Services

Remedial massage is a broad general heading given to many different styles and treatment procedures. Remedial massage uses the same basic Swedish movements with the intention of releasing areas of muscular restriction and tension. The overall goal of Remedial massage is to restore active range of motion and to reduce the effects of pain for the client. The style of massage is quick and vigorous with deep penetrating stroke work.

Myofascial Release refers to the physical technique for stretching the fascia and releasing adhesions between fascia and muscles, with the goal of eliminating pain and increasing range of motion. Myofascial release usually involves applying shearing compression or tension in various directions or by skin rolling.

Trigger point therapy is a manual technique whose purpose is to stop the chronic pain and muscular tension associate with Trigger points (TrPs). For individuals who have suffered ongoing chronic pain and the causes of the problem is still unknown, or have experienced the frustration of having multiple therapist/specialist failing to address the problem, TrP therapy is often the solution. This therapy is not a massage session but rather a very specific treatment involving physical assessment, sometimes direct sustained pressure on the pain point, Positional release technique, dynamic movement of the effected muscles or limbs whilst holding the TrP and Myofascial unwind of muscular restrictions. The niceties of massage are dispensed here and the therapist focuses directly on releasing multiple chronic pain points to elievate pain.

Testimonials

Condition: chronic Sciatica.

“For years I have had problems walking and have tried Osteopaths, Physiotherapists, Chiropractors and Acupuncturists to no effect… The first treatment of 90 minutes produced amazing results. I could walk without pain and go up and down stairs more readily than I have done in years…. There are two things that I have appreciated about David’s treatments. Firstly it works and secondly it has lasted so well.”
Stanis Smith

Condition: restricted breathing, abdominal and diaphragmatic tension.

“Until undergoing Myofascial Release, I never considered that my body might have stored some of those traumatic experiences in its tissues…The difference in my whole body physically, emotionally, psychologically was verging on the Miraculous. This seems to me to be arguably one of the most sophisticated, safe, efficient and effective forms of physical therapy out there. ”

“When I first came to see David, I was wracked with neck and shoulder pain; to the point where I could barely move my head…I was in Agony… After two treatments, the relief was astounding! The pain I had carried with me for weeks was gone…I would actively urge anyone who is in pain, has a chronic problem area, or just wants a feeling of well being, to make an appointment to see David. This is a treatment that works, not just as a quick fix, but in the long term.”
Mike Norman
