Creating Healthier Lifestyles

Instead of predicting and choosing your own massage treatment, you now no longer need to figure out by yourself what’s best for your body. You can put all your worries to rest and trust the hands of your practitioner, as he creates the unique tailor made massage treatment that addresses your body’s individual needs, achieving ultimate relaxation and relief from aches and pains.

My therapist, Sherrylea Perera, who focuses mainly on postural concerns and muscular imbalances, starts with a full evaluation and assessment. The pain in my upper back and my shoulders is gone soon, as she applies deep tissue and myofascial techniques with added acupressure touches. And my cold hands automatically become warmer, as the massage improves my circulation. In no time I’m as chilled out as I haven’t been in months, and I walk away not only relaxed but with greater knowledge regarding the pain in my shoulders. Perera (who also covers specialized kinesiology and perinatal massage) is able to tell me exactly where the pain is coming from and how to deal with it, giving me useful stretching advice.

Sutherland-Chan makes it a priority that customers get the most out of their session, hiring only top quality registered massage therapists, of which many are flown in from overseas. Furthermore, the therapeutic massage can be as diverse and individual as our body types, applying methods of craniosacral therapy, Swedish massage, trigger point therapy, as well as lymphatic drainage to name a few. A treatment can address stress and anxiety, headaches and muscle pain, stiffness, injuries and much more. Some of their specialties are pregnancy, sports and rehabilitation (reducing swelling and scar tissue) massages, and their philosophy is to relax, recharge and revive, leaving you refreshed and energized – the ideal choice for a de-stressing session over lunch.
