Remedial Massage treats musculoskeletal conditions using deep tissue techniques, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release. Ideal for sports injuries, chronic pain, and postural imbalances, this service combines assessment-driven treatment plans with rehabilitation exercises. Clients benefit from improved mobility, reduced pain, and faster recovery times through tailored sessions addressing individual needs.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic services focus on spinal health through manual adjustments, low-force techniques, and soft tissue therapy. Tailored to address back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint issues, treatments aim to restore nervous system function and enhance overall well-being. Patients receive personalised care plans incorporating rehabilitation exercises and lifestyle advice for long-term health benefits.

Professional counselling addresses emotional challenges, stress, and mental health concerns through evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Specialising in support for women, children, couples, and individuals, sessions focus on improving self-esteem, managing anxiety, and resolving relationship conflicts. The service provides a safe, confidential space for clients to develop coping strategies and achieve personal growth.

The treatment integrates aromatherapy elements with essential oils, offering both physical and emotional benefits in a soothing environment.

What a great place for a deep massage. Being an older person I love that you are given a massage that relieves all you tensions and then go into see the Chiropractor to work on all of your joint pain. You wake up the next day feeling alive and free of pain. Thanks Rob and Anna.

Ive been going to Centre of Wellbeing on/off for the last 3-4 years, unfortunately it stops now due to poor service. I was told that I am putting the therapist at risk if I were to be seen, due to myself working during this pandemic and not self isolating or working from home. I was understanding at the start of this phone conversation, as everyone is entitled to their opinion - however... I then asked if he knew of any therapists around the area that would see me at this time - I was then given a lecture about how I shouldnt be seen by anyone, and if anyone did see me that they

Rob at Centre of Wellbeing is just fantastic. I've been a number of times now and the massages have really helped alleviate my pain & soreness. Whether it's from sitting long hours behind a desk or a sporting injury that needs attention, I know Rob and his team will have the right advice for me. It's not everyday you come across someone who is genuinely interested in your overall wellbeing. A real gentleman who aims to treat the symptom and not just a temporary fix. Keep up the excellent work.
