Craniosacral Therapy has been described by a patient as " a great DEFRAG". That's pretty accurate, as the mind "Zones" out into a deep space of realignment of mind, body and soul. Another said;" all young people should have this Therapy....they would never bother with drugs again."

Aquatic Therapy..... Muscles melting as if dripping from the bones, being supported floating in warm water by the Therapist, the body gently stretched in a lazy dolphin dance, I apply a nose clip to serenely enter the water. A deepening sense of awe as the land of gravity recedes. Such ecstatic joy, peace and Connectedness to the Divine.......

Remedial Massage.... is the signature Therapy of Aquadulgent Massage Centre. Where the Therapist has studied a wide range of subjects about the body and how it works, and an extensive range of Therapies that best target a particular body malfunction. Listens to the patient with ears, hands, eyes, feelings....and charts a course of Therapy to best serve the total health of the patient....

Your first session begins with a consultation to determine the most effective treatment for your concerns. A Structural and Kinesthetic Analysis often focuses a specific treatment, including Exercise Therapy to further enhance the session. Often a combination of Massage Modalities results in a more effective outcome. A favourite with many clients is to book 30 minutes in the Far-Infra -Red Sauna before the Massage.

As a Practitioner of Medical Aromatherapy, Symptom Analysis and Evaluation results in the blending and prescribing of Essential Oil Therapeutics for a range of common ailments.

Basic Watsu

This courses focuses on the Basics of Watsu, on how, like in Tai Chi, you can stay grounded in your stance while you float and stretch someone to the rhythm of your connected breath. You will be led through a simple but complete form. You can take this course to deepen your meditation, your relationship to water, your connection to others. There will be no pressure to 'learn' the form, but those who choose to, can follow this with the Transition Flow that expands this Basic Flow to complete a Watsu 1. As in each stage of our program, the form learned has its own organic unity and can be repeated over and over without losing its freshness or benefits for both giver and receiver. There is a total of 10 hours in a warm pool and 6 hours on land where you will explore further the different levels of your being that the Watsu is helping you access.

Kevin is teaching Watsu1, Sept 14 - 18 , 2011 with Theri Thomas in Cairns QLD

AQUATERNATIVES® foundation
Still Base-

Highly recommended as an ideal introduction to aquatic body work. Whether you are an enthusiastic novice or an experienced aquatic body-worker you will find this experience engaging,valuable and fullfilling.

AQUATERNATIVES® foundation lays the ground work by beginning with safe, productive alignment and movement of one's own body in water. Next we address the safety and alignment of the receiver while maintaining a neutral connection. Continuing the connection, we learn to move effectively from a still base. This work accelerates the body's re-alignment issues, as the art of supporting a body requires correct= efficient alignment. From this you find a better understanding of how your own body works more effectively - ref. people with chronic pain. We also learn the continuity and intergration of a therapeutic session. This course gives the learner clarity, safety, depth and creativity in their work.
