Myofascial Bodywork

Myofascial Bodywork is a specialist hands-on treatment method to help improve your sense of wellbeing, your ease of movement and to help you find relief from pain.
 
It is a highly effective and long-lasting way to address acute or chronic musculoskeletal complaints, to restore lost mobility, dexterity and coordination.  Treatment involves the use of touch and small guided movements to restore tissue and joint mobility, to normalise sensation and to settle nervous system responses. 

Myofascial bodywork is a stand-alone treatment. It can also be integrated  with massage, trigger point therapy or scar therapy as a powerful intervention to improve wellbeing.

Scar Therapy

Scar Therapy, also known as scar massage, is a gentle non-invasive physical therapy method developed to treat scar tissue, fibrosis and adhesions. Treatment is applied directly to your scar and the surrounding areas to help stimulate the scar and the underlying tissue, focusing on reducing any issues related to your surgery or from radiotherapy such as:

• Post-surgery pain and sensitivity
• Limited movement or tightness
• Pulling or puckering
• Fibrous scar tissue or scar adhesions

The treatment is suitable for scars relating to both oncology and other surgeries. Home care advice for early scar healing and ongoing self-care supports your recovery.

Restorative Massage &
Trigger Point Therapy

Whether you are in need of quiet, flowing relaxation or deep, focused precision, restorative massage combines the art of great bodywork with the knowledge and science behind it. There is no set routine to follow, your treatment will be created in response to your individual goals.

Trigger points may feel like 'knots' in your muscle but are in fact small areas of tightly contracted muscle fibre.  Very often a trigger point refers sensation to other parts of the body. This concept is important because the source of your pain is not always where you feel it.
 
Massage and trigger point therapy can be combined as an effective treatment for musculoskeletal issues.

About

Clare Goddard

Over the years that I have been treating people I have learnt that the best way that I can help is to offer my time, and in that time give the treatment most needed by you. The approach that we take will be guided uniquely by your aims - treating not just your body but the person within it.

Your treatment might be deep and direct, it might be subtle and receptive. The goal is to listen - both to what you say and with my hands - and so to be in tune with you, responding and treating to bring the improvements that you seek.
​
From the outset I have sought training and experience with the very best international teachers.  I am Faculty Assistant at advanced-trainings.com USA, delivering training to other therapists around the world.  Every year I enjoy working on  my own personal development, taking time out to refine my skills and find new ways to help the people who come to my clinic.

T E S T I M O N I A L S

I’ve always been fit and active but  had ten years where my active time was severely limited.  As a result I was suffering from back pain and a loss of flexibility, mobility and range of movement; even to the point that I couldn’t straighten my left side fully.
Clare has been the consummate professional in helping me deal with these problems to the point that I can now run, cycle, box and do gym work with nothing more than the ‘usual pain’ you’d associate with these activities.
Clare is practical and constructive and has brilliant communication skills.  She listens well and puts great effort into using her wealth of knowledge to explain what she thinks is happening. When the answers haven’t been obvious she’s been diligent and spent her own time doing research; she has an extraordinary network of professionals to call on.  Time, care and consideration, thoughtfulness, a wealth of knowledge and a deep level of understanding coupled with great listening and communicating skills; just some of the things that make Clare such an outstanding practitioner.

I had been looking for an expert in Myofascial Technique since moving to the area in 2018. Someone recommended Clare and since my first appointment I knew I had found someone with not only expert knowledge but an expert eye and touch. Clare is an exceptional talent, her knowledge of the body and how to release aches and pains is outstanding, each and every treatment is highly individual. The logistics are easy, the booking system is on-line, parking is directly outside the clinic and the treatment room is light quiet and spacious. When I've had a treatment from Clare I walk out floating on air.
