 Gecko therapy
At Gecko we believe in fitness for both mind and body. If the mind is tired, then so is
the body. Our sports therapy
team are experienced and professionally qualified to delivery sports
massage therapy.
Sports massage
This technique is used for sports' injuries and general aches and
pains caused by strains and sprains. Massage, flexibility and
strength exercises are given to return the client's injured muscles to
full function. Attention is also paid to cardiovascular fitness and
proprioception.
"The
sports massage and follow up advice that I have received from Gecko
over the last few months has resulted in a marked improvement in my
general flexibility. I am at the stage in my life where fitness is
really important to me and I am delighted with the outcome of my treatment
and personal training programme"

Aromatherapy
Quaint as a herb garden may be today, to the medieval gardener it was
the household medicine chest, providing prevention as well as cure.
There has been something of a resurgence of interest and respect for the
'natural way' and Gecko Therapy now offers a full array of aromatherapy
treatments.
This massage is used to treat skin, circulatory, respiratory and
digestive problems as well as stress, migraines, depression and
insomnia. It has also been found to be beneficial in treating M.E.
(Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). The combination of oils used is
specifically chosen for each client - ie grapefruit for aches and
pains or lavender for stress.
Deskbound massage
This is designed to alleviate the effects of spending long hours
seated at a desk in front of a computer. The fifteen minute
treatment is carried out on a special chair in the client's office.
The chair allows the therapist easy access to the upper back, shoulders,
neck, arms and hands. The techniques used will reduce tension in
these areas.
Gecko is also able to offer physiotherapy and osteopathy
treatments through an associate.
