My intention is to provide an easy, practical, and holistic treatment, at an affordable rate. You will derive maximum benefit from regular visits to create an ongoing connected relationship to your body. This will help fine-tune you to navigate busy life, whilst providing a foundation for a powerful wellness practice.
The basis of the treatment I offer is trigger point massage therapy. I have over 19 years of experience with this technique.
Trigger points are painful knots in the muscle tissue which often form in characteristic areas on the body due to overuse or overloading of the muscle. They are remarkably common and can develop in any of the 200 pairs of muscles in our bodies, which gives them a wide territory for causing pain and discomfort.
Many health problems are linked to muscle tightness, so this treatment has many effective applications. Professional trigger point massage can break up muscle knots and improve blood flow to the area, delivering much-needed oxygen and nutrients to help promote healing.
My version of trigger point therapy massage is generally performed through clothing.
Working through a single layer of clothing is optimal, and I have refined my techniques over the 19 years I have worked as a massage therapist.
This style of massage is therefore great for anyone new to massage therapy. It also removes any awkwardness in dealing with towels and modesty issues which can be experienced when performing a more conventional oil-based massage.
The intention is to create a “good pain” release, although I am always happy to modify pressure to suit.
I use a comfortable massage chair when focussing on upper body work for shorter periods, or a massage table if preferred, for a more integrated full body treatment.
My treatment room is conveniently located in Lower Huntsbury, close to the shops on Centaurus Rd.
