Kerri Wellman, Remedial Massage Therapist and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation Trainer
Kerri works with us as a Remedial Massage Therapist and a Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation (DNS) Exercise Trainer.
Her dual qualifications means she is able to offer both Remedial Massage and Advanced Exercise Rehabilitation.
Kerri enjoys working with and being around people. She likes to work collaboratively with her patients using Massage and/or DNS exercises to reduce pain, rehabilitate injury, address postural issues and improve function, performance and daily living.
Kerri practices what she preaches, enjoys a variety of activities outside work and is a realist. She understands what it is like to be in pain, how hard – but rewarding – it can be to undertake rehabilitation and make positive changes to postural habits. She has personally suffered a few significant injuries herself and has experience the process herself, “It’s frustrating as hell ,but teaches you a lot about yourself right?”.
DNS stands for Dynamic Neuromuscular Stability. It is a rehabilitation approach that trains ideal stabilisation patterns using specific functional exercises. DNS retrains the body for ideal movement – the end result being less musculoskeletal pain, better breathing, improved range of motion and optimal muscle co-activation. So even if it’s just getting out of “survival” breathing, getting up from a chair with less knee pain, doing a stand-all-day job without backache or working at your desk with a less head/neck/shoulder tension, there are things you can practice that can make your life a little easier.
Kerri’s Remedial Massage appointments can be 30, 45 or 60 minutes duration. DNS exclusive appointments run for 60 minutes. Kerri can and does incorporate DNS into a Massage Therapy session too with clients if they’d like to do that, it’s all about just working with people based on what they want out of their session and time with her.
She looks forward to meeting and working with you!
