Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese acupuncture uses fine needles to balance the body's energy flow through meridians. Vivien Fish, our experienced practitioner, combines 5-element and TCM techniques with moxibustion and cupping. Treatments address various conditions including pain management and fertility support, with Japanese Shonishin techniques available for children.
Osteopathy
Manual osteopathic treatments focus on musculoskeletal health through joint manipulation and soft tissue techniques. Our practitioners address back pain, postural issues, and sports injuries using evidence-based approaches. Treatment plans incorporate lifestyle advice and exercise recommendations to promote long-term wellness and prevent recurrence.
Yoga Classes
Diverse yoga offerings include Hatha, Iyengar, Sivananda, and Yoga For You styles. Classes accommodate all abilities, focusing on flexibility, strength, and mindfulness. Instructors adapt practices to individual needs, combining traditional postures with breathing exercises and meditation techniques to enhance physical and mental wellbeing.
Pilates
Body Control Pilates strengthens core muscles while improving posture and body alignment. Certified instructors teach small group classes using mat-work exercises accessible to all fitness levels. The method prevents injuries, aids rehabilitation, and enhances athletic performance through controlled movements and progressive difficulty tailored to individual capabilities.
Nutritional Therapy
Personalised nutritional guidance addresses dietary imbalances and supports overall health. Practitioners assess individual needs to create tailored eating plans that optimise digestion, energy levels, and immune function. The approach combines scientific understanding with practical advice to help clients achieve sustainable lifestyle changes through improved nutrition.
