TREATMENTS
STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION
Structural Integration restores natural physical balance and coordination, enhancing flexibility and strength. Each session includes light to deep myofascial massage, which alongside active client participation, unwinds restricted connective tissue. This frees up the route to stronger and more connected core body movement. A series of exercises are used to support the client in meeting their goals, whether learning appropriate muscle recruitment or focusing on the postural alignment needs of everyday function. Over time bodily shifts are sustained through awareness and practice. I offer the ten series programme as well as bespoke sessions in blocks.
The benefits include:
-
Increased awareness of posture and breathing
-
Reduced pain and tension
-
Improved understanding of core connections
-
Enhanced flexibility, balance and coordination
-
A boost to the immune system
Craniosacral therapy is a gentle but potent, non-invasive, hands on treatment. Stress, injury, disease and trauma can compromise the body’s natural energetic levels.
The benefits include:
• Healing, alleviating physical and emotional pain from chronic illnesses, injuries or trauma.
• Relieves connective tissue & bone restrictions leading to improved body function & mobility.
• Improved function of the Autonomic Nervous System enabling the body to respond effectively to stress.
• Boost the Immune System.
• Increases energy flow, relaxation and revitalisation.
• Other symptoms that can be supported are neck and back pain, anxiety, depression, grief, allergies, migraines, headaches, TMJ dysfunction, chronic fatigue, sinusitis, tinnitus, vertigo, seizure disorders, hormonal imbalances, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, pregnancy and birth trauma.
Plus many other symptoms.

DISTANT CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
MYOFASCIAL MASSAGE
Myofascial Massage is a satisfying and relaxing therapeutic massage which aims to balance and realign the fascial network in the body. It focuses on relieving tension in localised areas and reconnecting them to the whole body. During massage, advanced bodywork methods such as neuromuscular technique (NMT) and muscle energy technique (MET) are used to free up adhered connective tissue, reduce inflammation and relieve pain.
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a light touch massage that stimulates the lymphatic system and improves the transportation of nutrients and oxygen to the body’s tissues while eliminating excessive fluids and waste products.
The benefits include:
-
A boost to the immune system and energy levels
-
Relaxation
-
Relieved fluid congestion
-
Enhanced healing pre and post surgery
MATRIX RHYTHM THERAPY
Inspired by the classical vibration massage method used in sports rehabilitation, Matrix Rhythm Therapy encourages cellular regeneration with the application of the Matrixmobil® device.
The Matrixmobil® device produces pulsations which copy the body’s natural rhythm by gently and harmoniously inducing cells to reactivate, regenerate and readapt to the biochemical and physiological bodily processes. It is particularly effective combined with Structural Integration to assist the body’s healing potential to restore and repair.
The benefits include:
-
A reduction in inflammation
-
Reduced muscle and joint tension and improved mobility
-
Reduction in acute and chronic pain
-
Regular sessions can improve fascial and muscle elasticity and speed up muscle recovery after exercise or injury
GYROTONIC® & GYROKINESIS®
The GYROTONIC method is a dynamic exercise system which enables users to stretch and strengthen the musculoskeletal system while stimulating the cardiovascular and nervous systems. GYROTONIC equipment provides the client with safe and sustained resistance to maintain a balanced alignment throughout the body while circular, spiraling and undulating movements are used to free up the spine while exercising. The exercises are adapted to the individual’s needs, from a slow pace to a faster rhythmic aerobic exercise movements.
The benefits include:
-
Awareness of healthy posture and breathing
-
Restoration of balance and coordination
-
Greater flexibility and core strength
-
Toned and lengthened muscles
-
Boost to energy levels and sense of wellbeing
