AYURVEDA

Ayurveda is widely recognised as the oldest system of health care in the world. The basic principles have not changed over thousands of years and are based on the laws of nature that are eternally true and man is part of nature and therefore governed by these laws.

Ayurvedic medicine works on the root cause of your problems rather than just treating your symptoms.

Ayurveda is a complete system which is holistic and understands that there are many aspects of our life that contribute towards our sense of health and wellbeing.

What I love about Ayurveda!

I have found that Ayurveda is so empowering. Once I learned the skills to improve my health and wellbeing, my kitchen became my pharmacy. I can share this knowledge with you in our consultations.

It is amazing how more alive I feel when I align myself with Ayurvedic principles and therefore live in the rhythm of nature.

ONCOLOGY (CANCER) MASSAGE

Being diagnosed with Cancer is a very confronting time, filled with shock and disbelief. I will discuss with you a plan to assist you manage your medical treatment.

If you are caring for someone with cancer, this massage will also be very beneficial for you. It will give you some much needed space to re-energize and nourish you so you can continue to care for your loved one. It is so imporant that you make some time for yourself when caring for someone with a life limiting illness. I understand how demanding this role is.

What is Oncology Massage?

Oncology Massage is the adaptation of massage to an individual with cancer or a history of cancer. It is systemic touch that is very gentle yet profound.

Oncology Massage works with the fascia just beneath the skin. The fascia is a web of connective tissue that connects us from head to toe. Immune system cells move through the fascia as the body requires them.

Adjustments are made in consideration of:
** Lymph node removal;
** Chemotherapy;
** Radiotherapy;
** Mastectomy.

Is Oncology Massage Safe?

Oncogenesis is the formation of a tumour and occurs when external factors such as viruses or hereditary factors change the normal function of cellular DNA. These malfunctioning cells are weak, unstable and erratic by nature and if the immune system is awake they will be killed.

These cells keep moving through the body looking for somewhere to connect and grow. Therefore they are spread biologically not mechanically which is why Oncology Massage is a safe treatment for cancer patients - Massage does not spread Cancer.

I will work with women who have a mastectomy scar to help heal the area. It may take a few weeks to notice any improvement but it will make a difference.

I will work with people currently living with cancer and I will show their carer how to give their loved one massage at home or before,during or after their treatments.
