Patricia Lovell has been a therapist in the Toronto area since 1988, establishing the Toronto Wellbeing Clinic at its present location in 1997. She is joined there by qualified multi-skilled practitioners, able to guide you to the correct treatment approach depending on your present condition.

Patricia is an accredited trainer and assessor, trained in many styles of therapy as well as teaching and writing professionally accredited courses for ten years in Therapeutic and Remedial Massge, Trigger Point and Myofascial Release.

More recently Patricia has developed the technique Pain Source Release - a simple, gentle, hands on method to alleviate and uncoil the sources of pain, restoring harmony to affected tissues.


CHOICE OF TREATMENTS INCLUDE:-

THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE - You may have heard referred to as Swedish Massage. This incorporates massage techniques to relax and sooth general aches and pains.

Therapeutic massage is always available in the treatments outlined below. These fall under the general category of Remedial Therapies, and so to explain the different modalities (therapies):

REMEDIAL MASSAGE - Remedial massage seeks to remedy the cause creating muscle or tissue pain and dysfunction. Specific soft tissue techniques are used to promote health muscle function. These include structural and postural corrections.

SPORTS MASSAGE – Focus is on treatment of sports related injuries, pre-event and post-event massage. In addition, prevention and rehabilitation advice will be offered.

TRIGGER POINT – A trigger point is a hyper-irritable focus point located within the muscle. Once it is found by the therapist and pressed upon, it can “trigger” a pain referral pattern. Reproducing the pain, deactivating the “trigger” helps to alleviate chronic muscular pain and stiffness.

MYOFASCIAL RELEASE – Fascia is specialized connective tissue. One could call it the body’s internal wrapping system, as it surrounds every structure within the body. Restriction in the fascia can affect not only the posture, but also the mobility of the entire body. Release of the fascia helps to restore mobility, encouraging balanced, structural integration.

DEEP TISSUE THERAPY – IT IS NOT JUST PRESSING HARDER! Deep tissue utilizes specific techniques to work deeply into the tissue especially around ligaments, muscle belly and attachment of tendons to the bone.

CORRECTIVE EXERCISE – An integral part of the treatments listed above is EXERCISE. Exercise to stretch shortened muscles, strengthen weakened muscles and improve range of movement of each joint.

LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE – Gentle techniques to move the lymph fluid, stimulate the immune system as well as promote energy.

CRANIOSACRAL – This is a treatment that can effect profound physical and emotional change. Craniosacral therapy uses light touch to improve function of the central nervous system to eliminate the negative effects of stress, strengthen resistance to disease and enhance overall health.

PAIN SOURCE RELEASE (PSR) – Patricia Lovell has developed PSR techniques. In a PSR treatment Patricia uses a subtle tracking method to locate and treat sources of pain. This is suitable for both acute and chronic conditions.

SAMVAHAN HEALING/VIBRATIONAL MASSAGE – Samvahan is an ancient technique that is light and soothing yet reaches deeply into the body causing profound healing.

VOICE DIALOGUE/COUNSELLING – This is a method for entering into direct communication with a person’s inner community - “Your Voices”. It is a remarkable self-help and transformation tool which can be utilized simply and effectively.

PREGNANCY MASSAGE – Supports the expectant mother through the many physical changes of pregnancy.
