TREATMENTS AVAILABLE

REMEDIAL MASSAGE

Remedial Massage incorporates several techniques that assist in healing, relieving pain and improving the health of our body. Sensitive points in our muscles often refer pain to other parts of our body. For instance, headaches may originate from strained muscles in our neck. Remedial massage helps to stimulate blood flow in these areas, reducing pain, swelling and speeding up the body’s natural healing process. Remedial Massage may be used to treat:

• Back and neck pain
• Headaches and migraines
• Joint pain/arthritis
• Sciatica
• Work and sports related injuries

SPORTS MASSAGE

Sports Massage is Massage and Stretching techniques applied to our muscles and connective tissues of our body. It is designed to enhance physical performance, alleviate stress, tension and muscle soreness. Sports Massage promotes flexibility by increasing our range of movements promoting faster recovery from injuries. It may be performed before, during or after physical activities. Sports massage may also assist in treating minor injuries and lesions that occur as a result of overexertion or overuse.

TRADITIONAL CUPPING THERAPY

Traditional Cupping Therapy is a traditional Chinese modality that uses cups placed on the skin to draw up underlying tissues. The cup is rolled up the skin and left in place for 5 to 15 minutes. This causes our body to release toxins, activate the lymphatic system, clear blockages and increase blood flow. It is commonly used for:

• Lower back problems
• Muscular and joint pain
• Sciatica
• Stiff shoulders
• Common cold and influenza
• Bronchial asthma
• Skin complaints
• Premenstrual pain

DRY NEEDLING

Dry Needling is used for the treatment of muscle pain and dysfunction. It involves introducing fine, sterile acupuncture needles into “trigger points” (knots) of muscles. Dry Needling alleviates the symptoms of trigger points and is commonly used for the treatment of:

• Neck pain, headaches and migraines
• Hamstring and lower back problems
• Stress and muscular tightness
• Sporting injuries
• Jaw pain / TMJ

DEEP TISSUE

Deep Tissue Massage uses slow, deep and intense massage strokes across the grain of our muscle. Greater pressure is applied to deeper layers of our muscle than that of relaxation massage. It is beneficial for healing physical injuries, joint restrictions and structural misalignment.

RELAXATION MASSAGE

Relaxation Massage is designed to reduced stress and rebalances our vital body energy. It increases blood flow by easing muscular and psychological tension giving you a chance to relax and de-stress.

PREGNANCY MASSAGE

Pregnancy is a very special time in a woman’s life which creates significant physiological, structural and psychological changes. Using gentle, appropriate techniques massage may relieve common discomforts associated with pregnancy such as:

• Back aches
• Cramps

• Depression and anxiety

Peter Kotsiras is an accredited pregnancy massage therapist.
