Holistic Therapies
• I am a fully qualified and insured holistic therapist with a City & Guilds Level 3 Diploma in Holistic Therapies and I am a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists. I am qualified in reflexology, aromatherapy, sports & remedial massage, Indian head massage, and body massage. I have since gone on to qualify in Hopi ear candling, pregnancy massage, and Hot Stone Fusion massage.
• Holistic therapies aim to treat the whole person, mind, body and spirit, not just the symptoms. The therapies work with the symptoms and the normal functions of the body, not against them.
• More and more people are now becoming interested in how they can take an active part in restoring their emotional and physical well being. Therapies such as massage, aromatherapy, and reflexology can help with musculo-skeletal problems such as arthritis and rheumatism, chronic pain as in headaches, migraines, tennis elbow, and backache, sports related injuries such as shin splints, damaged muscles, tendons and ligaments as well as immune related problems such as ME, MS and chronic infections such as cystitis. Many hormonal conditions can also be helped such as over or under active thyroid, PMT and menopausal symptoms.
• In holistic health care no standard treatment can be appropriate for all individuals, even if they have the same condition or injury. The person’s individuality is taken into account with a detailed consultation. Each person’s condition is different and therefore requires a different approach or maybe a different therapy, ie. reflexology rather than aromatherapy.
• The treatment strategy aims to work towards physical and emotional well being, not towards the absence of symptoms, as in conventional medicine. There is therefore no fixed beginning or end to the treatment, as the approach is one of preventative health care and maintenance of a state of well being.
• Massage can also be very beneficial for both mother and baby during pregnancy, often helping the mother to connect with her baby, as well as relax and soothe the many aches and pains that pregnancy brings, and help prepare the body for labour.
