Hellerwork is a therapy that combines deep tissue massage, body alignment and movement education as well as discussion. The aim is to improve your posture as well as reduce mental a physical stress.

Deep Tissue Massage – the aim of this part of the therapy is to release the tension the builds up in the muscles. The belief is that tension and stress will accumulate in the muscles which will cause the body to shorten and stiffen. By releasing this tension it will allow the body to return to its natural state.

Movement Education – this will teach the patient the correct movement to make to ensure the body remains balanced and correctly aligned.

Discussion – the aim of the discussion section is to teach the patient the relationships between emotions, attitudes and the body. Each discussion will focus on the area of the body that is being worked on.

People that undergo Hellerwork will experience improved posture as well as reduced stress. Specific conditions that Hellerwork has improved include chronic backache, neck ache, shoulder pain, and joint pain as well as repetitive stress injuries, including carpal tunnel syndrome.
