Osteopathy can also be used to help in the management of chronic pain due to work related injuries especially for those who work at a desk for several hours per day. It is also an effective tool to assist in rehabilitation for those who have been injured in a motor vehicle accident.
Massage Therapy
The benefits of therapeutic massage are not a recent discovery. Its value is recognized throughout the world and many cultures have practised it for centuries.
A calm and relaxed body can bring about changes beyond the purely physical. Although the effects of a therapeutic massage are often dramatic in terms of relief of pain or tension, many clients also notice general changes in the way they cope with the stresses and strains of modern life.
A relaxed body allows the the mind to come to rest and take stock of the activity we surround ourselves with. In turn, a calm mind can be instrumental in fighting off physical ailments.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture, acupressure, diet, exercise and herbal medicine are part of a system of medical knowledge which has helped millions for over 4,000 years. Each of us is an energetic system. Our “Qi”, universal life force, circulates through meridian pathways. If Qi is imbalanced or blocked, we have pain or illness. During your treatment, acu-points are stimulated to improve your energy and restore good health. Acupressure and non-needle treatments are available choices at Jane’s office at the Hydrostone Market in the Northend of Halifax
Stimulation of the acu-points causes definite physiological responses in brain activity, neuro-transmitters, blood chemistry, endocrine functions, blood pressure, heart rate, and immunological response.
