Pain or restricted
movement can drastically reduce our quality of life. Old injuries,
accidents, repetitive movements and tension from everyday stresses can
readily take up permanent residence in our bodies.
Massage can help.
Massage can relieve pain, restore range of movement
and help heal certain conditions. By relieving stress it can energise
us and renew our vigour.
All
patients
are formally assessed on their first visit in relation to medical
history and known issues.
Where massage is deemed appropriate for
the individual, as practised at this Clinic it is part
of an integrated approach to a person's treatment and wellbeing. It is
an effective
therapy for releasing restriction in muscles and joints, and is very
beneficial in draining excess fluid from the tissues resulting from
such events as injury, surgery or pregnancy amongst others. At Centre
of Balance massage is
commonly used in conjunction with other medical treatments, and clients
are often referred here by allied health professionals and local
doctors for treatment .
At the clinic we
draw on knowledge of Remedial, Lymphatic
Drainage and other modes to tailor therapy to the
individual's unique physical and emotional context. Many first time
patients are surprised at how powerful a treatment massage can be while
others have made massage an
indespensable part of their monthly routines, appreciating the profound
benefits it can bring to one's general well-being.
Many, but not all, private health funds
