Pohutukawa Place Ltd

Pohutukawa Place Ltd offers Relaxation, Therapeutic Massage and specializes
in Manual Lymph Drainage/Lymphoedema Therapy.
Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is a gentle technique which stimulates lymph
vessels to assist fluid movement in the tissues. This helps drain waste products
leading to greater cell health. MLD also affects the nervous system by blocking
pain messages thereby reducing pain and promoting relaxation and a sense
of wellbeing.  MLD is proven to be beneficial post injury or surgery as it drains
local swelling and bruising, treats the surgical scar and stimulates the
regeneration of damaged lymph vessels.
Lymphoedema is caused by a poorly formed Lymphatic System or as a result
of trauma, surgery, removal of or Radiation to Lymph Nodes. Therapy assists
with relieving the symptoms of Lymphoedema and involves MLD, compression
bandaging / compression garments, exercise and skin care.
Diane Lacey has been a Theatre Nurse since 1989 and obtained a Diploma
in Therapeutic Massage in 2007 at the New Zealand College of Massage.
She was Certified as an MLD and Lymphoedema Therapist at the Dr Vodder
School in Austria in 2008.

Animal Homeopath

I am a qualified classical animal homeopath practicing in the Franklin
Area. An animal homeopath looks at the entire animal, their general health
and lifestyle, and what you, the owner, understand their mental and
emotional state to be. The individual is treated as a whole not just the
symptoms. As a very simple example, two people may both be suffering from
the flu but one may feel cold – the other hot; a different remedy would be
needed.

Homeopathy is a holistic therapy and can be used alongside veterinary
prescribed medicines and other alternative therapies.
