This type of therapy utilises our focus and awareness to bring about a change in our body. Often in chronic injury or pain there is a disconnection between our awareness and the body which results in inefficient use of muscles and more wear and tear on the body. Mindfulness Therapy uses the approach of mindfulness to bring your awareness back to the body to build new pathways and correct movement patterns.

The goal of the therapy is to reconnect with our deeper stabilising muscles and to strengthen these connections, this changes the recruitment pattern of our muscles which can bring a positive change towards recovery.

Mindfulness therapy is used in conjunction with other modalities of treatment such as traditional Physiotherapy techniques, rehabilitation, exercises etc. to facilitate recovery towards injury. This technique is used at the discretion of the therapist.
