Physiotherapy & BodyTalk

Physiotherapy

What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is hands-on treatment and exercise prescription to address movement dysfunction.  Physiotherapy can help with pain, congenital anomalies, disease processes, accident or injury, enforced inactivity, problems secondary to aging, or psychological or social stress.

What can Physiotherapy help with?
Muscular aches: Physiotherapy can ease stiffness, reduce pain and encourage blood flow to the muscles. Massage therapy is also used to reduce tension around aching muscles.
Sports injuries: aches and pains are common following a frantic and physically demanding period of exertion.
Arthritis: Physiotherapy helps to ease stiffness in the joints and to increase blood flow to the muscles and enhance the range of physical movement. Physiotherapy can also help to build strength. The exercises are often gentler for older people who are usually more fragile.
Respiratory problems: cystic fibrosis, which is a condition that primarily affects the lungs and digestive system can be helped by physiotherapy. Patients suffering from other conditions including pneumonia, asthma and lung cancer may also benefit from physiotherapy.
Rehabilitation: recovery and rehabilitation processes are instrumental to the well being of a patient especially in the case of a serious accident or a complex medical problem.

What is Body Talk?

What is Bodytalk?
Bodytalk is a consciousness/energy based health care modality, which builds upon the body’s innate ability to heal itself. It encompasses western medicine, the energy dynamics of acupuncture, osteopathic/ manual therapy principles, the clinical findings of applied kinesiology and the rapidly emerging science of quantum physics and mathematics.

If you are experiencing ANY symptoms of dis-ease, physical, mental, emotional or spiritual, this means that your body’s ability to self-heal has been compromised. This is almost always the result of sudden or cumulative stresses of any kind (internal and external), which force the body to deal with the effects of stress, at the expense of something else. This eventually leads to a lack of function, lack of communication, or imbalance between the neglected body parts and the whole. Hence the symptoms.

Bodytalk is a healing approach that focuses on bringing attention back to the involved body parts and integrating them back into the body/mind, while addressing the initial cause: stress.

It is safe, effective and non-invasive and I welcome you to try at least a few sessions to enable your body to start healing itself again.
