Massage and related body work therapies promote balance in physical, mental, emotional and energetic levels of the body. Many of these modalities can be blended within a treatment. Mosman Massage Therapy has a range of fully qualified and accredited practitioners, offering the following specialities:
REMEDIAL MASSAGE - When muscles and tendons become damaged and tense, or joints are immobile, Remedial Massage provides a healing treatment designed to explore the original cause and relieve the symptoms. When muscles feel fatigued, stiff and sore, Remedial Massage stretches and lengthens these muscles and reduces spasms. Circulation and the removal of waste products is improved. This form of massage is suitable for problems arising from sports and activities, from the work environment, or from everyday life situations.
DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE - Deep Tissue Massage is an advanced form of Remedial Massage where there is more focused work, deeper into the soft tissue, to treat the presenting problem.
SPORTS MASSAGE - Sports Massage is the manipulation of the body’s ligaments, tendons and muscles as part of one's training programme and health maintenance, and also before, during and after a sporting event. The aim is to help the individual achieve peak performance, optimise recovery and minimise injury. In helping the muscles return to normal function, activity can be resumed sooner and peak performance sustained. It is beneficial to both elite and everyday athletes.
SWEDISH MASSAGE - Swedish Massage is relaxing and invigorating designed to increase the blood flow, calm or invigorate the nervous system and release toxins from the muscles. A deeply relaxing massage promotes quality sleep, which in turn promotes calming of the mind and repair of tissues. Swedish Massage reduces stress, both emotional and physical.
PREGNANCY MASSAGE - Assuming there are no medical conditions, massage in any trimester of pregnancy can be a huge benefit as the body goes through many physical and physiological changes resulting in aches and pains, joint issues, muscle imbalances, fluid retention, circulation issues and lack of energy. Mosman Massage Therapy has available the Belly Bag©... designed to safely surround and support your body and baby, while laying face down on the treatment table. Two people now depend on your health and vitality, so Pregnancy Massage should be an integral part of your pregnancy health management.
HAWAIIAN MASSAGE (Lomi Lomi & Ka Huna) – This bodywork was brought out of the temples of Hawaii by the Kahunas. When experiencing Hawaiian body work people are amazed by the energy they receive from the healing session. Every time you have a Hawaiian Massage you experience something different - sometimes physical healing and relaxation, another time you may feel the unlocking of stuck emotions. The practitioner uses their hands, forearms and elbows and moves around the table (using rhythmical flowing hula and Tai Chi style movements) working with energy while applying soft and deep tissue massage.
REFLEXOLOGY – Stress, toxins and illness create blockages in the body inhibiting the flow of energy. Reflexology stimulates these congested reflexes, assisting in clearing the blockages, allowing the flow of energy. Based on the principle that all parts of the body are reflected on the feet and hands, the goal of Reflexology is to trigger the return of balance to the entire body, mind and spirit by the application of pressure to the reflex parts of the feet and hands. This activates an electro-chemical nerve impulse which is conducted to the central nervous system to restore equilibrium to the body.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE MASSAGE - This is a powerful, yet light and gentle treatment, which stimulates lymphatic flow, cleansing and detoxifying the system, assisting in reduction of excess fluids and strengthening the immune system.
REIKI - The art of Reiki channels Chi (life force) to heal and harmonise the body. By working on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels, it clears negative energy and balances the body’s chakras and aura. Reiki can be used on its own, or in conjunction with other treatments.
AROMATHERAPY - Through massage, Aromatherapy applies essential oils (aromatic potions from leaves, flowers and herbs) customised to the needs of the individual, to revive, restore and to ‘heal’ the body. Aromatherapy helps restore the harmony between body and mind through powerful effects on the senses of touch and smell.
CLAIRVOYANT HEALING - By tuning into your own unique energy vibration, a Clairvoyant Healing session involves channelling information for you with great clarity and detail. As this information is brought to your awareness, healing is facilitated though the guidance and messages that are received. It covers the balancing and clearing of your Chakras and energy field, strengthening and grounding of your Channel, reviewing and releasing of Past Lives, connecting you with your Angels and Spirit Guides and much more. We help clear emotional blockages and patterns that have been holding you back for years and afterwards leaves you feeling incredibly relaxed and peaceful.
KINESIOLOGY - this is the use of muscle testing to assess energy imbalances in a person, detecting the priorities and needs for healing each individual as a whole. It is one of the fastest growing natural health sciences in the world today. The focus is on assessing the energetic blocks, then different processes are used to remove the related stresses and the body is free to heal itself. The Kinesiology treatment incorporates a variety of energy-based techniques, energy psychology, meridian and chakra therapy, specialised bodywork, neurological re-patterning, NLP techniques, sound and colour therapy, guided imagery, nutritional advice and life goal management.
