Complementary Therapies

Alexander Technique uses light touch and simple explanation to teach people to recognise how we hold stress and tension in our bodies, and how we can let go of this to find greater ease and well-being.

Aromatherapy uses gentle massage with an individual prescription of aromatic oils to relieve symptoms and to promote relaxation and general well-being.

Massage uses systematic manipulation of the body’s soft tissues to enhance circulation and breathing, release muscle tension, improve sleep, modify anxiety, reduce pain, and produce deep relaxation.

Relaxation helps you to acquire skills and techniques to relax the body and release the imagination, encouraging feelings of wellbeing and confidence, leading to the relief of symptoms and stress

Yoga works with postures, breathing, and meditation to teach ways of living more harmoniously in the world, and can be a pathway towards a deeper understanding of self. Usually offered as group work. Click on any of the leaflets below for further information:
