Holistic Therapy
I use the term Holistic Therapy to describe the reflective and conversational aspect of the sessions that I offer.
Our bodies harbour the stresses and worries that each of us holds within and many people seek forms of Bodywork, like massage, to address and iron out these discomforts. As a stand alone treatment massage is very beneficial, not simply because of the relaxation and health promoting benefits it offers, but because of the quiet time and space it provides. Sometimes this is entirely appropriate for what a person needs at that given moment, but at other times a little more support may be necessary.
Our bodies house our minds, our emotions and our spirits and when we work with one, we work with them all to some degree. The space that I offer, and the sessions that I provide, are very holistic and draw on all my trainings in support of you.
As a Complementary Therapist I use therapeutic touch and essential oils to soothe and relax you; as an Acupuncturist I use Meridian theory to understand and treat energetic blockages that could be causing you physical or mental discomfort; as a Psychotherapist and Healing Practitioner I call on conversation, dreamwork and Flower Remedies to support you.
I use the tools that I have available to me to assist you in the most beneficial way possible and am always aware and respectful of your boundaries.
First sessions are 90 minutes in duration and allow for a thorough conversation about your health and wellbeing. This will help to determine which tools from my kit will be most helpful for your treatment, which is 60 minutes long.
