How does it work?
The EMMETT Technique is based on the belief that light touch can trigger a relaxation response in the soft tissue of the body, and the therapist may help relieve tensions resulting in feelings of improved comfort within the body.
It may be enjoyed by people of all ages, from babies to the elderly. Many people find they feel more at ease within their body and they feel that their emotional well-being is enhanced.
Symptoms that may be assisted
The technique can be used on areas such as back, abdomen, hips, legs, knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, arm, hand and neck.
The relaxing nature of the technique results in people reporting typical responses such as: improved comfort and ease, more restful sleep, enhanced mood and a sense of lightness within their body.
What should you expect?
You may be asked some questions about your general health and the reason for your visit. Treatments may be done while you are fully clothed, although some garments may need to be removed or loosened. While individual experiences may vary, relief is often instantaneous.
