Touch Physique Therapies Making posture and movement easier with muscle and soft tissue therapies.

I am seeking one more participant for my Oncology Scar Work therapy case studies.
If you are experiencing issues with scars, such as tightness, puckering, cording, or restricted movement,
If you have pain, sensitivity, or raised, wide scars, you may benefit from this therapy.
Scar therapy uses specialised massage and stretching techniques, along with self-care guidance, to support recovery.

Both old and new oncology scars are eligible.
New scars must be at least 8 weeks old and require consultant approval. Participants will receive two complimentary therapy sessions in a confidential, supportive, and professional environment. I am qualified in scar therapy and manual lymphatic drainage, with extensive experience in hands-on therapies. My priority is to ensure you feel comfortable and well cared for throughout the process.

If you are interested in participating, please contact me directly by email. Your involvement would be greatly appreciated.

Fascia is the vital environment surrounding every cell in our body; it serves as the transport highway for essential substances to flow in and out. This remarkable connective tissue envelops, infuses, and protects all other tissues and organs, enabling us to move freely and gracefully without pain. With its two main components, elastin and collagen, fascia embodies both strength and flexibility. It responds to internal and external forces while providing crucial protection. Yet, when faced with trauma and poor postural habits, fascia can become hardened, develop scars, and form tension lines. Embrace the power of fascia, and you unlock the potential for movement and vitalityFascia is the crucial environment that surrounds every single cell in our body, acting as the essential transport highway for key substances to flow in and out. This extraordinary connective tissue envelops, infuses, and protects all other tissues and organs, allowing us to move freely and effortlessly without pain. Composed of elastin and collagen, fascia strikes an incredible balance of strength and flexibility. It not only responds to internal and external forces but also plays a vital role in our protection. However, when confronted with trauma and poor postural habits, fascia can harden, develop scars, and create tension lines. By understanding and caring for our fascia, we unleash the full potential for movement and overall vitality. Embrace this powerful connection to enhance your well-being and enhance the quality of your life.

Bowen Therapy — What's it like?
1. Gentle but not Weak
Bowen doesn’t push, pull, or crack bones, but it signals the body to self-correct.
Think of it like nudging your body’s reset button rather than forcing a change.
2. Works Deeply
Even though the moves are soft, they reach fascial layers, muscles, and the nervous system.
These subtle cues can trigger big changes in tension, alignment, and pain.
3. Comparable Examples
Like turning a dimmer switch instead of flipping a light on/off — small input, smooth adjustment.
Or stretching gently after sitting all day — the movement feels small, but the body responds strongly.
4. Real Results
Many people notice:
Reduced pain
Better posture
More energy
Improved mobility
Often within a session or a few days, even though the technique feels light = “Small moves, big results.”

“When pain is always a pain,” it’s not just a physical statement—it touches on chronic pain, emotional fatigue, and how persistent discomfort can dominate life.
⭐ You can’t always control whether pain shows up…
Pain is a protective signal.
You can’t flip a switch and make that disappear.

What Happens If We Don’t Address It
Compensation can cause:
• New pain in previously healthy areas
• Muscle imbalances (some overwork, others weaken)
• Joint wear-and-tear due to inefficient loading
• Reduced mobility and flexibility
• Chronic pain cycles

Essentially, you don’t just keep the original problem—you gain new ones.

Why They’re Hard to Notice
Because compensations:
• Feel instinctive
• Reduce pain short-term
• Become habits
• Are reinforced by the nervous system as “safe” movement

Most people don’t notice them until another area starts hurting.
Getting treatment is usually the best step when pain is persistent, recurring, or affecting your daily life. But the “treatment” doesn’t have to be extreme or invasive—it can be targeted, gradual, and strategic.
It doesn’t always mean the pain disappears entirely, but it stops controlling your life and stops causing new problems.

Imagine having a deep tissue massage if you have this posture.....muscles relax, so what happens next??
well, put it this way, those muscles are doing a job to hold back the upper posture, imagine relaxing that 'scaffolding' - the body innate intelligence doing what it needs to do. Why would I just do a deep tissue massage to relax the muscles???
Working on the whole structure when it comes to therapy, because all of the body’s systems work together. No system functions entirely on its own. The human body is an interconnected network where each system depends on others to maintain balance (homeostasis) and keep you alive.systems of the body

Would you just settle for a deep tissue massage if you had weak glutes?
Would you be happy if the symptoms of weak glutes was treated only?
Would you not prefer a more in-depth approach to pain?

“Weak glutes” means your gluteal muscles (the muscles in your buttocks — gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus) are underactive, underdeveloped, or not firing properly during movement. This can lead to a range of problems including:
🚨 Common Signs of Weak Glutes
Low back pain (your back compensates for your glutes)
Knee pain or instability
Poor posture or anterior pelvic tilt
Hip pain or tight hip flexors
Reduced athletic performance (especially in running, jumping, or squatting)
One side weaker than the other (pelvic drop when walking)

At Touch Physique Therapies, I always look at the 'WHY' why the pain. Muscle testing and activating the glutes for long term results!

Knee replacement?

Joint arthroplasty is one of the most common modern operations in orthopedics and traumatology. Physiotherapy and rehabilitation are the final phase of the endoprosthesis and are of great importance both for the rate and for the extent of functional recovery. DEEP OSCILLATION® is a patented therapeutic procedure using resonant vibrations of tissues with minimal external mechanical effect and proven analgesic, antifibrotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory effect.
Aim of the study: To investigate the effect of deep oscillations and kinesitherapy on the reduction of edema, reduction of pain syndromes and restoration of the range of motion in patients after knee joint arthroplasty.
Materials and methods: The study was conducted on 106 patients -38 men and 66 women randomly assigned to 2 groups - experimental group (EG) with 56 patients and control group (CG) with 50 patients, all after knee joint arthroplasty.
Results: Our preliminary results indicate that there are significant differences in the recovery of patients in EG and CG. Patients who have a deep oscillation procedure are recovering faster and better, both in terms of subjective complaints and in terms of the monitored functional parameters (p

Knee replacement?
Speed Up Your Knee Recovery with Deep Oscillation Therapy.

✅ Reduce swelling
✅ Relieve post-op pain
✅ Improve range of motion
📊 In studies (e.g., Schuknecht et al., 2009), patients had significantly faster oedema reduction postoperatively with DOT compared to standard therapy.
Deep Oscillation acts like a deep, rhythmic internal massage that helps the knee heal faster, hurt less, and move better, without putting stress on the new joint. The effect is mechanical but gentle, so it can be applied even in the early postoperative phase when stronger manual therapy would be contraindicated.

⚕️ Potential Benefits After Knee Replacement
Clinical and anecdotal reports suggest DOT may:
• Reduce postoperative oedema (swelling)
• Decrease pain and bruising
• Accelerate lymphatic drainage
• Improve range of motion (ROM)
• Facilitate tissue healing and scar softening
• Reduce stiffness and enhance mobility in early rehab.

Deep oscillation devices are used in many NHS hospitals and private clinics for the treatment and management of conditions like lymphedema. It’s the gentle boost your knee needs for a smoother recovery.

⚠️ Contraindications
DOT should not be used if:
• There is infection, thrombosis, or bleeding tendency
• The patient has an electronic implant (e.g., pacemaker)
• There are malignant tumours in the treatment area
• The surgical wound is not fully closed or healed
