Lymphoedema arises when lymphatic nodes or vessels have either not correctly formed (primary lymphoedema) or been damaged (secondary lymphoedema). Lymph fluid drains into the soft tissue, causing swelling. Secondary lymphoedema can occur after cancer surgery, radiation treatment or with certain medical conditions.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle and specific treatment that aims to drain the excess lymphatic fluid that accumulates in body tissues. It is recommended for those with circulation problems and tired, swollen and aching limbs. MLD also relaxes the nervous system leaving a sense of deep calm.
In some cases, Complex Lymphoedema Therapy (CLT) is required – this uses additional techniques such as low-level intensity laser, multi-layer compression bandaging, skin care management and special exercises to manage the swelling.

Functional Bodywork refers to a treatment approach that focuses on manipulation and realignment of the body’s structure (muscles, facia, viscera, ligaments and nerves) to address underlying problems such as musculoskeletal pain, joint restriction, headaches, migraines, insomnia, chronic stress and anxiety.
Key modalities include therapeutic massage, scar tissue release, Anatomy Trains® Structural Integration and postural analysis and correction.
Therapeutic massage includes remedial, sports, Swedish and Ki Shiatsu forms. Your practitioner will determine the right massage type based on your presenting symptoms.
Scar tissue release uses the STRAIT Method (Scar Tissue Release And Integrative Therapies) to restore the original movement and ease the pain, dysfunction and abnormal sensations that can occur from adhesions.
Anatomy Trains® Structural Integration uses various myofascial release techniques to fix posture and body movement imbalances caused by physical trauma or underlying emotional patterns.
Postural analysis and correction involves gentle pressure and mobilisation of connective tissue to engage the body's natural realignment functions.

Somatic Experiencing (SE®) helps patients reconnect with their inner self. This therapy involves the practitioner's active observation of the patient's body and nervous system responses to a traumatic situation.
The body's reaction to trauma can affect the autonomic nervous system by keeping it stuck in the "fight or flight" mode, meaning a person might feel constantly angry, frustrated or anxious. Even years after the trauma, these responses can linger and generate mental and physical symptoms as well as behavioural problems and addictions. Somatic Experience explains it is not the actual event that holds us back but the residual energy that creates the impact.
Unlike the traditional psychotherapy model, SE® techniques are body-oriented.
Various gentle body touch and movement techniques are used to re-regulate the patient's nervous system response and guide the patient to increase awareness of their bodily sensations. By restoring the body's awareness, patients can eliminate unwanted patterns and allow the gradual release of stress.

Neurofeedback is designed to train the brain to achieve its own optimal state. This completely non-invasive and safe form of therapy is not a medical treatment but rather aims to enhance your mood and improve your cognitive functioning. It is useful for anybody with high stress, or anxiety, or who just wants to remove brain fog to think clearer and faster.
This therapy uses NeurOptimal® neurofeedback, a proprietary form of brain training which measures brain activity as it is occurring. A specialised machine uses small sensors that monitor brain activity 256 times per second. No electrical impulse is delivered. The training happens whilst the patient is listening to pleasant music.
Typically, patients require 10 to 15 sessions to address their presenting issue; however, many cases have shown a reduction of the signs and symptoms from the first session. Progress tracking tools are used at the end of each session to track improvements and the effectiveness of the intervention.
