Sports Massage can be used in preparation for an
event, as part of a recovery programme, and is
an important part of rehabilitation from injury.
Treatment can help to reduce the recurrence of
injuries, as well as being an excellent way to
maintain optimal health.
Rehabilitation helps to ensure that the original
weakness that caused an injury is corrected,
minimising the risk of re-injury, and
maintaining a fit and healthy body.
Rehabilitating properly from injury is vital -
if injuries are "coped with", then the whole
body ca suffer and the injury can continue to
cause problems for many years.
Abi is fully qualified to offer you a massage or
rehabilitation programme to meet your individual
needs and to provide maximum benefits for your
lifestyle.Treatments are available from Abi's
treatment room in Northam, near Bideford in
Devon.Please
give Abi a call to discuss your requirements.

Treatments offered: Homeopathy,
Homeopathy for Children |
More information: Rachel graduated from the British School of Homeopathy in
2005 and now practices from the Bideford
Wellbeing Centre in
Bideford. She is
a registered member of the Society of Homeopaths
and regularly attend workshops and seminars to
continue her professional development.
Homeopathy is a form
of complementary medicine that gently stimulates
the body's natural ability to heal itself. By
treating the person as a whole Homeopathy not
only addresses the symptoms you are experiencing
but also explores the underlying cause of
disease making treatment deeper and longer
lasting. Homeopathic remedies are produced from
very dilute forms of the original substance, are
free from side effects and are not addictive.
They are given in a liquid or pill form and are
safe for all - even babies, pregnant women and
the very frail. Homeopathy can used to
effectively treat long term chronic problems and
more acute ailments. Some examples of what
homeopathy can be used to treat are: recurrent
infections, hormonal disturbances, digestive
complaints, circulatory problems, skin
complaints, anxiety, depression, stress,
emotional and physical trauma.
Rachel has a
particular interest in the treatment of children
and the use of homeopathic remedies during
pregnancy and childbirth. Homeopathy can be
extremely beneficial during pregnancy as many
physical and emotional changes are occurring
which can cause a number of minor health
complaints. These include morning sickness,
diarrhoea, heartburn, anaemia, varicose veins,
cramps and emotional distress. Homeopathic
remedies are ideal to use in this situation -
they cannot cause harm because they only use a
tiny quantity of the active ingredient. By being
as healthy as possible during pregnancy you are
giving your baby the ideal conditions in which
to thrive.
Homeopathy is a safe and effective healthcare
for the whole family, which recognises you as an
individual and stimulates your body to heal
itself.
