About Adolphus Bodyworks

Bodywork Specialist-Lower Back & Shoulders
Run by me, Raymond Adolphus. I do Sports Bodywork, a combination of massage, stretch and simple joint work. We specialise in Bodywork for the Shoulder and Hip. I welcome you to try the Shoulder treatment. Its 40 mins of stabilizer focused motion-based bodywork. I originally designed it for my professional Boxing clients to help with Scapula mobility. My clients are mainly professional sports persons, Olympic sports and football and Boxing professionals. Clients come and see me (mostly monthly) for either Shoulder work or the Hip and Back. Treatments are contraindicated for clients on Blood thinners.
Best used as Fortnightly or Monthly treatment to support any current Physio/Osteo/Massage/Healing Therapy that you may be currently having. The aim of the Bodywork treatments is to improve Circulation and mobility and therefore overall fitness and wellness. For clients with pain, Indirect action is used to reduce pain by targeting tension and improving mobility, rather than pain symptoms. This promotes a more natural balanced healing. Motion is the best portion.
The Treatments are aimed at
Sports Professionals and anyone looking to Improve function through a Monthly Shoulder or Hip “tune-up”. The focus is on the stabiliser muscles, the ones that are often forgotten during gym or resistance training, getting these in better condition has two affects:
a) Improves your current strength (lengthen to strengthen) and actual power.
b) and keeps your “stabilisers” healthy for the “golden years”. This is when the sports injuries that you never looked after will manifest as serious hindrances to mobility and stability, and this may help reduce the symptoms or the likelihood of occurrences of dysfunctions such as Frozen Shoulder.
Treatments are 40 mins, they are fairly active, and you may be in many different positions for access, depending on the source of the tension. The treatments are sometimes very effective to reduce or sometime eliminate pain. This is not the purpose of the treatment. The reduction in pain happens because the muscles has improved circulation and lengthened through the Bodywork and “knots” have been reduced. This should not be an indication the Chronic issue you have has been eliminated.
