Hi! My name is Elise:)

As a Naturopath who has a particular interest in 'physical therapies' - a massage with me is described as: 'therapeutic'.

Yes - I bring a variety of techniques such as Deep Tissue and Trigger Point therapy, Myofascial Release (soft tissue stretching techniques), and Relaxation; which have been developed through formal training plus my work with Chiropractors and other therapists over the last 10 years.

I believe it is a 'philosophy of care' rather than a series of techniques that defines what you do as a therapist.

So, your treatment with me - whether it be a massage, a Naturopathic consultation or a Personal Training or Pilates session - will always be guided by YOU - the client. Your muscles, fascia, injuries, stress levels, and any other response you have, is constantly monitored and used to guide further care. Because - ultimately - I care about you and your health. Sounds a bit cheesy but it's true. That's why I chose this career path!! I want to help people - like you - achieve optimal health and wellbeing. And when you do, you'll feel amazing!! (and if you're already there - you know how important it is to maintain!).

Not only this, but I am extremely interested in finding out your body's myofascial patterns that perpetuate any postural imbalances, recurring injuries or pain. So let's work together to reduce your pain, discomfort, stress, tension and postural imbalances... towards efficient and pain-free musculoskeletal function. See you soon!

Musculoskeletal Therapy

An initial session will consist of a thorough history taking at the beginning of the session to find out the reason for your visit in your own words. 
After that a physical assessment of all problem areas of the body will be undertaken to test for proper functioning and to start pinpointing specific sore points and the root cause of the dysfunction. A full explanation is given throughout so the patient is aware of what type of treatment they're getting and what is happening with they're bodies to cause their current pain.
Then the actual treatment will consist of multiple types of manual therapy to release tight and sore structures all while fully clothed. Specific techniques like dry needling and cupping may also be used if the treatment requires it.
At the end of the session the patient is educated in a number of stretches or strength exercises to promote further healing outside of the clinic at home.
Rebookings will vary depending on the nature of the initial issue and will be aimed at progressing the body towards proper function or maintenance each session.
