Acupressure Massage for muscle tension by Adrian Pop at Chelsea Natural Health Clinic, Fulham Rd., Sw10

If you spend your working day seated at a desk, being aware of your posture and dealing with minor problems with your back, arms and hands is very important, as this can prevent more serious problems developing long term.

Acupressure massage works by applying pressure instead of needles on the energy points that can be found all along the meridians or energy lines of the body. Applying pressure on these points removes energy blockages by diffusing the toxic build up that accumulates in the muscle tissues. The accumulation of toxins causes stiffness throughout the body which puts abnormal pressure on nerves and blood and lymph vessels

Benefits of Acupressure massage are:

•  Alleviates muscular tension found in the neck and shoulders caused by long hours at the computer.

• Relief from Backache, Repetitive strain injury and Accumulated tension

• Stimulates endorphins, the body’s natural feel good chemicals.

• Helps to boost the immune and circulatory systems

• Helps to relieve stress and tension headaches and the effects of eye strain

Book your treatment with Adriana on Saturdays from 11am to 6pm.

Adriana is a Registered Reflexologist, Acupressure Therapist, Indian Head Massage Therapist and Thai Yoga Massage Therapist. She has worked as a holistic health practitioner for 8 years with therapeutic experience in various environments, from Central London clinics as: Relax in Picadilly Circus; Reflexions in Chelsea and Bayswater; Panakeia in Sloane Square, to different offices as theWarner Brother Studio, McCann Erickson, Bell Pottinger, Lewis SilkIn, Defra, Greenlight Research, IPG, Momentum, KBH Media.

After gaining a Master’s Degree in Molecular Biology and working as a teacher and biology researcher for four years, in her mid twenties Adriana was first introduced to the Complementary Medicine way of thinking. She then decided to approach life from a different perspective, a more humanistic one. This, combined with a strong will to join the alternative healthcare field, led her to Peterson School of Reflexology, where she studied Reflexology for two years. From then on, her training uniquely blended Western and Eastern medicine and included extensive hands-on teaching. She then continued with courses in various kinds of massage, starting with the pressure points (Touch Pro), then the Indian head massage and with the Thai yoga massage (Howard Evans Therapy). Through each one of these types of massage Adriana has learnt different knowledge in working with the body, in opening, freeing and balancing the body’s channels of energy and life.
At the moment she is running an on-site-massage company called Acupress, as well as working at the Chelsea Natural Health Clinic. Her hands-on technique tends to be firm, but she is happy to adjust to the client’s requirements, or in-the-moment needs of each session. Adriana’s professional approach is one of openness, clarity and warmth. She has a passion for focussing on bodily experience and its process of regaining balance, relaxation, health and a safe and comfortable letting-go of the daily stresses and anxieties we encounter, also a passion for being in the present moment in therapy sessions. She has been a member of the London Complimentary Therapists Association since 2001 and works within their codes of conduct. The therapies she practices can alleviate and aid: stress, anxiety, asthma, diabetes, tinnitus, back problems, muscle tension…

Reflexology, Massage, Acupressure and Indian Head Massage

Adriana has joined the ever-growing team of practitioners here at Chelsea Natural Health, offering……

CHAIR MASSAGE: is an effective form of massage, which is done through clothing, on a specially designed portable chair, which is quick and easy to set up. The treatment covers head, neck, shoulders, back, arms and hands and may be adapted to special needs. The advantage of this massage over the conventional massage is that leaves you feeling awake and alert to carry on with your daily activities yet totally relaxed and rejuvenated.

REFLEXOLOGY: works on acupressure points on feet and hands in order to stimulate the body’s own healing and balancing system.

INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE: involves a gentle, soothing and rhythmical massage of the neck, shoulders, scalp and face helping to relieve headaches, eye strain and tension.

THAI YOGA MASSAGE: works to stimulate, open and balance the flow of energy through the Sen lines to assist the body in its natural tendency towards self healing. The massage works by using rhythmic manipulation, passive stretches, mobilization of joints and applied yoga. Thai yoga massage is practised on the floor and you will need to wear loose, comfortable clothing. This form of massage is highly beneficial particularly for anyone suffering from circulatory problems, lack of joint mobility, muscular stiffness and stress.
