Therapy Approach
The Perrin Technique
The Perrin Technique treatment uses an
osteopathic approach designed to manually
stimulate motion of the fluid around the brain
and spinal cord to encourage better drainage
of the lymphatic system. It involves gentle
manipulation of the soft tissues and
massaging the head, neck, back and chest
areas. This promotes healthier functioning of
the sympathetic nervous system and the
lymphatic system which together helps to
alleviate physical symptoms and stressors.
Providing the patient doesn’t have significant
extra stressors over time they should
gradually improve and many return to full
health.
The first session is a 90 minute consultation,
followed by a second 60 minutes session
where there is a self massage techniques
demonstration. From the 3rd appointment
we advise weekly 30 minute sessions upon
starting treatment for the first 8-12 weeks.
Osteopathic diagnosis involves examining
muscles and joints using touch, observing
posture and the patient’s range of
movements to detect and diagnose any
abnormalities within the musculoskeletal
system.
Osteopathy treatment includes a combination
of muscle and connective tissue stretching,
joint articulation, gentle traction and
manipulation, deep tissue massage,
myofascial release, cranial techniques,
exercise and postural advice depending on
what the individual requires. Through these
techniques osteopathy aims to increase the
mobility of joints, relieve soft muscle tension,
enhance blood supply and drainage to the
body’s tissues to allow the body to heal.
Osteopathy sessions are either 45 minutes or
60 minutes for an initial appointment, with 30
minute follow ups.
