Benefits of Remedial Massage and Aromatherapy

Remedial Massage and Aromatherapy offer a powerful combination for physical and emotional healing. Remedial massage focuses on alleviating muscle tension, treating injuries, and improving circulation by working on deeper muscle layers. It helps with pain management, increases flexibility, and supports rehabilitation. Aromatherapy enhances this by using essential oils that promote relaxation, reduce stress, and stimulate healing. Together, these therapies provide a holistic approach to wellness, addressing both physical discomfort and emotional well-being, making it ideal for managing stress, chronic pain, and tension.

Here at the Metabolic Health Hub, Michele Pocknee provides a range of therapeutic services for preventative health and general wellbeing.

What is Aromatherapy Massage?

Aromatherapy Massage is a holistic treatment, developed by Micheline Arcier, it releases tension, re-balances energy and revitalizes body, mind and spirit.
Essential oils are diluted to a safe ratio and combined with a carrier oil for deep stress relief, improved circulation of blood and lymph, helping to ease tension, 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.

What is CranioSacral Therapy?

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.
