Alison GilkesRemedial & Sports Massage TherapyAbout
Remedial & Sports Massage Therapy is just that. Therapy.
Massage is a versatile tool and can be invaluable in the treatment of a diverse range of problems. Clients come to the clinic for many reasons:
Frustrated clients unable to return to exercise due to old injuries and scars causing pain.
Clients with busy lifestyles that are stressed, tense, and need to unwind.
Clients who spend a long time in one position and experience tightness & stiffness when they move around.
Muscular aches, pains & stiffness?
Sports related injuries and niggles that impact your enjoyment or performance?
Stress, tension and generally feeling uptight?
Pain when moving a certain way, or when bending or lifting?
Old injuries that cause pain, or hinder peformance?
Stiffness from sitting at a desk all day?
Sports Specific
Runners, cyclists, triathletes and many others are prone to muscular injuries. Injuries may be mechanical, but can often be due to an individual’s particular biodynamics (way of moving), inherent muscular imbalances and non-activation of important muscle groups that are needed to support the movement.
Sports massage and remedial therapy can work to pinpoint the problem areas and work on releasing the tight musculature and fascia that is impeding movement, or causing pain. It comprises of remedial, deep tissue and holistic massage techniques and is completely bespoke to you and your needs.
Releasing tight and overused muscles can result in a greater range of movement and improved performance, as well as helping you to enjoy your chosen sport, pain free.
Amateur athletes who clock up a lot of mileage should consider sports massage as an integral part of their training regimen in order to keep the body pain and injury free, and to hit those PB’s. Regular sessions will keep you in peak fitness.
Wellbeing Massage
As the name implies, this massage will deal with the aches and pains you are experiencing that need not have any sporting connection. Once assessed, the massage will target the required areas and employ a number of techniques dependent on the client’s needs. This could involve deep tissue massage, or a gentle holistic massage that simply reduces tension, and leaves the client with a heightened sense of wellbeing.
Everyone will benefit from a wellbeing massage, as it can reduce muscle tension and pain
– improve the mobility of joints and range of movement
– improve rehabilitation after injury
– improve circulation

What is hypnotherapy?
“The mind is powerful, and you have more control than you think.” Scott D. Lewis
If you think of your brain as an ocean, then the conscious part of your brain is the surface of that ocean, while the great watery depths represent the subconscious brain. The subconscious is deep, vast and largely unexplored.
We use the conscious brain every day to make decisions and process thoughts, and this is the part of the mind that you are aware of. The elusive subconscious mind quietly records every little thing that ever happens to you in life, and controls the involuntary functions, habits and emotional aspects of our behavior.
Both the conscious and subconscious mind work in tandem, and if not working well together, problems can surface such as anger issues, a poor relationship with food or perhaps seeking destructive relationships.
Patterns of behavior are programmed into the subconscious from the earliest age, and we absorb what is around us: emotional conditioning, experiences, fears, and anxieties.
Hypnotherapy allows an entirely natural and deeply relaxed state that taps into the recesses of the subconscious mind, an area that we cannot usually access. When in this relaxed state, the brain wavelength changes and the subconscious becomes open to suggestion. This part of the brain is incredibly powerful and without agenda. The hypnotic state allows the subconscious the ability to accept solutions
Through guided suggestion, we can eliminate limits placed by the conscious mind. This can change thought patterns and effectively re-boot an aspect of your behavior that is making you unhappy or causing issues.
Hypnotherapy is an effective clinical treatment for a whole range of problems ranging from stress, anxiety, overeating, smoking cessation to phobias and self-destructive behavioral patterns.
Anxiety & Stress Relief
The terms anxiety and stress are often interchangeable, but there are a number of conditions that fall very specifically into the anxiety bracket. These include:
-
Agarophobia
-
Generalized anxiety
-
Obsessive Compulsive Disorders
-
Panic Attacks
-
Claustrophobia
-
Social Phobias
-
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
At its core, anxiety can make us believe that things, or a situation, in life is far worse than it actually is. We all experience it at a low grade (it’s part of our hormonal makeup, and connected to the release of stress hormones), but certain life events or triggers can tip us over the edge. Sometimes the cause is not clear to the sufferer, but it’s a very distressing condition. Stress, on the other hand, will wax and wane with the event in our lives.
Hypnotherapy can be of great value for a number of issues, including;
- anxiety & stress relief
- smoking cessation
- weight loss
- relationship problems
- exam stress
Claire uses a very friendly and relaxed approach with her clients, and the session is guided by the needs of the individual.
So-Hypno Hypnotherapy is for everyone. Hypnotherapy is a clinical tool that allows you to tap into a powerful and underused part of the brain. With guided suggestion, it is possible to re-boot and reprogram unhelpful behavior patterns and ways of thinking. Clients feel relaxed, unburdened and uplifted at the end of a session.
The only caveat is that the desire to achieve the end result must be there.
Take Control * Take Ownership * Make The Changes
We work together to achieve the changes you want in your life.
