Acupuncture, acupressure, Chinese massage, Shiatsu

Acupuncture When energy (Qi) is flowing through the body, the body functions well. When Qi becomes blocked, organ function is impaired and symptoms of illness appear. Gentle stimulation, through the insertion of a fine needle, at precise acupuncture points when applied on the basis of a correct diagnosis, will aid the body's own self healing system.
(extract: www.anta.com.au)

Acupressure works on the same principle as acupuncture but the stimulation of the acupuncture point is with the fingers or thumb, rather than the fine needle. Acupressure can be performed through loose clothing or combined with Chinese massage.
(extract: www.massagetherapy.com )

Shiatsu A Japanese therapy (literal translation is 'finger pressure'). The aim of the treatment is to normalise the flow of energy (Ki) in the body by applying pressure to obstructed or weak areas - note the Japanese word and Chinese word for energy are very similar - Ki and Qi. Shiatsu calms the body giving it time to heal itself and improve circulation generally and to specific areas. Shiatsu is done through loose clothing, no oil is used.

Bowen, ear (Auriculotherapy) reflexology, foot reflexology, lymphatic drainage, myofascial release, remedial massage,  trigger point therapy

Bowen An extremely gentle and very relaxing remedial body therapy. Bowen assists the body's own healing to achieve balance and harmony resulting in relief from pain and discomfort. Bowen therapy can be done through loose clothing and does not use oil. The treatment comprises sequences of small gentle movements, each at a specific site on the body. The movements are light cross-fibre maneuvering of a muscle, tendon or ligament.
(extract: www.bowen.asn.au)

 Foot reflexology dates back 5,000 years and was used in ancient China and India. Also called foot zone therapy - based on the premise that energy flows through the body in meridians from the brain to the feet. Every organ and cell has a representative point on the foot. Pressure is applied to areas of the feet to restore balance and facilitate the body to heal.

(extract: www.massagetherapy.com)

Myofascial slow and gentle application of sustained pressure and movement into the fascial system in order to eliminate fascial restrictions. Fascia is the connective tissue that covers muscles in the body.  This technique can be combined with an oil massage or performed through loose clothing. (extract:  www.massagetherapy.com )

Remedial massage incorporates a combination of massage techniques and is specifically used to alleviate discomfort arising from acute or chronic conditions. This massage uses oil. (extract:  www.anta.com.au )

Trigger point therapy applies pressure to sensitive areas to reduce pain and alleviate muscle spasms. This technique is usually combined with an oil massage. (extractwww.massagetherapy.com )
