What we treat...The centres focus can broadly be split into several areas - musculo skeletal therapy; general health; weight control, anti-ageing & vitality; women's health and children's health.We offer a range of therapies through out team of 7 practitioners. Different therapies are often integrated to meet individual health needs. Muskulo-skeletal  With massage therapy, Bowen therapy, craniosacral therapy, 2 acupuncturists and a physiotherapist, we help many people with conditions ranging from acute or chronic back and neck pain, frozen shoulder syndrome, tennis elbows, sports injuries, facial paralysis (Bells palsy), neuralgia, muscular aches and pains, postural & tension headaches, general stiffness, post surgical (hip/back/knee) rehabilitation. We also offer personalised exercise programs focusing on core stability which addresses the muscle weakness which so often leads to recurring back and neck pain.  General Health  The health model used at the centre has broad application and can be of assistance for almost any complaint. In many cases the centre can provide all of the care required for some conditions. In other cases the centre can provide supportive care to existing medical treatment. Following is a sample list of conditions that clients typically find we can help:
Women's Health  All of our therapists have a role in women's health, however we are fortunate to have Jenny who specialises in women's health from the perspective of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture. Some aspects of women's health which we routinely help are:
Weight control, Anti-ageing & Vitality  Our weight control programme is focussed on resetting the body's metabolism to function as it was intended. This is achieved with a combination of everyday foods to deliver the correct balance of protein, healthy fats and the right type of carbohydrates.. Supplementation is used where necessary to correct imbalances in the body.
It is typical of a successful weight loss programme to find that abdominal bloating is gone, energy is improved, mental clarity has returned, cholesterol and blood pressure improve or normalise, and hormonal imbalances often improve or disappear. This is because many of the changes in the body that lead to being overweight trigger or aggravate these conditions. Recent research reveals that obesity leads to a 58% increased risk of cancer. Many popular dietary regimes commonly used today tend to lead to the loss of muscle mass. This results in less muscle available to burn fat when exercising leading to rapid weight gain when the wrong foods are eaten. Evidence indicates that preserving the bodies lean body mass (your weight less fat) is the most important biological marker of ageing i.e. your body ages faster if you lose muscle. We use Bio-impedance analysis to accurately measure and track your lean body mass. We are pleased to be able to offer personalised exercise programs inconjunction with an individual program. Effective weight control requires an individual programme targeting specific nutritional needs. Disclaimer We are unable to give a professional opinion via email or telephone. While we are happy to answer general enquiries by telephone, an appointment is necessary to deal with specific health concerns.
