What is MANUAL THERAPY ?
- Hands On Treatment of Pain
for Soft Tissue & Joint Disorders -
Orthopedic Assessments & Treatment include an array of techniques mostly used by Osteopaths and Myotherapists including Remedial Massage techniques I do not practice Joint Manipulation!
TREAT THE BIG 4 - JOINTS, CONNECTIVE TISSUES, MUSCLE, NERVES
Break pain cycle, re-align pelvic & spinal deviations & reduce joint stiffness with Mobilization, Muscle Energy Techniques and Myofascial Sling Activations, rehydrate ligaments & tendons, remove myofascial adhesions, deactivate muscle spasms, reset muscle resting length, re-active muscle control, identify short Vs long muscles "not tight muscles", free Nerve impingements, release trigger points, reduce scar tissue, increase blood flow and decrease inflammation, rebalance nervous systems, reflexology, corrective exercises
Postural Alignment – chain reaction- muscle length/strength imbalances
Joint stiffness
Myofascial issues - restrictions, thickening, dehydration, compression
Corrective Exercises, Stability training, Assisted Stretching, Self Help Tips
Shoulder injuries – Carpal Tunnel
Back issues – Sciatica pain
Knee pain – Plantar Fasciitis
Whiplash
Migraines
TMJ issues
Nervous System Balancing
Scar Tissue Treatment
Tendonitis
- Specific Spot Treatments for Pain, Stiffness, loss of function & range of motion
- Pure Remedial Massage
- Sports Massage
RETURN FUNCTION TO NORMAL
STRETCH LAB
Mixed disciplines training the body through Clinical Therapy Knowledge, tweaking traditional yoga poses with myofascial train activation for core strengthening, increase joint range of motion and correct postural imbalances.
TUNE IN to TONE UP Training for more body control, true core strength and joint mobility for more sport performance.
Or Looking for SIMPLE Stretches with EXTRA TWEAKS to maximise your outcome, specific to your body.
Breath techniques to alter your PH level, blood pressure and mind status
ONE THING'S FOR SURE - once you learn how tweak a stretch & activate your myofascial slings - your recovery will be next level guarenteed!
BLISS OUT & DE-STRESS
Hawaiian pure intent free flowing massage will make you forget where you are! Entire body & scalp massage fully relaxing your mind, body & energy system. RECHARGING LIFE!
More than just a Relaxation Massage
JOINT REALIGNMENT - MUSCLE IMBALANCES
Orthopedic testing of skeletal alignment at each joint and real time corrections using Muscle Energy Techniques "MET"
Methodical assessment and corrections of the skeletal system without manipulation! Followed by assessing muscle imbalances to figure out the whole picture of your musculoskeletal relationship. Corrective exercises specific to your situation is given to maintain the body at ease - hence the name of the therapy being called Onsen.
CHRONIC NEURO-MUSCULO-SKELETAL PAIN
Orthopedic testing of skeletal alignment and real time corrections.
Using the spine as a template to determine which Myofascial Train and Muscle Activation is needed to re-align skeletal posture.
- Reactivates inactive muscles, reduces overloading of muscles, tendons, bursas, ligaments & joints, relieves trigger point formation and biochemical pain production.
REDUCE
- joint stiffness, functional leg length differences, thoracic rotation limitations, pelvic rotations/tilts, HEADACHES, neck & rib stiffness., knee & ankle loading.
- This includes specific techniques to be continued at home for 3weeks to continue postural corrections, neuro-muscular activation & retrain muscle memory.
VERY GENTLE, NON-INVASIVE APPROACH
Re-alignment by itself lasts 3days until muscle memory pulls it back out!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- De-activate trigger points to prevent long term peripheral & central pain sensitization
- Regain normal movement patterns and muscle strength by removing pain
- Depolarize endplate noise for muscle spasms & contractures
- Release natural Opioids to block pain transmissions
- Interrupt fibroblasting to reduce new scar tissue formation
- Increase elasticity in old scar tissue
GOOD FOR
Peripheral & Central Sensitization Pain from prolonged muscle contraction
Scar Tissue
Compartment Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel, Subacromial Impingement & Bursitis
Sinus blockages, Arthritis pain
Headaches
TMJ issues
