A treatment at Natural Medical Clinic aims to create homeostasis in the body which improves you holistically.
With a trained eye, it can clearly be seen where the anatomy is compensating and being pulled out of alignment. By moving the body through mobilisation and release this results in improved clarification about the condition of your physical and internal condition.
During our time together your breath will deepen, making you feel more relaxed. Your heart rate will decrease, your feel-good hormones will increase and your circulation will become stronger, improving the complexion of your face, giving you an enhanced glow. Continue your treatments and you will not only feel improvements in your posture and joint strength but brighter nails, improved gut health and energy levels.
Having a 100% success rate on determining whether a client is a coffee drinker or not highlights the sensitivity from finger palpation. Over 6 years of meditating, practicing Qi Gong and being aware of the sensation underneath our skin has developed the ability to invigorate this same sensation in others. It is most rewarding when the connection is found, allowing the release of pain and tension. When the movement from the practitioner is undertaken with a relaxed pressure, you will feel at ease and comfortable with the release.
After a couple of years of back ache and related headaches, a few treatment and adjustment with Sarah cured the problem. As an added bonus, the terrible hangovers I used to get stopped when the neck ache was fixed! – Chris Cieslak
There was a time when my IBS was uncontrollable, period pain was debilitating, shoulder pain and neck pain was so annoying and psoriasis was frustratingly constant. Although it wasn’t the intention to start to study Japanese Natural Medicine to help cure all my symptoms it certainly came as a welcomed byproduct.
At every treatment we monitor your health, progression and can discuss personal ongoing improvements in your lifestyle to keep your symptoms at bay.
As a health practitioner, understanding the mind and body has come with part of the practice and letting go of negative attachments, habits and patterns help to heal physical and mental wellbeing.
With a wide smile, a big heart and an open mind, I welcome you to the Natural Medical Clinic.

Have you ever heard someone say ‘if you are in pain, punch somewhere else and make the pain go away?’ This is what doctors call ‘referred pain.’ The idea is similar to holistic massage, whereby, if for example, your hamstrings are tight they can become suppler with a massage to your lower back; this is because your hamstrings are connected to your pelvis, which joins to your spine and thus relaxing one area helps the other.
The spine is a very important part of your skeletal system and, therefore, the back is where we will most commonly massage. Massage is included in every treatment, along with acupuncture, physical therapy, cranial sacral therapy and visceral massage. If it is necessary to massage other areas of the body, instead of or as well as the back, we will do so in a direct approach as this is going to be more sustainable for the reduction of your symptoms.
Clients have reported reduced abdominal pain e.g. digestive issues after a holistic massage, less tension in their back neck and shoulders and feeling a sense of calmness. There are studies to support the positive effects of a holistic massage on the body’s immune system by stimulating the lymph nodes. It is also said to improve the condition of the body’s largest organ, your skin, by promoting tissue regeneration so reducing scar tissue and stretch marks. Also enhancing circulation by pumping oxygen and nutrients into your tissues and vital organs.
