Rolfing
Rolfing is bodywork that focuses on the connective tissue, or fascia, of the body. Fascia surrounds muscles, blood vessels, organs, and nerves, binding some structures together while permitting others to slide smoothly over each other.
Rolfing works to lengthen, stretch, and soften this tissue to restore postural balance, ease of movement, and a feeling of being more at home in your own body.
Lymph Drainage (Vodder's)
A gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart. Generally, it affects the nervous system, smooth muscles, fluid movement in the connective tissue and may have an effect on the immune system. Typically used to reduce swelling and congestion, improve immunity, post-surgical outcomes. Beneficial for pregnant mums.
Visceral Manipulation
"Viscera" relates to the internal organs of the body, such as the liver, kidneys and intestines. Visceral Manipulation is a gentle manual therapy that aids your body's ability to release restrictions and unhealthy compensations that cause pain and dysfunction. Adjunct therapy used by our Advanced Rolf Practitioner and Assistant Visceral Manipulation Instructor.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy relieves pain and tension in the body by the placement of hands on different points of the skull in order to re-establish the original flow of fluid within the cranium as well as reduce any resistance in the flow.
It is used in our clinic extensively by Dr Serene Ng for head, neck and jaw issues. Especially useful where non-force techniques are indicated or to support dental work.
Advanced craniosacral therapy includes an appreciation of emotional work for the physical body to heal.
Feldenkrais Method
The essence of Feldenkrais is to slow down a movement to reconnect body consciousness with awareness to give the brain time to explore neuromuscular pathways. All exercises and hands-on techniques are deliberately designed to develop awareness through body movement. The Feldenkrais Method works directly with your nervous system to improve your ability to move. It stimulates the brain and suggests to the body new ways of moving.
