Massage Therapy
A Visceral Therapy Massage is a gentle, hands-on treatment that focuses on the internal organs and their surrounding connective tissues. Using subtle, targeted techniques, the therapist works to release restrictions, restore natural movement within the abdomen, support digestion, reduce bloating and enhance the connection between the organs and musculoskeletal system.
Osteopathy
Osteopaths identify and treat anatomical asymmetries that can interfere with the proper function of bodily systems, creating pain or distress. Through a comprehensive assessment, the osteopath will look for the source of dysfunction and use a wide range of hands on approaches to treat you holistically. Osteopathic techniques include hands-on osteoarticular mobilizations, myofascial release, cranial-sacral technique and visceral (organ) manipulation. Manual Osteopaths use an approach that is gentle, comprehensive and highly effective.
Lymphatic Drainage
A lymphatic drainage massage is a gentle, rhythmic massage technique designed to stimulate the flow of lymph fluid through the body’s lymphatic system. Using light pressure and slow, sweeping movements, it helps reduce swelling, remove toxins and waste, and support immune function. It’s commonly used for conditions like fluid retention, post-surgical recovery, lymphedema and deep relaxation.
