Neuromuscular Therapy is a type of Remedial Massage which utilises a range of advanced massage techniques 

Rather than offering generic or relaxation massage, Rosamund Edwards of Be Vibrant Wellness in Oneroa, Waiheke Island only offers specific deep tissue massage and integrative bodywork to alleviate chronic tension and pain patterns. 

The approach includes:

• Checking posture and the specifics of your problems
• Checking tensions in the main muscles and their antagonists
• Myofascial release to re-set musculo-skeletal alignment
• Kinesiology techniques to test, tonify or relax muscles, along with heat and cool
• Accessing deep postural muscles and applying techniques such as trigger point therapy
• Checking health of respiratory muscles and breath patterning
• Awareness and treatment of key, but subtle and complex regions such as the pelvic floor, TMJ, anterior neck and throat.

Rosamund works holistically with your whole being to assist understanding and release of your muscular tension, trauma, and stuck emotional energy. She works by facilitating your mental & emotional connection to your body to enable deep relaxation and relief.

If there is a problem with your alignment, it can sap you of vitality because much of your energy is used in keeping you upright and moving forwards. Rosamund aims to find, and resolve, the root cause of the issue.

Your Neuromuscular Therapy session may include:

• discussion of your health history
• postural analysis
• muscle strength and stress tests
• advanced and targeted remedial (neuromuscular) massage therapy of the affected muscles and joints, including deep muscles that are often overlooked
• kinesiology-based tests and corrections
• myofascial release
• trigger point treatment
• cranial/ TMJ techniques
• diaphragm re-set
• hip flexor re-set
• a range of other techniques as required.

Rosamund is a diploma qualified, certified neuro-muscular therapist, massage therapist and kinesiologist.
