How does it work?
It is based on the belief that light touch can trigger a relaxation response in the soft tissue of the body, and that the therapy may help relieve tensions resulting in feeling of improved comfort.
I am an Advanced Practitioner of the EMMETT Technique and I tutor the EMMETT Technique Workshops for self-help.
The EMMETT Technique is a unique body therapy created by Ross Emmett, in Australia, that uses light finger pressure at specific points on the body. It may be enjoyed by people of all ages, from babies to the elderly.
Symptoms that may be assisted:
The relaxing nature of the technique results in people reporting typical responses such as:
Improved comfort and ease within the area treated such as back, abdomen, hips, legs, knees, ankles feet, shoulders, arms, hands and neck
More restful sleep
Enhanced mood
A sense of lightness within the body
What should you expect?
You may be asked some questions about your general heath and the reason for your visit. Treatments may be done while you are fully clothed although some garments may need to be removed or loosened. While individual experiences may vary, relief is often instantaneous.
The EMMETT Technique is a complete therapy on its own but it has the ability to work in combination with other techniques.
I offer it as a standalone 30 minute appointment, or it can be booked as part of a longer Massage or Reflexology session. Please book the total time you require under Massage or Reflexology etc.
