At Nansledan Chiropractic we provide an holistic approach to healthcare and are delighted to be working with expert massage & Yoga therapists at Shiva Yoga & Pilates Studio. Mike may often refer a patient for massage / myofascial therapy when deeper soft tissue work is required after the structural elements of the presenting musculoskeletal complaint have been cleared. Also following Chiropractic care when looking at long term stability for the spine, Yoga & Pilates are excellent methods of improving core strength and flexibility.
It may also be the case whereby a patient requires a deeper soft tissue release before commencing Chiropractic care so that the structural manual work can be more easily completed.
Mara Blackburn is the somatic coach and massage therapist that works at Shiva Yoga & Pilates Studio.
Mara provides SOMARA Holistic Massage, Myofascial Therapy and private group yoga, soundbath and meditation.
Mara offers a holistic massage therapy service on Wednesday mornings, Friday afternoon / evening and Saturdays.
Massage can be based on a Ayurvedic approach or Swedish techniques. The massages offered are either a deep tissue sports massage or more gentle relaxing sessions and are priced at £60 for a 1 hour session.

NEW Myofascial therapy
The goal of myofascial therapy is to stretch and loosen the fascia so that it and other contiguous structures can move more freely, and the patient's motion is restored. For this reason, myofascial therapy is sometimes referred to as 'myofascial release' therapy.
It may also be referred to as 'myofascial trigger point therapy' by others. Myofascial therapy can also enhance or assist other treatments to increase their effectiveness, such as acupuncture, chiropractic manipulation, physical therapy, or occupational therapy.
Myofascial release therapy can also improve skeletal and muscular alignment prior to a surgery, or help athletes achieve better alignment prior to sports competitions. By targeting specific areas of the fascial system, myofascial therapy can help prepare patients for more aggressive forms of strengthening, or provide pain relief for patients with restricted flexibility and movement, thus allowing patients to return to normal movement and greater function
