Massage
Massage therapy addresses many health issues, the most common being stress related tension, which experts believe accounts for a large percentage of disease. Massage has proven beneficial in treating low back pain, fatigue, depression, diabetes, high blood pressure, suppressed immunity and sleep disorders, amongst other things.
Bodywork offers a non-invasive approach based on the body's ability to heal itself. Massage has many physiological effects such as:
- Increasing circulation, allowing the body to pump more oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs.
- Stimulating the lymphatic system, this is the body’s natural defense, against toxic invaders. For example, in breast cancer patients, massage has been shown to increase the cells that fight cancer.
- Relaxing and softening injured and overused muscles.
- Reducing spasms and cramping.
- Increasing joint flexibility.
- Reducing recovery time for strenuous workouts and eliminating subsequent pains of the athlete at any level.
- Releasing endorphins, the body's natural painkillers. For this reason, massage is being incorporated into treatment for chronic illness, injury and recovery from surgery to control and relieve pain.
- Reducing post-surgery adhesions and oedema and reducing and realigning scar tissue after healing has occurred.
- Improving range of motion and decreasing discomfort for patients with low back pain.
- Relieving pain for migraine sufferers and decreasing the need for medication.
Providing exercise and stretching for tight muscles and reducing shortening of the muscles for those with restricted range of motion.
- Contributing to shorter labour and reduced tearing for expectant mothers, as well as lessening the need for medication, minimizing depression and anxiety, and shortening hospital stays.

Reiki
Who can benefit from Reiki?
Everybody can benefit from Reiki!
Can Reiki be used with other therapies?
Reiki can be used any time or place and combines nicely with other holistic practices and standard medical treatments. Reiki does not conflict with any religious beliefs nor is it necessary for the recipient to 'believe' in Reiki because it is a universal form of life's energy and gives freely of itself.
How does Reiki work?
Reiki is an energy that 'works' with us on many levels. Using certain touch points on or off the body, a gentle technique is used to channel Reiki's healing energy to the client through the practitioner' hands.
Reiki restores balance and harmony on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels and affects all energy systems of the body. Most people experience deep relaxation and release of tension, which triggers the body's natural healing abilities, improves and maintains health and leads to freedom from body aches and pains.
