Stress & Tension

When stress lives in your body, hands-on treatment can help.

Chronic stress doesn't just affect your mind. It lives in your body. Tight shoulders, a clenched jaw, headaches, disturbed sleep and a constant sense of physical tension are all signs that your nervous system needs support.

Treated at Sherbourne House, Montmorency, serving Eltham, Greensborough, Bundoora and the Diamond Valley since 1995.

Osteopathy and remedial massage both have a direct effect on the autonomic nervous system, helping to shift the body out of a "fight or flight" state and into a state of rest and recovery. Manual therapy reduces cortisol, improves circulation and releases the physical holding patterns that stress creates.

Many patients find that regular treatment not only relieves physical symptoms but significantly improves their overall sense of wellbeing.
