I provide a combination of both remedial massage and physio treatment. Utilizing deep tissue techniques and my extensive knowledge, I work on specific muscles to realign joints that are out of their correct alignment by identifying which joints are impacting the painful area, as misalignment often has a domino effect. It takes several affected areas to lead to pain, and I address these issues accordingly.

There is a distinction between tight muscles and tender muscles (tight muscles don’t exhibit any immediate signs of pain, but they contribute to soreness in other areas of the body). Tender areas usually indicate excessive pressure on the muscles beyond their capacity to handle. However, when both sides of the body are equally sore, it can be a sign of good exercise or at least even loading. In my approach, I focus on releasing overactive, stronger, and tight muscles that pull nearby joints out of alignment. These muscles are usually not tender, which explains why the treatment is less painful.

In cases where there are inadequate physiological joint movements, muscles tend to fire in an incorrect sequence, or some may not engage properly at all. This can lead to issues such as improper joint movement, compression of tendons and other irregularities in the joints. By prioritizing full body realignment initially, we can achieve proper joint movement, making subsequent rehab exercises more effective and pain-free. This last step is crucial for a successful rehabilitation as in order to kill the pain your exercises must not be causing pain.

Pain serves as one type of feedback from your body when something is wrong, and my goal is to not only eliminate the pain but also significantly improve your overall well-being. Generally, a few sessions (usually ranging from 2 to 5 sessions weekly or fortnightly) are sufficient to reduce or eliminate pain for most individuals. Here are some factors that will influence the number of sessions required: The strength or weakness of your muscles and tendons, whether your condition is related to a specific sport or activities you have been actively engaged in for an extended period (such as golf or tennis for instance), and the chronicity (intensity and duration) of your pain.

Post-treatment experiences may vary based on factors such as your pre-existing mobility, the intensity and duration of your pain. Some common sensations following the session may include:

Feeling lightheaded due to the flushing out of toxins from tight muscles (which tend to have poorer blood perfusion, resulting in a build-up of toxins).

May be a momentary change in your balance as repositioning several joints alters your body's centre of mass and joints movement.

Slight discomfort or niggles in different areas, as redistributing pressure throughout the body can momentarily load weak tendons. However, these niggles typically subside within a couple of days as your body adjusts to the new alignment. These temporary discomforts are necessary for improving your body's alignment and overall well-being.
