My journey into the field of complementary health care began many years ago after having personally experienced recurring health problems for most of my life. I made a conscious decision to try to find a path to lead me to a deeper understanding of ill health its root causes and ways to encourage and promote healing not just on a physical level, but also on an emotional, mental and spiritual level.
I initially studied aromatherapy which is an extremely relaxing treatment that incorporates the use of essential plant oils. These oils have specific healing properties. A few drops of these wonderfully aromatic oils are blended into a carrier oil and gently massaged into the recipients body .The oils are absorbed into the clients bloodstream via the skin and respiratory system. An aromatherapy massage is a delightful sensory experience with the benefit of detoxification, deep relaxation and the healing properties of the oils.
From here I decided to study reflexology. This is a powerful foot massage which works on the principal that the entire body is mirrored or can be mapped on the feet… and that by using very specific massage techniques on various points on the foot, the whole body can be treated. Reflexology not only helps with many ailments, it is also a very effective treatment to include in your health care as regular treatments encourage the elimination of toxins and creates a state of balance and harmony within the body’s systems. It is wonderfully relaxing and energising.
Indian head massage encourages deep relaxation and stress relief... The client is seated while the treatment takes place and a highly stimulating massage is given to the upper back, shoulders, neck, and face. This treatment takes between thirty to forty minutes it can easily be fitted into a busy schedule and is a great energiser.
I discovered Reiki about ten years ago… Reiki is an amazing healing energy which has an intelligence of its own and will direct itself to areas of greatest need in a client on all levels. Reiki sessions involve the client resting on a treatment couch fully clothed. The practitioner who has been attuned to the Reiki energy frequency is then able to channel the energy through themselves into the recipient by placing their hands on the body or by working in the aura. Reiki is an extremely powerful yet incredibly gentle healing tool. My journey with Reiki has led me over many years of learning to become a Reiki master teacher with a deep desire to pass on the ability to channel Reiki. I hold regular training weekends for all who want to become attuned to this wonderful healing system, to enhance and empower their lives and the lives of those around them.
Reiki can also be used on plants, animals, past and present issues.
Many of my treatments will involve Reiki energy at some point.
I practice the Usui Shiki Ryoho system of natural healing.
These courses involve a process of initiations or attunements in which the teacher passes on the ability to channel Reiki to the student. The student is then able to begin their own journey... This is a powerful self healing tool that will be with you for life. There are four levels to Reiki training:
- First Degree
- Second Degree
- Advanced Level (Master)
- Reiki Master Teacher
