Frequently Asked Questions

Advanced Clinical massage uses a combination of techniques taught by Jing (Jing Massage-Brighton) which include stretching, soft tissue work, meridian work, trigger point release and myofascial release. These specific techniques can help to  release pain pathologies, stretch out tight muscles, release trigger points and trace referred pain patterns.

I deal with clients suffering with painful conditions such as:

  • Tennis / golfer’s elbow
  • Frozen shoulder
  • Carpal tunnel
  • Migraines and headaches
  • Back pain- upper and lower
  • Tight neck and shoulders
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Sleep disturbances

 

I  use Deep Abdominal Massage-Anmo Fu an ancient healing system based on the Chinese theory that our internal organs control and enhance our physiology. I was taught by John Brazier of KORE Academy. We balance the internal organs to clear blockages and stimulate  the flow of energy, thereby promoting good health and organs which can function to their best ability given today’s lifestyle.

Many things can effect the functioning of our internal organs and digestive system- stress being the major factor, but accidents and operations can impact hugely on function with scar tissue creating tension and twisting of bowel or soft tissue.

By manipulating the bowels, the trapped water and wind is removed, which can lead to a dramatic recovery of all the body systems.

Issues can stay in the body for years causing many conditions that affect the human race (IBS, Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative colitis, ME etc. Stagnation can also create temperature differences which can cause lower back pain, infertility(in men and women), sexual problems, fibroids and other painful conditions. Food stagnation is a big cause of fatigue type issues, such as M.E, IBS, and Crohn’s.

  • Chronic fatigue/M.E
  • IBS
  • Lower back pain
  • Digestive problems/Crohn’s
  • Problem of disturbed sleep from needing to pee

Reflexology is not simply a ‘foot rub’. It is a safe, non-intrusive and very effective natural healing art based on the principal that there are reflexes in the head, hands, ears and feet that relate to all organs and systems of the body.  It is also a wonderful treatment for individuals who may not be comfortable with a body massage.

These reflexes are like ‘pressure points’, and stimulating them using various pressure and massage techniques increase the flow of energy to corresponding areas of the body.

Reflexology can reach the very root of physical and emotional problems, treating the client holistically.

Reflexologists do not diagnose, prescribe or treat specific conditions; a reflexology session treats the whole body and in doing so helps to restore the body’s natural balance and improve your health.

Occasionally little hard beads or ‘crystals’ can be felt on the soles of the feet during a treatment. These are believed to be toxic deposits which have settled in our feet. Working these areas helps to break up the deposits, further promotes the body’s detoxification and cleansing process
