Body Stress Release gets to the root of many back problems, persistent headaches, sciatica and joint problems as well as helping people deal better with the stresses of daily life. It is a gentle, relaxing technique, often highly effective where other techniques have failed to deliver results.

Although BSR’s roots are within the chiropractic profession, it does not use forceful manipulation of the body and clients remain fully clothed throughout sessions. Areas of stored tension are located using a series of gentle tests. Then a light, precise pressure is used to encourage your muscles to relax back to their natural state of tone. 

For further information about the technique and to read case studies of how BSR has helped people see www.unlockmyback.com or call 023 9263 1012.

Available Tuesday to Thursday and some weekends. Special rates for Oasis members and QAh staff - £99 for an introductory course of three sessions (usually £130) and £30 for follow-up sessions (usually £40). 
**Special Back Care Awareness Week offer - book before end October 2011 to get additional 10% discount**

What Kathy had to say:

Following years of struggling with my weight, being constantly tired, battling with what I thought was irritable bowel syndrome and in the last 2 years premenstrual symptoms that were beginning to have an impact on my general wellbeing, I contacted Sarah in November 2010. 

Sarah’s extensive knowledge of nutrition, supplemental, dietary and exercise advice has enabled me to re-think and plan what I eat – particularly reducing sugar levels in my food resulting in a reduction in the rush of visiting the toilet and raising my energy levels.

Sarah’s advice is clear and practical.  Her contribution in encouraging me to make the changes in a straightforward, simple and focused way has enabled me to invest more time in my body and the benefits are beginning to speak for themselves.  

After years of struggling with so many ailments I would strongly recommend Sarah to anyone who wants to see and feel the benefits of nutritional therapy.

What is Hypnotherapy and can it help me ?

Literally, it is therapy carried out using hypnosis, utilising many ideas, techniques from psychotherapy, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP).

Hypnosis is simply a natural state of heightened awareness that occurs whenever a person becomes deeply relaxed or highly focused. We generally experience this altered, trance-like state when we concentrate deeply on something, like reading an interesting book or even when we are just day-dreaming.
Far from the practises of stage hypnotists clinical hypnotherapists use hypnosis for therapeutic applications, and can help people to overcome and control a range of issues and problems.
The key to Hypnosis is the ability to get in touch with your unconscious mind.
Immediately prior to reading this, you were probably not aware of the feeling of your feet on the ground or your back on the chair,……………...now you are !

Such is the power of the unconscious mind, which also controls sensations, feelings, and body functions, it can communicate with every cell in your body, without recourse to your conscious mind.
Hypnotherapy can help a wide range of issues, from the ability to stop smoking, controlling your weight so you are happy with your body, Anxiety and Panic attacks, Phobias, recovering from injury and illness, Addictions, Concentration and enhancement of skills.

£50 per session. Smoking cessation sessions require a double session.
NHS staff receive a 30% discount (£35).

Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese healing art, a physical therapy which supports and strengthens the body’s natural ability to heal and balance itself. It works on the whole person, the physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual.

It is based on traditional Chinese medicine, with influences from recent Western therapies. Shiatsu means ‘finger pressure’ in Japanese, the practitioner uses touch, comfortable pressure and soft manipulative techniques which adjust the body’s physical structure and balance its energy flow. A deeply relaxing experience, regular treatments can alleviate stress and illness and maintain health and well-being.  It can help in a wide range of conditions, from specific injuries to more general symptoms of poor health. You remain fully clothed at all times. Shiatsu takes place on a padded mat at floor level, although it is possible to receive Shiatsu whilst seated.
