Massage
Therapy
helps to rehabilitate physical injuries and improve health by acting directly
upon the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. It prevents or lessens
some physical problems, whether they are a result of injury, disease, repetitive
strain, long periods of inactivity or other causes. Massage Therapy positively
affects circulation, pain perception, muscular and nervous systems, psychological
state and respiratory function thus enabling people to remain active.
Conditions
Treated
by the Registered Massage Therapists at the Clinic include: whiplash, headaches,
back and neck pain, sprains and strains, muscle spasm, arthritis, tendonitis,
fibrositis, carpal tunnel syndrome, bursitis, sciatica, neuritis, neuralgia,
insomnia, asthma, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, acute reaction to stress
and other physical complaints. Also, massage therapy may be combined with
physiotherapy and/or a rehabilitation programme specifically designed by the
kinesiologist in consultation with the therapist.
As
rehabilitative sciences evolve
and new information becomes available, the Clinic's therapists make every
effort to keep up-to-date. Each month, there is an in-house educational session
attended by the Clinic's therapists. All of the therapists are actively involved
in post-graduate education
