Are you the owner of Gemma Miles Soft Tissue Therapy?
Gemma Miles Soft Tissue Therapy is a renowned sports massage therapist and physical therapy clinic located in Reading, New Zealand. Led by Gemma Clare Miles, a qualified and experienced soft tissue therapist, the clinic specialises in providing relief from injuries, chronic pain, and women's health issues.
Gemma's approach to therapy focuses on helping patients understand and trust their bodies, enabling them to move more freely and confidently away from pain. She incorporates movement and activity into each treatment plan, empowering patients to take control of their own body and recovery.
One of Gemma's specialities is working with women's health issues, such as pelvic floor dysfunction. Whether it's experiencing leakage during sneezing or laughing, dealing with a prolapse, or needing assistance with healing abdominal separation or surgical scars, Gemma can help. Her approach is tailored to each individual's needs and may involve hands-on manual therapy, Pilates, and other exercise work that can be practised at home. This ensures that the benefits of each session are maintained for longer periods, reducing the risk of future injuries or relapses into pain.
Gemma's own journey in the field of soft tissue therapy stems from a 20-year career in IT. She understands the demands of a busy life, as she balances her work with taking care of her young son and new baby girl, who was born on New Year's Eve in 2021. She shares her love for dancing with her husband, who is a ballroom dance teacher in Henley.
At Gemma Miles Soft Tissue Therapy, clients can expect a range of services designed to aid in their healing process. Gemma is highly qualified and experienced, holding insurance and registration with the Institute for Sport and Remedial Massage (ISRM) and the Global Hypopressives Alliance (GHA).
Individual one-on-one sessions and classes are available to meet the unique needs of each client. The treatment plans offered by Gemma can combine various services, including injury rehabilitation, clinical sport and remedial massage, Pilates, and hypopressives.
For those undergoing injury rehabilitation or post-operation recovery, Gemma provides the necessary support to ensure the body heals effectively and regains lost strength. This includes a combination of soft tissue techniques and monitored rehabilitation work, as well as emotional support during this potentially frustrating period.
Gemma also specialises in providing relief from postural issues and repetitive strain injuries through clinical sport and remedial massage. These issues, often caused by our modern lifestyle, can lead to discomfort and pain. Gemma relieves these symptoms and educates patients on preventive measures to avoid their return in the long term.
Additionally, Gemma offers Pilates classes that focus on improving core strength and posture rehabilitation. Whether you prefer one-on-one sessions or small group classes, Gemma's Clinical Pilates classes are designed to enhance postural alignment, relieve pain, and increase speed and endurance for sports performance.
Another service provided by Gemma is hypopressives, a technique that restores pelvic floor health and posture. The technique incorporates breathing and postural work and is commonly used in mainland Europe as a postnatal rehabilitation programme for new mothers. Gemma's clients who have been trained in hypopressives report significant improvements in pelvic floor issues such as stress and urge incontinence, diastasis recti, and prolapse.
Maintaining optimal health and well-being is a priority at Gemma Miles Soft Tissue Therapy. Whether you're seeking relief from pain, recovering from an injury, or looking to improve your overall fitness and strength, Gemma and her team are committed to providing personalised care and supporting you on your wellness journey.
