- Gentle & non-invasiveEnergy work is a non-invasive energy therapy where practitioners use their hands to influence the energy field around the body, and channel healing energy into the recipient through gentle touch or by hovering their hands over the body.
- Promotes RelaxationEnergy work is known to activate the body’s natural relaxation response. This helps reduce levels of stress while promoting the release of feel-good chemicals, such as endorphins. By harmonising the body’s vibrational frequencies, energy work induces a deep state of calm and balance.
- Reduces PainBy lowering stress and anxiety levels, energy work can help alleviate pain perception. The induced state of relaxation allows the body to shift away from the “fight or flight” mode, which often exacerbates pain and inflammation. By addressing blockages in the body’s energy flow, it aims to restore balance, which can lead to improved physical comfort and a higher quality of life.
- Accelerates HealingEnergy work supports the body’s internal healing processes by removing energetic blockages that may impede recovery. Can improve immune function and mood, creating an internal environment conducive to faster healing. Energy is channelled to the client, which may help restore the body’s natural energy field and support physical and emotional well-being
Fascia is a three-dimensional network of connective tissue
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release (MFR) is a unique and powerful therapeutic approach that can alleviate both chronic and acute pain, as well as deep-seated tension. When performed correctly, it is highly effective for addressing complex pain conditions and can be beneficial for individuals who may not respond well to or find regular massage too painful.
Can help with
- Long lasting pain after an injury regular massage can't seem to touch
- Release tension and help relaxation
- Usually recommended for frozen shoulder
- Immediate pain reliefMyofascial Release has demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in reducing chronic pain associated with conditions such as low back pain. By targeting and releasing restrictions in the fascia, this therapeutic approach enhances blood circulation and helps decrease inflammation, ultimately providing significant pain relief.
- Stress ReliefThis form of massage offers profound relaxation, which can significantly lower stress levels. By addressing both the physical and emotional components of tension, myofascial release therapy fosters a deep sense of calm and overall well-being.
- Injury Prevention and recovery Everyone can benefit from maintaining healthy fascia. It promotes quicker recovery from muscle strain or injuries. Conditions like hernias are often the result of a weak fascia or opening in your muscle tissue that allow an organ to poke through your abdominal wall, so maintaining a healthy fascia helps prevent this type of condition, as well as keeps your body more ready to take on life's challenges.
- Freedom of movement.Myofascial release unravels your fascia, allowing wider range of motion, not only after an injury but from releasing the tension we all accumulate through every day life. From shoulder to hip, it helps your body regain openness.
