Mizan (pronounced Mi-zahn) is an Arabic word that means balance. By using traditional reproductive healing techniques (utilising abdominal massage), Mizan Therapists seek to restore balance when life feels unbalanced – physically, emotionally or spiritually.
Do you suffer from menstrual pain? Is it difficult to have a pap smear? Are you struggling with fertility issues and want to get pregnant? Do you have PCOS? Do you have digestive problems, or IBS? Are your menopausal symptoms embarrassing? Have you had any abdominal surgery, including caesarean section? Are you pregnant or just had a baby? Mizan Therapy can help with any of these – and many more!
