Meet some of the rest of our team…

Dawn Aiken, physiotherapist and acupuncturist

In 1996 I worked in the NHS with a physiotherapist who was also an acupuncturist.  Her patients always seemed to achieve very positive outcomes which inspired me to train in acupuncture.

In recent years I have developed my experience by attending courses with Dr Richard Tan from San Diego (originally from China).  Dr Tan teaches how to “calculate” exactly what acupuncture points to use for each individual.  It is a bit like a mathematical equation or a Sudoku puzzle.  It is not a magic wand however it is an extremely effective treatment tool.

Dr. Tan is known in the acupuncture community as the practitioner who gets « instant results » after needle insertion. Thanks to his live demonstrations in class, thousands of practitioners (and patients!) enjoy the same immediate results daily.

As well as treating joint and muscle pain, acupuncture can benefit more general conditions such as headaches, vertigo, tinnitus, sinusitis and many disorders caused by stress.

What Are the Benefits of Pilates Reformer Exercises?

The reformer offers all the famous benefits of Pilates including overall strength, flexibility, coordination, and balance. These things in turn lead to daily life improvements like better posture, graceful, efficient movement, and for many, relief from pain associated with physical imbalances such back pain

 

The reformer is large enough to accommodate full-range motion which is wonderful for increasing flexibility while building strength. The exercises provide enough resistance and movement variety to help build strong bones

The instability of a rolling carriage with the springs set at different levels of resistance provides all kinds of stability challenges that develop core strength and promote better balance. The stronger core, the better the balance, posture, and overall well-being.

Exercising with the reformer is possible for anyone, at any level of fitness. It’s no wonder the full name of the reformer is the Universal Reformer.
