Clinical massage is a type of massage that focuses on Fascia or Connective tissue, which is where injuries to muscle tend to show up first. Fascia is the complex soft tissue webbing which holds us all together. It is normally a very thin, moist layer of connective tissue which is wrapped around muscles, around individual muscle fibres allowing them to slide over one another. When muscle tissue is over stretched, the fascia that binds or connects them will also be overstretched and will tear. This will create scar tissue which can bind the fascia to adjacent structures.

Traditional Chinese and Five-Element Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a traditional medicine which has been used in the East for thousands of years to restore, promote and maintain good health. Taking a holistic approach, acupuncture regards illness as a sign that the body is out of balance, the exact pattern and degree of imbalance being unique to each individual. By inserting fine needles into the meridians beneath the skin, acupuncture stimulates the body's own healing response. Acupuncture can be effective treatment for many conditions, including gastro-intestinal, skin, respiratory and musculo-skeletal – in May 2009 NICE recommended acupuncture for back pain relief. Acupuncture and Acupressure Massage are also very effective treatments for depression.
