Gentle movement. A little more ease.
Care, with room to ask.
Kinetic Chain Release brings together a structured sequence of joint mobilisations and stretches. It is a hands-on session, with time to talk about how movement feels for you and what you hope to get from your visit.
Dora explains the approach before you begin. Your comfort guides the pace, and you can ask to pause or avoid a movement at any time. Wear loose, comfortable clothing that lets you move freely.
What to expect
- A conversation about your goals and suitability
- An explained sequence of movements and stretches
- Time to ask questions and discuss next steps
A little understanding
People may seek KCR for stiffness or restricted movement. Independent clinical evidence for the specific KCR protocol remains limited. Results vary; it should not replace appropriate medical assessment.
Your session begins with a discussion of suitability and comfort. Complementary therapies support wellbeing alongside appropriate medical care.
Kinetic Chain Release: your questions.
What is KCR in simple terms?
KCR is a hands-on sequence of gentle joint movements and assisted stretches. It considers movement across the body, with the practitioner supporting you through the sequence while you remain clothed.
Is KCR the same as physiotherapy?
No. KCR is a specific bodywork protocol developed by a physiotherapist. Dora is a nurse and KCR therapist; a KCR appointment is not a physiotherapy assessment or a prescribed rehabilitation programme.
What happens at my first appointment?
You discuss your goals, relevant health history and comfort with different positions. Dora explains the approach, guides the treatment when suitable, and leaves time to review how you feel afterwards. Allow around 60 minutes in total.
Do I stay clothed for KCR?
Yes. Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows your arms and legs to move freely. Shoes are removed for the session.
Does KCR have to hurt to work?
No. Gentle movement should stay within a comfortable range. Pain is not a requirement, and you can pause or stop treatment at any time.
Will one KCR session fix my posture or pain?
A single visit may feel helpful, but neither immediate nor lasting improvement is guaranteed. Review comfort and everyday movement after the session rather than expecting a permanent correction. Persistent or worsening pain needs appropriate clinical assessment.
Can I request KCR after a sports injury?
A new injury should be assessed first. Once the injury is understood, suitability depends on the diagnosis, recovery stage and rehabilitation advice. KCR does not replace injury treatment or return-to-sport clearance.
How many sessions will I need?
Start with one session if you would like to understand the experience and review your response. There is no standard number that suits everyone. Three sessions are available as a £140 package, with each date arranged separately.
How much does KCR cost with Dora?
A session costs £50 and lasts around 60 minutes. A three-session package costs £140. Connective tissue release is included where appropriate. No payment is collected online.
Does Dora offer KCR home visits?
Home visits are available by arrangement. The travel area, access needs and any extra charge are agreed before the visit. Include a home-visit preference in your request.
Can someone with limited mobility enquire?
Yes. Dora has experience supporting people with mobility difficulties. Describe practical access and positioning needs in your enquiry so suitability can be discussed privately before treatment. Not every movement or approach will suit every person.
Can I combine KCR with another treatment?
Yes. Dora offers KCR + Bowen therapy or KCR + manual lymph drainage in one 90-minute visit at £70. The choice depends on your needs and suitability. Each is one combined session, not a multi-visit package.
