Massage Therapy
Massage specializes in the treatment of soft tissue (muscle, tendon and fascia), using a variety of techniques to improve joint and muscle functioning by loosening contracted, shortened muscles, releasing tension and reducing pain.
Physically it facilitates the circulation of blood and lymph and the removal of waste products, mobilises soft tissue, nourishes and stimulates the skin, stimulates physiological systems of the body and can be used to reduce oedema and blood pressure. It can assist in improving posture, increasing the range of motion of a joint and enhances the ability to learn and perform skilled movements.

Reflexology
Reflexology is a science that uses the thumb and fingers to press on reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body. Pressing on these reflex areas improves nerve and blood supply to the glands and organs, relieves stress and tension and helps the body achieve homeostasis. It is strongly associated with Chinese acupressure and used primarily for the treatment of internal conditions.
For the Treatment of
✓ Diabetes
✓ Asthma
✓ Hypertension
✓ Plantar Fasciitis
✓ Urinary and Abdominal Complaints
✓ Any systemic condition
Reiki
Reiki is a method of vibrational (energy) therapy that acts primarily by altering a person’s electromagnetic field, known as an aura, producing electrical and chemical results which impact both physical and psychological states. Factors such as stress, trauma, negative thoughts and an unhealthy lifestyle disrupt this optimal flow of energy resulting in a block or distortion within the aura, leading to physical or psychological dis-ease.
A Reiki therapist is trained to rebalance this vital flow of energy within the body and stabilise the energy field of the individual.Once this optimal flow of energy is achieved, a person can expect an overall improvement in their health and wellbeing, be more relaxed and at peace with themselves and others, and be able to cope more easily with life’s demands.
For the Treatment of
✓ Emotional Stress & Anxiety
✓ Psychosomatic imbalances
✓ Many other conditions
Psychosomatic Therapy
Psychosomatic Therapy looks at the relationship between what you think and your physical well-being, allowing you to address and develop strategies to deal with psychological based issues that affect your health.
Ideal for the Treatment of
• Pain Management
• Diet, exercise and weight issues
• Emotional & Mental stress
