CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on approach
that releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction
and improve whole-body health and performance. It was pioneered and
developed by Osteopathic Physician John E. Upledger after years of
clinical testing and research at Michigan State University where he
served as professor of biomechanics.
Using a soft touch which is generally no greater than 5 grams - about
the weight of a 10c coin - practitioners release restrictions in the soft
tissues that surround the central nervous system. CST is increasingly
used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster
resistance to disease, and it's effective for a wide range of medical
problems associated with pain and dysfunction.
What is Bioelectric Meridian Therapy?
Bioelectric Meridian Therapy (BMT) is the next generation in preventative health, using the body’s natural bioelectricity to improve general wellbeing, organ health and promote functional movement. Combining traditional Chinese medicine beliefs with the latest in
western technology, BMT combines the best of
both worlds. By opening and clearing the body’s main meridian lines it
creates a detoxing effect which can prevent disharmony and imbalances in
the body that can lead to disease and illness.
BMT uses a DDS Bioelectric device (Australia's only TGA certified) that generates a small
electrical signal which is transferred to the client’s body through the
therapist’s hands. The practitioner’s touch together with the
bioelectric energy, and a high alkaline BMT cream, helps to unblock the
body’s main meridian pathways–supercharging the body’s natural healing
process.
Using the body’s natural bioelectricity stimulates nerves and cells
and increases Qi flow (energy).This can lead to improved blood
circulation and immune system. This process also helps to regulate and
alkalise the body’s natural pH level. The therapy can decrease muscle pain, reduce fatigue, improve gut function, help with sleep, and maintain good health.

What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage?
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) was developed in France in
1932 by Dr. Vodder. It is a technique that uses only a 50c hand
pressure and unique deliberate movements to stimulate the lymphatic flow
and aid in drainage of tissues. The drainage is not a muscular massage
but a harmonious and painless massage of the connective tissue which has
in-depth effect on the tissues, acting as a natural cleansing system.
Recommended for people with lymphedema, fluid retention, reduced
mobility, to boost the immunity system, gut health or following surgery.
No oils are used in this treatment and it is recommended you drink
extra water after the treatment to help flush the body.

swelling, tightness and de-congesting muscles. It includes a
combination of healing natural therapies such as stimulating acupressure
points, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine's concept of meridians;
lymphatic drainage techniques to remove toxins and stimulate the immune
system; reflexology of the feet, where various points correspond to
particular organs and parts of the body; and polarity therapy to
re-balance your body.
