Remedial Massage
Remedial Massage is used to treat various muscular injuries or tension, maintain muscle elasticity and prevent injury. Massage techniques can be used to lengthen muscles and treat specific areas of tension to relieve spasm and referred pain. Myofascial Release, Cross Fibre Release, Lymphatic Massage and Acupressure techniques can also be incorporated.
Sports Massage
Techniques are used to maintain optimal physical conditioning, including muscle strength and lengthening. Pre and post-event treatments can help you achieve maximum results.
Pohaku Hawaiian Stone Therapy
Heated stones are placed on and under the body and warm oiled stones are used to massage the muscles. As the heat penetrates the tight muscles all tension is released. This is one of the most popular treatments in spas and resorts throughout the world.
Kahuna Massage
Based on the ancient lomi lomi it's a whole body massage like no other. It will relax, revitalise, and revive you. Kahuna massage will relieve stress and fatigue, reconnect you to your physical self, and revive circulation throughout the body. Kahuna involves long, deep pressure strokes and movements rather than pointed, isolated pressure as in other forms of massage. It is suitable for all ages, and people in all states of health.
Cupping
Cupping is performed by introducing heat into a glass cup and placing it immediately on the skin. The vacuum created produces a suction effect that increases blood circulation to the local area, relaxes muscle tissue and releases pain and tension.
Infant Massage Classes
The benefits of infant massage are extensive for both parents and baby, physically and psychologically. It creates bonding, attachment & closeness for both fathers and mothers and means that fathers have an important role from the beginning. Parents have increased confidence when handling their baby and are empowered to help to decrease colic, reflux, teething and aid elimination and myelination of the nerves.
Personal Training
Sharon has two main areas of focus in this capacity, back pain management and optimal health.
Programs are specifically tailored with a focus to improving and maintaining back and pelvic floor conditioning. Training sessions mainly utilise body weight, resistance bands and ball work for optimal muscle control rather than heavy weights work.
Optimal health is a goal which needs to include exercise, nutrition and the right frame of mind. Healthy snacking and organic supplementation are available. There is also a lending library of books and CDs for continuing education to help everyone achieve Optimal Health.
Sessions can be held at a location of your choice, your home, park, etc.
