Yoga
The ancient science of yoga is a holistic life system. Hatha yoga is the most widely known and practised type of yoga in the West. Asanas (postures) and pranayama (breath control) are for all ages and ability levels. Yoga is a non-competitive practice, each works to his/her own capacity.

Pilates
The Pilates method is not just a series of exercises, but a complete approach to developing body awareness and an easy physicality in day-to-day life. It requires com-mitment from both the instructor and the client as it takes time to improve and change the body's posture and alignment. Osteopaths, physiotherapists and general practitioners are now recommending Pilates as one of the safest forms of exercise today.

Khai-Bo
Khai Bo is an original non-contact aerobic martial arts workout. It combines the dynamic punching and kicking of oriental martial arts (tae Kwondo, karate, kung fu, muay thai etc) and western boxing. Khai Bo is not a sport or martial art, the instructor is not aiming to teach martial arts, self defence, or combat. Khai Bo uses basic technique, which is safe and simple to use without any martial arts or boxing experience.
Khai Bo generally uses the upper body more than the conventional aerobics or spinning class, this will help to improve muscular strength, endurance and tone.

Sports Injury Massage


Neuromuscular Treatment: Neuromuscular Therapy applies concentrated thumb/finger pressure to "trigger points" to break cycles of muscle spasm and pain and to improve general function. These points are painful irritated areas in muscle, congested spots of muscle tissue and areas of restricted blood flow; these can put pressure on nerves, which may radiate pain to other areas. Treatment helps to normalise and eliminate the dysfunction. The technique is often used in combination with other treatments such as those used in Remedial and Sports Massage.

Remedial/Sports Massage: Remedial massage is a holistic treatment; that is, a treatment for the whole of the body, as well as the area being treated. The primary aim of Remedial Massage is to find and treat the cause of the disorder, not only the symptoms. Remedial massage has short and long term effects on the body, bringing about the process of healing. It is one of the most effective and natural treatments for stress related conditions. Sports massage involves the manipulation of soft tissue for injury prevention and therapeutic purposes; it restores the normal functional activity of various structures around the body. By improving circulation the manipulation of injured tissues prevents adhesions forming, this in turn realigns scar tissue and aids a much quicker recovery time. People are often un- aware that sports massage is not just for sports people but also for persons with every day aches and pains.

Deep Swedish Massage: Swedish massage refers to a collection of techniques designed primarily to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart. Swedish massage can relax muscles, increase circulation, remove metabolic waste products, help the recipient obtain a feeling of connection and a better awareness of their body and the way they use and position it.
