Therapies and treatment

• Shiatsu - With its roots in Japan, developed from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shiatsu uses relaxed body weight, applied principally with the hands (finger and palm pressure), to stimulate the self-healing mechanisms of the body. Additionally treating a wide range of specific health issues, it is deeply relaxing and can enhance one's overall health and sense of well-being. Shiatsu was recognizes as a healing system, by the Japanese Government, in the 1950's where it is used to treat a broad spectrum of ailments that range from sports injuries to digestive disorders and anxiety.


• Sports Injury treatment –We use massage, Shiatsu, Sotai (Post Isometric Relaxation and Reciprocal Inhibition) and Seitai (Hip clearance) in our sports injury treatment.


• Stress Management - Our approach to stress management is holistic in nature and we, simultaneously, treat cause and effect. This can lead to a quicker response where stress levels are lowered, the immune system can recover to normal levels, control over your life can be regained and relearn how to enjoy it.


• Qigong - Qigong (chi kung, or chi gung) translates, literally, as "Life Energy Cultivation". It is a practice of aligning breath, movement, focus,and awareness for exercise, healing, and meditation.



Using holistic methods and treatment, our aim is to treat both cause and effect in order to bring relief and wellbeing to our clients.
