Emmett Technique
The Emmett Technique relies upon an understanding of the body’s response to light touch. It has been suggested that the body reacts in a similar way to the workings of a touch-screen. Small sensors allow access to the brain via a therapist’s touch. These points have the ability to reset the memory programme and create effective muscle actions through memory recalibration.
Emmett is truly a complementary therapy. It may be applied in isolation but it also combines easily with all other bodywork and exercise specialities such as massage, chiropractic, physiotherapy, Bowen therapy, craniosacral therapy, yoga, Pilates and personal training as some typical examples.
Low Level Laser Therapy
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is also now known as Photobiomodulation which more accurately describes its action within the body.
Essentially it involves the modulation of cellular activity through the controlled delivery of light to area to be treated.
The physiological responses to LLLT involve stimulation of the body’s natural healing processes, optimises repair and helps to restore normal cellular function in the target area. There appears to be a healing response, a pain relief response and an immune boosting response.
