About

We want you to be the best version of YOU!

We are all unique, so when it comes to successfully maintaining one's health, we often need guidance to develop a personal philosophy that fits our goals and motivations.

Our Approach

Sleep, fatigue and stress are three of the leading factors that intertwine with health issues in New Zealand. 

Our approach is to identify if, or how, these components influence you, and your health. We then tailor our recommendations so that it is unique to each individuals' healing journey.

Philosophy of Recovery

Balancing of your ANS (Autonomic Nervous System) - to support the body so it can differentiate between fight/flight and rest/repair.

Improving the Quality of Sleep - good sleep is the key to how we feel, how we cope, and good health. 

Supporting health at a cellular level — this is the environment the cells live in, and how they interact.

This environment can affect cell development, function, and longevity.  Removing the toxins can be key to improving ones' health and well-being.

Commitment to Clients

Managing one's health isn’t only in the hands of a Healthcare Practitioner — it’s helping someone realise it is also in theirs. Our primary goal is to educate and empower people to become an active partner in their own healing. Along with, providing self-care techniques and support, so someone can feel informed and in control of their health journey.

FLOWpresso

FLOWpresso™ works wonders in many ways for all types of people.  Providing a unique therapy that encourages the body to release toxins and promotes the body's self healing mechanisms.  The non-invasive therapy uses a combination of compression, far infrared heat and deep pressure simultaneously to encourage the body’s inner systems to activate.

​Here is how the FLOWpresso works:

Delivering a cyclic compression to different areas of the body. Each chamber inflates sequentially, before its predecessor completely deflates.  Compression allows the body to change the way it moves, encouraging the body to release toxins.

​Far-infrared heat to each of the four sections of the garment to encourage a relaxing, sleep promoting effect along with encouraging an improved state of health.​​  The far infrared heat embraces the body with a gentle, healing warmth which allows the body to rest, and relax, in such a way that helps restore balance.

​Deep pressure therapy is applied to the body - similar too a hug - through each individual chamber, serving a profoundly relaxing effect, allowing the body to calm and release the daily stress of life​.​

The FLOW experience.

The FLOWpresso experience is like no other, an explanation on what to expect has been included to enlighten those that are interested. You are fully clothed at all times, and will be assisted by a trained technician who puts you into the suit. Whilst lying horizontally, your feet, legs, abdomen and arms are enclosed by the suit. You’re given an eye mask to enhance the relaxing experience, which lasts for forty minutes. We have found that this timeframe gives your body, and the suit the best opportunity to work it’s magic on you. The three types of therapy are activated during your time in the suit, working to give you the benefits it has access to.

The FLOWpresso experience is slightly different for every individual. Whilst some say it helps them feel light and refreshed, others say it leaves them de-stressed, rested and more in-tune with their body.

Side effects/Contraindications

The side effects of FLOWpresso are very similar to a massage or lymphatic therapy e.g increased urination, bowel motion and a headache. We do suggest you drink 1 glass of water prior to the session in order to get the optimal from this therapy. It is also important with post therapy to reduce chances of detoxification symptoms.

Contraindications

FLOWpresso is contraindicated for:

• Heart disease, especially if increased blood flow is detrimental, e.g. congestive heart failure or high blood pressure
• Pregnancy
• Acute infection of the affected limb e.g. cellulitis
• Acute/Chronic Bronchitis
• Deep Vein Thrombosis, DVT

Corporate Programs

Wellness has a significant impact on the productivity of most businesses. By showing your employees you care about their health and wellbeing, an understanding environment is created. This can encourage employees to be more engaged, and promote a positive workplace culture that boosts performance.  A 2015 Southern Cross Healthcare Group survey looked into the living habits of New Zealanders, which revealed that almost a quarter of us feel tired or fatigued every day, with this rising to 36% among people under 30.  The survey also showed that 80% of New Zealanders would rather have full night's sleep than a big night out.​

FLOWpresso offers a solution, by improving sleep and reducing fatigue. The effects of FLOWpresso can also support a person's mental health by reducing the feeling of stress, creating a sense of calm, and promoting a relaxed state.

The Aetiology Clinic also offer different services to support your Wellness initiative for your Staff. These services can be catered to best suit your initiative.
