We believe in relaxing the nervous system first.
Experiences of trauma and stress, whether from developmental years or later in life, can be stored in the body. The mind body connection is extremely important. In fact, it is not a connection, but one. We cannot treat the physical body without affecting all aspects of a person.
At Shelbourne Massage Therapy in Victoria, our approach is holistic and multidisciplinary. We help the body remember how healthy tissue moves and feels, restoring function and ease. This begins with creating a warm and comfortable place and adding in trained and healing hands. We also teach people the benefits of exercise, proper nutrition, good work habits and a peaceful lifestyle. We will create a personalized exercise and massage program which creates a long lasting effect versus a short term fix.
Stressful lifestyles seem to be a part of our world today. It is essential to have counter balancing approaches that help a person cope with the current and past stresses they face or carry with them. Our goal is to assist a person in achieving a pain free, relaxed existence.
We will strive to:
- Deliver safe, effective and professional assessment and treatment of injury, pain and physical disorders related to soft tissue and joint dysfunction.
- Rehabilitate, maintain and/or improve physical function, relieve pain, promote health and enhance quality of life.
- Continually develop clinical skills and areas of expertise through continuing education and professional development.
- Help clients to achieve, regain and/or maintain healthy active lifestyles.
