#Acupuncture   aims to treat the whole person in order to redress the balance  of their physical, emotional and spiritual needs. It is a system of healing which has been practised in China and other Eastern countries for thousands of years.   Contrary to popular belief, acupuncture is not merely used to alleviate pain - it can also be used for a wide variety of other 'problems', for example; asthma, infertility, arthritis, depression, and skin conditions. It is not painful and the needles used are not like most peoples perception of a needle, but rather, they are fine, almost hair-like in appearance.

During your therapy moxa and cupping may also be used.

nutrition testing #Allergy Testing (food intoerance)  We have a range of tests which can be used appropriately to your needs. The basic blood test is for those who suspect some health issue may be due to a food intolerance.   This test would ascertain whether or not you have an intolerance to any food.   More advanced testing checks your blood sample against a range of foods. 

Find out more about Barry Todd and food allergy/intolerance testing.



#Aqua Detox is available at the centre.  Click here for more information  We also give a complementary foot soak and electronic foot massage afterwards which is not part of the treatment.

Look out for our special 1/2 price Aqua Detox days when we offer 1/2 price treatments - please note that although these still include the foot soak they do not include the foot massage.

#Chakra Balancing and Cleansing
Chakra means wheel - in this case wheel of energy.  We have several chakras throughout our body - major and minor ones.  This process works with the majors chakras and balances any blockages or over-stimulation leaving you feeling more harmonious.  There are a number of ways do approach this process using colour, energy or colour crystals.

chi#Chi Machine -  A fish like wave exercise that stimulates the acupuncture points down your spine encouraging detox and refreshing your system. 15 minutes exercise is said to be equivalent to 1 hour of hard aerobics or gym work. .  No need for special clothing just loose and comfortable trousers.

 


pills  #Homeopathy is a safe, natural and effective system of medicine already used bu 30 million people in Europe, it has been around for 200 years.  It has shown to be effective in a wide range of illnesses and conditions -mental, emotional and physical whatever your age or current state of health.

Homeopathy does not interfer with any conventional medicines and may even help you to reduce them in cooperation with your doctor.  The therapy involves taking a remedy that is pleasant tasting, narual, easy to take and non-addictive.

#Hopi Ear Candles

Thermal Auricular Therapy (also known as Hopi Ear Candles) is a pleasant and non-invasive treatment of the ears, used to treat a variety of conditions. These ear candles induce a revitalising heat upon the head and ears, which soothes, relieves and relaxes.  Accompanied by a relaxing facial massage to encourage lymphatic drainage.


fobwatch  #Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy can help to change your mind!   Whether that is a simple change such as being confident about flying, stopping smoking etc. or a more complex change like getting rid of anxiety.   The therapy depends upon the condition, as do the number of sessions you will require.

Hypnotherapy is not about being put into a 'trance' and giving up control.   Hypnotherapy involves you entering into a very relaxed state, you do not give up control and you are aware of what is going on around you.   Under therapeutic hypnosis you cannot be made to do anything you do not want to do.

Whatever the problem it is always worth ringing me to discuss the ways that hypnotherapy could help.

  pyramidSuccess Coaching is a process of focusing and fine tuning to ensure that you are getting where you want to be - even if at the beginning of the sessions you don't know where that is!   It about you finding your own way within a supported relationship, rather then someone guiding you.  it's the sensible way to cope with the stresses of modern day living and especially useful if you are in a demanding job.

#Metabolic Typing seeks to determine how you metabolize your food following celerysimple test. Once your type is known you can then be given a recommended food list for your type and guidelines to help you fine tune your diet to give you optimum benefits. The method in all cases will recommend whole and natural foods and lifestyle changes may be relevant. Like all natural methods development is long term(mths rather than wks) and educational.

The great thing about MT is that it's a million miles from one size fits all diets in that you learn how to tailor your own diet, sometimes from meal to meal, to help with your specific health concerns. Once you have spent some time with MT you begin to realise that a lot of what is said about nutrition in mainstream can be nonsense! Why? Because it often fails to meet your needs.

#Nutritional Coaching.   Nutrition is not about going on a 'diet'.   Diets are short term acts of sacrifice as you avoid your favourite foods temporarily always thinking 'I can't wait 'til this diet is over then I can have '*!$%^**'.

Nutrition uses the power of food with the help and support of a therapist to help you through the early stages of what should be a lifelong path to health and well-being - you can learn so much more. You don't have to think of food as your medicine either, as the old fable goes, as this makes you think food is medicine and tastes nasty! But you will start to think differntly about foods.

Nutritional Strategies are more about getting to know food and how it affects YOU! Using it to your advantage!

Discover those foods that make you feel better, perform better in all aspects of your life, achieve the look you would like and make sure you increase the quality of your life permenantly.  

Those who believe they are already on a healthy diet are often surprised at how nutritional therapy can still make such a difference.

Contact our Nutritional Therapist and ask how changes to your nutrition can help you.

Everything you do, believe, imagine is recorded in your brain as though it were real.  So that means everytime you think you will fail, or be scared, or make a fool of yourself, you are reinforcing your ability to do that with ease.  NLP is all change about the way you thyink of these things so that you can transfer your abilities to more positive results.

Very useful in the worksplace where motivation is required.

ohm  #Yoga Therapy

 

Yoga is a form of practise that is beneificial to the mind, body and spirit.   During a remedial Yoga session, usually done as one-one, specific problems can be targetted.   While it will be neccessary to work on the whole body to create balance, postures will be chosen to alleviate the problem whether that be anxiety, stiffness or long term alignment problems which are now resulting in arthritis or rheumatism.

colour wheel#Colour Therapy

Your choice of colour and the colours you don't choose reflect the balance of energy within your body.
In a similar way to being unable to not communicate you cannot not choose a colour.  Colour can be used to help aid the healing process within your body and has been used successfully in burns units for instance where blue walls have been shown to speed up the recovery rate of severly burned children.

Imbalances in your body energies can result in your feeling not quite right but without there being anything consciously wrong and sometimes that is an inability to funcation to your maximum potential with one energy area of your life.

Colour therapy uses you choices of colour to aid the process followed by a period of energy therapy which might include light, coloured material or crystals.  The aim being to give you the option to take a more balanced approach to approaches to life.

#Reflexology

or zone therapy, is the practice of massaging, squeezing, or pushing on parts of the feet, or sometimes the hands and ears, with the goal of encouraging a beneficial effect on other parts of the body, or to improve general health.

It is believed that that areas on the foot correspond to areas of the body, and that by manipulating these one can improve health.  It is also believed that  these zones reflect energy (Qi), and that blockages of energy in the body are reflected through "grit" or "lumps" on the foot.

A clinical reflexologist can often tell, simply by the conidtion of your feet where you may have problem in your body and it is not unusual to hear 'Have you got a problem with your right shoulder?' for instance.
Our reflexologist is Sam Holt
