Massage therapies
Although most people associate massage with relaxation, the benefits of this widely used therapy are many and varied. Our fully qualified massage therapists are able to address a large variety of complaints. Therapeutic deep tissue or sports massage offers significant benefits for muscle rehabilitation, improvement of blood and lymph circulation, and reduction of joint stiffness. A relaxing Swedish-style massage, may help you release the physical and emotional stresses of modern day living. Acupuncture
Established many thousands of years ago, acupuncture is a widely used and well respected treatment. It is perhaps best known for providing relief of pain. However, acupuncture based on the traditional Chinese model can be of great help in the treatment of almost any health condition, whether acute or chronic. Nutritional Medicine
With the increasing scientific knowledge in the fields of diet and nutritional medicine, we can now appreciate how these factors profoundly influence our health, both in the short and long term. Furthermore, with skillful manipulation of diet and supplementation, a huge number of health disorders can be addressed effectively and safely. Diagnostic investigations
In some instances we may refer you for further investigations such as blood tests, scans, x-rays or ECG. Some diagnostic investigations are available at the centre. All the practitioners at the Bloomsbury Practice are highly qualified, registered and insured health professionals. There are both male and female practitioners available.
