Bodywork

We all live, move and breathe differently. This means that many of us find, at some point in our lives, that we suffer with aches, pains or restrictions in our tissues. Bodywork aims to release tension, strengthen weak muscles and support the individual back to natural fluidity and health.

We will discuss your symptoms and how they affect you. This may include a mix of pain, stress, stiffness, muscle tension patterns, postural/functional difficulties or emotional distress.

Using a sensitivity of touch that comes from extensive training and experience, your therapist will use a series of hands-on techniques to ease and realign the soft tissues. The Bodywork practitioner aims to encourage awareness, natural alignment and movement by releasing/strengthening the soft tissues in the body. This process involves your input and feedback.

You may be looking for some relaxation, to ease chronic back pain or learn new ways to treat and reduce sports injuries. You may simply want to take some time-out for you and enjoy a soothing treatment from an experienced practitioner. Bodywork enhances your ability to move through your
daily life with more ease.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN A SESSION?

Each session lasts approximately one hour. At your first appointment, a detailed medical history will be taken to enable the practitioner to tailor the treatments to your needs. It may be necessary for your practitioner to assess your posture/movements/breathing depending upon the nature of your complaint.

In close communication with you, your practitioner will devise a treatment plan, which may include myofascial release, massage, active/passive movements, gentle manipulations, stretching and breathwork.

You will be discreetly covered with towels and your comfort will be the priority throughout the session.
