Dr Dominique Mallon (Kinesiologist)

Kinesiology is a non-evasive and relaxing treatment, which can help all aspects of the being, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. It uses muscle monitoring to access information about a person’s wellbeing and in turn allows the kinesiologist to become a facilitator of that healing energy to equalize any imbalances in the body. Kinesiology can help with many issues, including, pain, musculoskeletal issues, depression, anxiety, sleep problems, hormonal imbalances, nutritional issues, immune issues and much more. Dominique lives by the motto, ‘’a healthier happier you,’’ she believes if you are happy, you are healthy and vice versa, so it is a priority for everyone to put their health and happiness first.

Dr Nisha Ariyaratne (Remedial Massage Therapist)

Nisha has a strong passion for health, and views bodywork and massage as a valuable part of your ongoing health and self-care program. A treatment with her may include trigger point therapy, deep tissue work, basic cranio-sacral techniques, flower essence therapy, and hot stones.
