Mickey has well over 30 years of experience treating people helping to alleviate their pain. Pain can for example be caused by muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints fascia but to really understand pain the assessment has to be so much deeper. The body can hold onto physical trauma for years if not processed, there may be an emotional tension or even an energetic issue.

No individual is the same and Mickey will combine physiotherapy, craniosacral therapy, abdominal sacral massage, knowledge of chakras and meridians with other energetic and spiritual tools.

What happens within a treatment session?

There is an initial consultation to determine the problem and how it is affecting your life. The physical assessment will involve looking at your posture, movement, muscle lengths and muscle strength/control. Through touch there can not only be a further investigation of physical tensions within the body but also assessment of energetic and emotional components. 

Treatment normally involves a combination of Mickey’s skills, from massage, joint techniques, ultrasound (where indicated), fascial techniques, craniosacral therapy, abdominal sacral massage and other energetic healing techniques. Mickey also provides patient specific home exercises, such as pilates, Qigong, theraband resistance training, foam rolling, specific stretches or maybe a tailored strengthening programmes always with advice on self management and more.

Cost: £110 for 90 minute session

A Craniosacral therapist can feel the very subtle craniosacral motion in the body. At the core of the body there is a tide like ebb and flow of the cerebrospinal fluid which bathes and cushions the brain and spinal cord.

Any stresses or strains can cause the body’s tissues to contract. This will consequently effect the way that the body functions and may result over the years in physical or emotional problems.
These restrictions show up in the way the craniosacral motion is expressed and can be released by the use of craniosacral therapy.
Craniosacral therapy enhances natural healing and the body’s ability to release and move on.
Craniosacral therapy may assist almost any condition, by assisting in the balance of the body, raising the vitality and enabling the body’s own self-healing processes to be utilised. In fact you don’t have to be ill to gain benefit.

Abdominal sacral massage is a sensitively applied massage to the abdomen and then the sacral area. Just the stomach and lower back area are exposed during massage and cotton sheeting using to protect clothing from any wax or cream used in the massaging process.

The massage helps by bringing the organs within the abdominal area back into alignment, releasing pressure and strengthening the surrounding muscles and ligaments. This in turn will improve blood, nerve and lymph flow throughout the tissues.
In addition, the deep colon massage helps to loosen harden debris (that has been living in your gut for years) and encourages a natural movement.
