COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES in Jersey

At The Wellness Centre (Castle Quay), we provide a host of complementary therapies to help our patients with their health & wellbeing goals.

Ayurvedic Massage

In our fast-paced lives, it’s crucial to carve out moments of tranquillity to maintain balance and health. Ayurvedic massage, also known as Abhyanga, is grounded in the principles of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medical system. These massage techniques seek to harmonize the body’s energy and enhance overall wellness. Ayurvedic massage utilizes specific oils, rhythmic strokes, and targeted pressure points to activate the body’s natural healing processes.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a therapeutic and deeply relaxing holistic therapy performed on the feet and/or hands, using special techniques and manipulations applied to specific areas called reflex points. Reflexology can provide great benefits such as enhanced circulation, improved digestion, aid headaches and help with other problems linked to a stressful life when used alone or in conjunction with other treatments. Reflexology aims to treat the whole person rather than just the symptoms of disease, working on both a physical and emotional level and to induce a state of balance and harmony.

Medical Acupuncture

Medical acupuncture (or dry needling) is an effective and efficient modern treatment designed to ease muscular pain and myofascial dysfunction. It is a more recent form of Acupuncture which is very effective for relaxing overactive muscles, which contain trigger points. When performing Medical Acupuncture, your practitioner inserts acupuncture needles into your skin and “trigger points” in your muscle or tissue. The needles will remain in your skin only for a short period of time (minutes).

The main benefit of medical acupuncture is the relief from muscular pain and stiffness. Additionally, by dissolving trigger points the flexibility of a muscle is improved and general range of motion increased. In our experience, Medical Acupuncture is a great adjunct to Chiropractic Care and other physical therapies and is very useful in the treatment and management of sports injuries, muscle pain, fibromyalgia pain, back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, sciatica, headaches and arthritis.

Red Light Therapy

Bronzed Angel’s Mon Amie Red Light Therapy Bed is the only one of its type in Jersey and gives impressive results. This Collagen Bed has a mixture of (optional) UV and red-light therapy tubes. The red-light tubes promote collagen growth in the skin which improves skin elasticity and healing therefore improving overall skin condition and the signs of fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, stretch marks, eczema, psoriasis and acne. Recommended usage varies according to your goals.
