Help Your Body Regain It's Optimum Dynamic Potential
WE ARE DELIGHTED TO ANNOUNCE WE HAVE FULLY REOPENED.
Covid Update
All Therapists will be wearing masks and sanitising both their own and the clients hands before beginning a session. There will also be increased time between appointments to allow for cleaning and aerating of rooms.
We will also be asking patients to work with us on a few policies to help keep everyone safe and prevent the potential spread of the virus. Firstly we ask that you try to arrive on time for your appointment and if you do arrive early to wait outside the clinic until your allotted time. We will be asking everyone to wear a face mask on arrival, if you don't happen to have any then they will be provided just inside the front door. We will also be checking people's temperature on arrival at the clinic. If you do develop any symptoms of COVID-19 including: high temperature, loss of smell/ taste or a new persistent cough prior to or within 3 days of visiting the clinic, We ask that you let us know (we will not charge any cancellations fees due to development of COVID-19 symptoms). We will be asking patients to come alone to their appointments if possible, but as always you are entitled to bring a chaperone if you wish. If you do want to bring a chaperone.
While we are following best practice models being put in place at clinics reopening their doors to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19, patients should be aware that we cannot fully mitigate all risks, and we ask patients to fully consider this before coming to the clinic.
If you have any further questions about our policies please feel free to get in touch by giving us a call.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Stay safe and well.

Connective Tissue Release Therapy
Returning many of your body's joints to their full range of movement in a gentle non invasive therapy.
Connective Tissue Release. The Hugh Gilbert Technique.
Imagine a spider's web running from the tip of your toes to the crown of your head.
It attaches to everything in your body, studies have shown this web goes through your tendons, muscles, ligaments and even your brain tissue. It is your body's first like of defence against danger to the body and it does so by tightening up to protect around your vital organs with 2000lbs of pressure per square inch. Sometimes though, this web doesn't unravel when the danger has passed. As you can imagine this type of pressure when left switched on over time can cause long term discomfort and eventual restriction of joints and movement. When this is the case, often times no amount of massage or postural alignment will bring the body back to its optimum performance without releasing these restricted joints.
This technique has been designed to allow the body to release gently and as pain free as possible in order to allow you to return to your best.
