Ep26 Gillian Greig, BsC, CMT is a Masso-Kinesitherapist specializing in the causes of chronic pain. Postural analysis, palpation and manual therapy are used to understand and release tension and restrictions that are uncovered. Treatment plans are focused on relieving the pain permanently and on treating the whole person rather than just symptoms. She provides every client with an individualized and effective clinical massage treatment plan by relieving the actual causes of the problem rather than just temporarily soothing the symptoms. The foundation of her work is based on her many years of experience as a therapist, her close to 2000 hours of training as well as her understanding of the inter-connectivity and functionality of the human body. At Kinesense, Gillian relieves chronic pain conditions and release restrictions in movement with a holistic approach focusing on the source of the problem and not just on the symptoms that are a result. Restrictions and adhesions in muscles, joints and in deep tissues are treated with therapeutic massage, passive and active stretching and movements as well as with other kinesthetic and neuro-muscular methods. Using this approach, not only are the immediate symptoms relieved but the stimulation and re-education of the nervous system lead to long-lasting relief. Somatic awareness, good breathing techniques and postural analysis are other integral elements in the sessions. Simple exercises and other lifestyle modifications are suggested as ways to reinforce the progress made during the session.
