Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a natural therapy which combines manual ‘hands-on’ techniques with exercise and advice. We use touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage techniques to increase the mobility of joints, relieve muscular tension, enhance the blood and nerve supply to tissues, and to help a person’s own healing mechanisms.
Osteopathy works with the structure and function of the body and is based on the principle that the well-being of an individual depends on the skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues functioning smoothly together.
An osteopath works to help restore your body to a state of balance without using drugs or surgery.
Osteopathy is an holistic system of diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and is designed to provide pain relief for the body’s structural and mechanical problems.
A gentle form of treatment, osteopathy can benefit most types of aches, pains and strains in people of every age. Osteopaths often provide advice on posture and exercise to aid recovery, promote health and prevent symptoms from reoccurring.
As osteopaths, we treat many conditions, although a common myth is that most people think of us as ‘back specialists’.
Although we do see a lot of people looking for relief from back pain, don’t forget that osteopathic treatment can benefit all parts of the skeleton. It does not just target your symptoms but treats the parts of the body that have caused these symptoms.
Osteopaths assess and treat people of all types and ages: from the very elderly to youngsters, and from pregnant women to elite sports people.
Sports Massage Therapy
Massage works on the soft tissue of the body, working to release tension and stiffness, as well as stretching to relax and revitalize the body, using a range of techniques.
Sports massage is a deeper form of soft tissue mobilisation which is aimed at working deep into the muscles, to aid healing and relaxation.
Sports massage isn’t just for ‘sports people’ but is a great way to help relieve any long-term injuries or pain, such as lower back pain, and headaches. It focuses on releasing the muscles and tensions often caused by chronic bad posture and soft tissue problems.
Massage can be used for general relaxation or aimed more specifically towards problem areas.
Chiropody
General chiropody - this includes treatment for corns, callus, verrucae, infections (bacterial/ fungal), nail problems i.e. in growing, thickened, fungal, discolouration, bacterial infections.
We also look after medical complications affecting the feet- e.g. diabetes, rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, peripheral vascular disease, and all other immuno-compromised conditions which may cause foot problems.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been practiced in the Far East for thousands of years. The philosophy behind the treatment is that meridians circulate around the body, these meridians contain our energy flow or "qi". When this qi is impaired, imbalance and illness occurs.
How does it work?
With the insertion of fine needles at various points on the meridian, the energy can be moved or redirected where it is needed most. In this way the body's balance can be restored. Patients often report improvements in energy, mood and digestion, after undergoing treatment.
Reflexology
Reflexology is an ancient healing treatment based on the principles that reflexes to all parts of the body are mapped out on the feet or hands. Skilled and precise massage of these reflexes can help to return your body back to its natural balanced state by helping to promote and stimulate your own natural healing processes.
How does it work?
Reflexology helps to rebalance the body, whilst inducing deep relaxation, helping to remove the negative effects of stress as well as supporting the immune system. It is the perfect treatment to promote well-being, restoring health, boosting energy, revitalise and stimulate healing.
Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage is based on the traditional form of head massage practiced in India for over 1,000 years.
How does it work?
It involves massage of the upper back, arms, shoulders, neck, scalp and face. The treatment is performed whilst seated and fully clothed, but can be adapted to a lying down position. The rhythmic nature of the massage induces deep relaxation, and is excellent for headaches, upper back tension and as a de-stressing treatment.
Yoga
Yoga is an ancient discipline that combines postures, breathing techniques and simple meditation to assist in relaxation and healing.
What is involved in a typical session?
Depending on your needs and areas you want to work on, yoga can be dynamic to restorative; a yoga session can relax and release tension or revive and rejuvenate.
Massage Therapy
Holistic or Swedish massage is a relaxing and stimulating treatment that most people will benefit from.
Massage works on the soft tissue of the body, working to release tension and stiffness. Appropriate massage techniques such as friction, kneading, percussion and stimulating of pressure points are used, as well as stretching to relax and revitalize the body.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is treatment to restore, maintain, and make the most of a patient’s mobility, function, and well-being. Physiotherapy helps through physical rehabilitation, injury prevention, and health and fitness. Physiotherapists get you involved in your own recovery. Physiotherapists help people affected by injury, illness or disability through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice.
They are State Registered (HCPC) and Chartered (MCSP) who maintain health for people of all ages, helping patients to manage pain and prevent disease.
The profession helps to encourage development and facilitate recovery, enabling people to stay in work while helping them remain independent for as long as possible.
Physiotherapy is a science-based profession and takes a ‘whole person’ approach to health and wellbeing, which includes the patient’s general lifestyle.
At the core is the patient’s involvement in their own care, through education, awareness, empowerment, and participation in their treatment.
You can benefit from physiotherapy at any time in your life. Physiotherapy helps with back pain or sudden injury, managing long-term medical condition such as asthma, and in preparing for childbirth or a sporting event.
Physiotherapy is a degree-based healthcare profession. Physios use their knowledge and skills to improve a range of conditions associated with different systems of the body, such as:
Neurological (stroke, Parkinson’s and multiple sclerosis)
Neuromusculoskeletal (back pain, whiplash associated disorder, sports injuries, arthritis)
Cardiovascular (chronic heart disease, rehabilitation after heart attack)
Respiratory (asthma, choronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis).
LED therapy
LED (light emitting diode) light therapy is a non evasive treatment that enters the skins layers to treat a range of skin issues, including:
Eczema
Rosacea
Psoriasis
Sun damage
Mild to moderate acne
Fine lines and wrinkles
Joint pain
Wound healing
Mood lifting
Light therapy works by using the skins ability to soak up light, this penetrates the skin at varying depths to help stimulate a healing response.
Blue light affects the uppermost layer (dead skin) - aiding to kill bacteria on the surface which can help people with acne, eczema or rosacea . Can
Red light affects the epidermis (living cells) - helps cell renewal and ATP regeneration which can stimulate collagen and elastin, therefore helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Near infrared light affects the deepest layer - helps to reduce inflammation which can help speed up wound healing and reduce pigmentation.
Blue, red and near infrared work in combination with each other or separately. Light therapy doesn’t use ultraviolet light, so it doesn’t cause damage or burn the skin.
It combines well with other treatments, such as treating anxiety and depression with my acupuncture, it’s also a great add on to my face massage and Indian head massage.
Shock Wave Therapy
Radial Shockwave Therapy is an evidence-based treatment that involves passing low energy pressure waves into damaged tissues to increase blood flow and stimulate repair whilst reducing pain and allowing your body to restart its own natural healing process.
