bowen in Geelong, Australia in the early 1960’s. It was popularized by students of Tom in the eighties, and training in this technique became readily available for the first time in 1986. Since then it has been taught extensively throughout the world. The therapy has achieved a high status in natural therapies where it is accepted along with other modalities displaying a much longer and established history, which indicates that there is something special about this therapy.
  
  The Bowen therapy moves are a form of gentle but precise soft tissue manipulation. These moves are focused on crucial junctions of muscle, ligament or tendon; nerve pathways; blood and lymph circulation. Blockages are freed; reconnections are made. The precise location of the Bowen moves correlate markedly with much of the latest research into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) meridian systems, acu-points and myofascial trigger point theories. Bowen therapy naturally brings about the best rate of healing based on the individual’s own body resources and their level of injury.
  Bowen is a gentle therapy that does not require deep pressure, although the pressure is varied for each client. Most people usually become very relaxed right away, and even fall asleep during the treatment. Rapid results are common. Most injuries and pain respond in 3 or 4 sessions, but there is no limit to the number of treatments a client can receive. ‘Top up’ treatments are of great benefit to help keep the body in a state of optimal balance and to prevent re-injury. Clients usually experience a deep and long lasting relief, even from long standing injury or pain. The therapist does the minimum work needed to bring about a healing response in the body. Clients often report that they have received faster results than other therapies, especially on acute injuries.
  
  Bowen Therapy is appropriate to use on everyone – babies, pregnant women, the elderly, and those with long term pain.
