KRISTINA BANNER

I have 23 years experience related to fitness, health and well being. My Sports degree lead me into the health & fitness field where for 7 years I worked for a leading leisure consultants company. I started out as a Health & Fitness Instructor & finished up as Assistant to the Managing Director.

I then retrained in Sports Massage & emigrated to New Zealand for 14 years where I worked as a self-employed practitioner of massage & reflexology, & taught yoga. I have worked with people of all ages & levels of fitness & well-being and have found that massage can offer some benefit to all; whether it be physical, emotional, mental or spiritual.

I have now returned to England & chosen to settle in Henfield to be close to family, & to be part of its wonderful community and village atmosphere. I also value the beautiful countryside that we have on our doorstep & enjoy cycling & walking in it.

I am passionate about my choice in helping others interested in their on-going journey to vitality & wellness. My philosophy is always to empower my clients to achieve & maintain well-being through the therapeutic benefits of touch & compassion, & advice offered on self-help & lifestyle choices.

MASSAGE

SPORTS MASSAGE
Of great benefit to anybody playing sports or keeping fit & healthy. I can assist you in the following ways to maximise the enjoyment, & your potential in your chosen activity:

• Prevention of injuries
• Recovery from training & competition
• Remedial soft tissue treatment
• Relaxation & Rejuvenation

THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
These are "hands on" massage techniques designed to release tension within the soft tissues of the body & promote a sense of relaxation & well-being. Modern day living can create disease within our body/mind which if left to accumulate can contribute to many modern day illnesses like high blood pressure, anxiety, OOS & infertility issues. Regular massage can be invaluable in a preventative role, & allow us to feel lighter & more at ease within ourselves.

REFLEXOLOGY

A natural ancient therapy which uses hands only to apply gentle pressure to the feet or hands to produce a healing response in the corresponding body region. Reflexology enhances:

• Organ vitality
• Circulation & elimination
• Mental & physical relaxation; restoring the body to a natural state of balance
• Body's healing mechanism to restore health & well-being

Massage & reflexology is suitable for all ages & may bring relief from a wide range of acute & chronic conditions. Many more people are taking more responsibility for their own health care needs & find regular treatments beneficial in maintaining health & well-being.
