DYNAMIC BODY THERAPY CLINIC
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles into specific points of the body to access energy pathways in the body. Careful selection of points enables us to return balance to the body, relieving symptoms, preventing future disease and treating the root cause of the problem whether it be emotional, physical or diet related. We use sterile, single use, ultra fine Japanese needles that rarely cause any discomfort at all, in fact most patients comment that it is a very pleasant and relaxing experience.
Herbal Chinese Medicine
Chinese herbal medicine is the use of ancient formulas, some used for over 3,000 years that are modified and tailored to individual needs. Herbs may be administered in raw form (then boiled at home), powdered or pill form depending on convenience requirements for travelling, busy lifestyle etc.
Cupping
Cupping is another therapy used that is the application of suctioned glass cups to the skin that serve to treat cold/flu and aching muscles or old injuries very well.

Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic drainage is a gentle technique used to promote the flow of lymph throughout the body. The gentle pulsing techniques of lymphatic drainage can be use to move the lymph through the vessels towards the lymph nodes and ultimately back into the blood circulation.
Lymphatic drainage relieves fluid congestion, oedema and toxic build up eg. swollen legs or ankles, puffy eyes, fluid retention due to PMS
promotes healing of wounds, fractures, torn ligaments, sprains and strains
helps clear recurring infections such as colds and flu
can improve conditions such as sinusitis, hay fever, rheumatoid arthritis
can reduce stress, anxiety and tension
helps reduce cellulite and the appearance of stretch marks
pre and post operative cases, boosts the immune system and can speed up recovery from surgery
Massage - Deep Tissue/ Relaxation/ Remedial
Remedial therapy aims to treat the primary cause of one's pain and dysfunction and assist the body's natural healing process through the use of various soft tissue techniques including:
deep tissue and sports massage
trigger point therapy
myofascial release
joint mobilisation
stretching
exercise prescription
Postural assessment and orthopaedic testing may be used to help gain insight into the possible causes of one's condition. In addition, complimentary therapies such as lymphatic drainage, cupping and touch for health may be used to provide a holistic approach to treatment encompassing the mind, body and spirit connection.
Naturopathy
Naturopathy endeavours to aid and assist the alleviation of disease and illness by harnessing the body’s own natural healing resources. To enable this to happen a naturopath will strive to diagnose and treat the underlying cause of the disease as well as the presenting symptoms. Treatment then requires a holistic approach involving investigations and understanding of the overall health of the individual. The therapeutic strategy includes remedies that stimulate and aid the body’s resources in recovery as well as preventing or reducing the likelihood of occurrence. Naturopathic prescriptions include herbal tinctures, “practitioner only” nutritional supplements and herbal products along with basic diet and lifestyle counselling.
It is our belief that health is more than just the absence of disease; health is when all aspects of an individuals mental/emotional, biochemical and physical being are in balance, as well as recognizing the limitations of natural medicine and referring to orthodox treatment when appropriate.
Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a holistic based treatment using the hands to correct tissue & joint abnormalities. It is aimed at restoring physical & mental wellbeing and thereby making it easier for the body to use its own recuperative powers to heal itself. The treatment goal is to improve circulation, reduce muscle spasm, improve flexibility, maintain nerve supply & restore muscle/joint harmony.
How does osteopathy work?
Osteopaths work with their hands using a wide variety of treatment techniques such as:
Massage and stretching techniques
Articulation techniques, in which joints are mobilised by being passively taken through their range of motion
Muscle Energy techniques, in which contracted muscles are released by alternately being stretched and made to work against resistance.
Positional Release Techniques, which achieve release of restriction by placing the affected joint or muscle in a position of comfort, while applying a stretching release to the opposing muscles.
Functional techniques, which involve gentle mobilisation of joints in a way which "nudges" barriers to normal movement until a way is found through the restriction
Manipulation, which may be used where it is appropriate and safe to do so, though it is not the mainstay of most Osteopathic treatments. Osteopathic manipulations are carried out using minimum force levels in order to maximise safety and minimise patient discomfort
Many Osteopaths also use what is known as cranial technique, which is a gentle release technique particularly, suited to young children and the physically frail.
Visceral techniques are used in the management of conditions affecting internal organs. These involve gentle and rhythmical stretching of the visceral areas
Osteopathic treatments are tailored to the requirements of the individual patient, and techniques are selected which are appropriate to the patient's needs
