EMMETT Therapy

The EMMETT Technique is a unique form of body relaxation therapy involving the use of light finger pressure at specific points.  Using light touch can trigger a relaxation response in the soft tissues of the body, thereby helping to relieve feelings of tension. Many people find they feel more at ease within their body and their emotional well being is enhanced.

EMMETT may be applied in isolation but it also combines easily with all other bodywork and exercise specialities such as massage, chiropractic, physiotherapy, Bowen therapy, yoga, Pilates and personal training as some typical examples.  

Most Common Benefits for People

The relaxing nature of the technique results in people reporting typical responses such as:  

  • more restful sleep  
  • enhanced mood 
  • a sense of lightness within their body  
  • improved comfort and ease within the areas treated such as back, abdomen, hips, legs, knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, arms, hands and neck.

Most people report an immediate and significant improvement with the problem that has been troubling them. Many people who previously had limitations on what they could do, find that they can perform these actions more easily after treatment.

People can be treated while sitting, standing or lying down. The treatment can be applied directly to the skin or through clothing. Sessions can last anywhere from 20- 30minutes if the EMMETT Technique is used alone – or up to 1 hour if combined with a Wellbeing consultation.

Emmett Therapy Testimonials…

  • Wendy has magic hands!Rachel, Milton Keynes

    I have suffered from sciatica for a few years now and been in a lot of pain, so I went to see Wendy who was fantastic. She advised me to try Emmett therapy and after explaining to me how it worked I went for it as I had nothing to lose. I can honestly say it's the best decision I made. I have been pain free for over 2 weeks now and feeling great with no pain and free to move again instead of being restricted to what I could do. Thank you so much magic hands Wendy!

  • I’m very impressed with Wendy’s Emmett skillsSG, London

    Wendy offered me Emmett therapy for pain I had in my lower-mid back. During her assessment she also noted I was very tight in my neck and left shoulder. After only 25 mins I felt less stiff and  tight all over. My posture felt improved.

  • Thank you WendyMrs P, Milton Keynes

    Wendy helped me with my knee, neck and shoulder ailments! I had a pain score of 6 and my balance was not good. Wendy was very professional and thorough with her assessment of me. She did some Emmett which I was very impressed with considering it is such a light touch!! My pain score was 0 straight after the treatment! My posture changed and I could see the following day that my shoulders were in the right place!

  • I slept better than I had in monthsHolly. Milton Keynes

    I had neck and shoulder pain and I was also pregnant! Wendy worked on me for 20 mins and my neck felt much looser as did my shoulders. Overall it was very relaxing and the next day I realised.

  • I will be booking againDee. Milton Keynes

    I was feeling overwhelmed, tense and generally stressed. Wendy provided a lymphatic treatment and I felt released and relaxed.

  • Huge impact to my daily lifeMick, Milton Keynes

    At first I could not believe that something so gentle and non-invasive would make a difference to the pain in my back, leg and joints as nothing seemed to have worked.

    After the second / third sessions, I found I could walk straighter and without limping, the pain in my back and overall has reduced.

    6 months on with regular sessions of Emmett,  I move quicker and more easily and my pain levels are over half of what they were and I no longer need to take painkillers which has made a huge impact to my daily life. Thank you Wendy!

  • I’m very glad I found Wendy!Caroline, Milton Keynes

    I felt immediate changes from the discomfort in my knee following an Emmett treatment with Wendy. I returned to her with various bits of tension particularly in my neck, shoulder and lower back and again felt increased range of movement and release. I attended for a third session as I was feeling a bit overwhelmed and Wendy treated me with a very relaxing lymphatic treatment which left me with a huge feeling of release and relaxation! Emmett is an amazing technique I’m very glad I found Wendy!

  • NO PAINMichelle, Milton Keynes

    Wendy worked her Emmett skills on my shoulder which I was in horrendous pain I would say an 8 on the scale!!! Once she worked only 20 min on my shoulder it went down to 3!!! Omg I couldn’t believe it. I had a serious care accident at high speed of 60mph car hit me so the impact was hard to say the least. Wendy came straight round and got me all sorted with support bandages, pills, cream, heat rice etc etc, not to mention cups of coffee. So a massive thank you as I’ve not slept through the night with pain and last night I had 10 hrs sleeping NO PAIN.
