Massage at The Stillpoint
When was the last time You felt truly, deeply relaxed?
The Stillpoint Philosophy
- I believe that a massage can be both relaxing and remedial.
- I believe that a massage can be effective without being too painful.
- I work on the Chinese principal of “Good Pain ” and rely on my clients to guide me in the appropriate amount of pressure they need.
- I believe it is important to listen to my clients and find out what they need on each particular day.
- I believe it is important to have a wide range of skills available, so that each massage session can be designed to best meet your needs.
- Massage should not be just a “treat” or an emergency fix. For me, massage is an integral part of looking after myself, and has been for the past 35 years.
Massage improves muscle tone and function, helps clear toxins from the body, can help reduce blood pressure, release stress and improve physical, mental and emotional well-being.
Remedial Massage
My remedial massage practice is now based around Emmett Technique as I have found it fast, effective and gentle on the body. Emmett can effect significant change in a single treatment, but is also cumulative when addressing chronic problems.
Combined with general Swedish massage, dynamic cupping, acupressure and myofascial release techniques, my aim is to relieve muscle tightness, imbalance and discomfort, leaving your body feeling strong, stable and flexible.
Remedial techniques may assist with:
- lower back pain
- hip & leg pain
- sciatica
- neck & shoulder pain
- whiplash
- tension headaches
- jaw problems
- leg & knee problems
- achilles tightness
- elbow & wrist problems (tennis elbow)
- poor grip strength
- incontinence & urgency
Relaxation Massage
When you just need to chill out.
Aromatherapy oils can be blended to meet your needs. Soothing and gentle massage, with Reiki if you like, to calm the spirit, quiet the mind & refresh the body.
Lymphatic Massage
Mesmeric and relaxing, lymphatic massage can stimulate and support the lymphatic system, promoting toxin removal & supporting immune function. Manual Lymphatic drainage can be used to assist in the management of oedema and lymphedema caused by injury, surgery or radiation therapy.
Reiki Treatments
Reiki is Universal Energy. When our energies are in balance with the rest of the Universe we feel well, when we are out of balance we experience dis-ease & discomfort. Reiki is warm, relaxing and non-invasive, and works by balancing your energy. Great for people who don’t like massage, but are seeking relaxation and renewal.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy affects posture, muscles, lymphatic flow, circulation, sleeping patterns and energy. I offer gentle massage for all stages of pregnancy, and can assist with sore back and shoulder muscles, aching, tired legs and general energy and well-being.
Emmett Technique can be particularly beneficial in maintaining pelvic alignment before and after delivery, and in dealing with common neck & shoulder problems that occur with breast feeding.
Massage for Infants & Children
Gentle massage and Emmett Technique can offer a range of benefits for children, from birth to adolescence.
- Babies born with torticolis (wry neck) that can interfere with feeding
- Reflux and gut problems
- Neck & shoulder tightness (from stress, poor posture and computers) causing headaches
- Posture and balance (especially important for sports, dancers, gymnasts)
