Therapies and Holistic Practices

Myheadspace is a complementary health care service at mab Islington which offers professional acupuncture and massage to individuals and businesses.

John’s approach to musculoskeletal problems involves using many of his skills. Treatment will involve fascia release, massage and acupuncture to relieve pain and tension.

Massage-type techniques are employed to coax muscles in spasm to relax. Chronically tense muscles restrict blood flow and fatigue the body. By applying gentle pressure and stretching movements to connective tissues or fascia, normal alignment and function can be restored and chronic pain eliminated. Developed in the late 1960s by John Barnes, Myofascial Release can treat neck and back pain, headaches and recurring sports injuries, among other conditions.

Acupuncture has been used for centuries to treat and prevent disease. It is recognised world-wide for its ability to effectively treat a wide variety of disorders naturally and with virtually no side effects. Back pain is one of many conditions that responds well to acupuncture. While there is no definitive way to resolve lower back pain, the use of acupuncture to treat this condition has increased dramatically over the past few years, based mainly on placebo-controlled trials that have validated it as a reliable method of pain relief.
