Whole Body Wellness

It is impossible to separate the mind from the body. Your mental, physical and spiritual systems are connected; when we work on one element we are in fact working on and affecting the whole.

Our thoughts, our beliefs, our behaviours, the way we hold our selves and the way we move, are usually so deeply a part of our subconscious we are often not even aware of them or how they may be affecting our health and wellness. 

Remedial Massage offers so many proven benefits, whether it's timeout from a busy life, relief from muscle tension or to enhance your sporting performance. Remedial massage can be beneficial for the relief of symptoms associated with frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, tension headaches, migraines, stress, anxiety, and depression. Also chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia, ankylosing spondylitis or relief from muscle tension associated with scoliosis. I work collaboratively with my clients to create a program of massage therapy treatments that specifically meets your goals. Sometimes this can be a one-off massage treat, or it may be a part of a long term general wellness program.

Qigong (Chi-gong) is a practice using gentle exercises and breathwork to enhance and promote the flow of energy or Qi in the body. Practiced for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine, Qigong is fast becoming increasingly popular for its overall health and wellness benefits and because everyone can do it.  Scientific studies have linked the benefits of Qigong to reduced stress, improved sleep, regulation of blood pressure and reduced anxiety. Qigong benefits the mind the body and the spirit in a regular practice. 

McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release is a proven, gentle and highly effective technique for the release of scar tissue and muscle adhesions. Scar tissue can inhibit our recovery and rehabilitation and can result in long term muscle and movement dysfunction. If you experience tension, numbness, tingling, altered sensation, pulling or pain around an injury site, it may be due to scar tissue. MSTR® can also improve the look and feel of unsightly scars.
