Sunil is an amazing rehab practitioner. He carefully analyses you structurally to determine why you have problems with your body. Each step of the recovery process is outlined and he follows up weekly to ensure your rehab is on track. Highly recommended!

After 2 sessions at Ravel therapies, Sunil managed to dramatically improve my upper neck/shoulder and calf pain that I was experiencing. I strongly recommend him as a therapist.

As a competitive cyclist, strength and flexibility are an important aspect to my performance. I really like Sunil's holistic approach. Sunil has not only been fantastic in treating some tightness and burning i was feeling through my neck and shoulders, but he has provided me with exercises to re-balance the muscles through my upper torso. I appreciate Sunil's desire to understand the root cause of the problem and work on long term sustainable solutions.

I was referred to Sunil by a neighbour who conducts Yoga classes in the same holistic health centre as Sunil.

I am 67 and have a 43 degree lateral scoliosis.

I had been to the GP and two spinal surgeons. Their solution was to fuse my spine from my pelvis to just beneath my shoulder blades with two rods and each vertebra being turned and wired to the rods. I was told that it was inevitable, but I could choose the time. I was also told that I would not be able to bend, put on shoes, reach upwards and many other simple activities which we all take for granted. There was the additional statement that quite possibly I would not be able to live independently.

I lived with that for 20 months, feeling too afraid to do anything much in case the spasm which began my round with the doctors might recur.

That is how I presented to Sunil.

Firstly, Sunil listened. He wanted to know as much as possible about the spinal situation, how it might have developed and, as well as that, details about me which he considered might be impacting on the situation.

I have seen him about eight times, now. His remedial massage treatment is very focussed but as “gentle” as it can be. As a result, I can stand straighter for longer. I have the confidence to be able to walk a few hundred metres without fear that I could not get back home and, as Sunil agrees, my scoliosis may never be fully corrected. It could, however, (and already has been) improved by correcting the muscle imbalances and strengthening the weak surrounding muscular support tissue and be revitalised through his massage and my exercising at home.

I would recommend that anyone experiencing similar symptoms to mine consult Sunil. The result for me has been a complete change in my quality of life and confidence in the future.

I've been seeing Sunil for 5 months after 20+ years of neck pain, headaches and migraines. I've tried everything including acupuncture and physiotherapy.

Sunil is super passionate and knowledgeable about what he does - and after diagnosing the 'cause' of my headaches, not necessarily the symptoms - I am happy to say I can't remember the last time I had a headache!!

Lotus Health is a lovely little Centre and I would highly recommend Ravel Therapies and Sunil to anyone out there looking at remedial massage.

I have a chronic discomfort which flares up at times of stress and uncertainty, and particularly when I am traveling a lot, and visited Sunil during the couple of months I stayed in Sydney.

He is a great listener, and listens to both your symptoms and the feedback your body gives him, and applies his extensive knowledge of the musculoskeletal structure to provide a comprehensive approach to both treatment and self care and maintenance to improve mobility and reduce pain.

My body would have struggled to get through the last few months without his support, and I am incredibly grateful for the exercises and techniques I can now use to alleviate discomfort and aftermath of the long haul flights home.

Thank you!

Are you in need or would like some guidance and reassurance in your life? Are you feeling down, vulnerable and/or isolated from people than ever before? This is exactly how I was feeling before experiencing Ravel Therapies and it was such a positive turning point in my life. Sunil and Stella are wonderful people who are there to listen and really help you in many ways. For me, it was improving my emotional state, gaining more confidence in myself and improving my skin (rosacea). I had very little knowledge about Kinesiology and how it might help me but once I had spoken to Sunil and Stella I was really intrigued and was eager to learn more. My first experience of Ravel Therapies was a relaxation massage from Sunil who was able to fully relax all my muscles and highlight to me where the tension was specifically in my body and how I could improve this by regular exercises. I felt extremely comfortable throughout the massage and truly felt the benefits after. My main cause for going to see Stella was about my rosacea and confidence and after two treatments I started seeing and feeling the benefits. My first session with Stella was extremely powerful and released an incredible amount of emotion that I didn’t even realise I had trapped. Stella is able to communicate with you and your body in such a special way that is able to release any imprisoned emotion you may have. Throughout the treatment Stella takes a lot of time and effort to find out what your body is lacking in and what your body needs. The feedback given to you from the sessions are informative, detailed and really give you a new focus and direction in your life. It is worth every penny! The only reason why I haven’t gone back for another treatment this year is because I had to move out of Sydney. Fortunately, I will be returning at the end of the year to enjoy more treatments.

Sunil is a champion! I went in with some lower back pains and was merely expecting a good remedial massage to help rub out all of my tense areas but was pleased to get a lot more than just that. He gave me great advice on what was causing my issues and what to and what not to do in my daily activities to help my body recover. I'm sad to say that today will be my last session with him for a little while, though i will go away with great confidence that from his treatment and continued use of the exercise program which he has suggested, that in no time at all i will be 100%!

Thanks a lot for your review, Zoran. Certainly, providing temporary relief is not what Ravel Therapies is about. Our interest is in getting to the core issues, and empowering you to help yourself! It is always great to have clients who take responsibility and are diligent in doing their exercises - so well done!
I look forward to progressing you further on your return.
Best wishes
Sunil
