DORN METHOD
"Better back and joint care safely, naturally and gently". Developed in Germany in the 1980s, this technique involves the client and therapist working together to align the spine and other joints (no clicking or crunching involved!). It can be a quick and effective way to resolve leg length difference, and is suitable for clients with back pain, sciatica, or any kind of joint pain. At the session, the client is shown some quick and easy exercises to do at home to maintain the change that has taken place in the session, reducing the number of appointments needed. You should see results after the very first session. May be combined with a Breuss massage to stretch and energise the spine.

BOWEN TECHNIQUE
This technique consists of gentle but precise moves over certain muscles and tendons, aiming to rebalance the body. It is especially good for musculo-skeletal problems, and unlike massage can be used in acute phases. I like to call it “homeopathic massage”, as it can feel as if very little is being done, yet it can have a powerful effect. To be effective, it is best to have 2-3 sessions spaced 7-10 days apart, but no more than that is usually required. You should not have other treatments from any practitioner while receiving Bowen. Can be done through light clothing. (usually lasts 40-60 minutes)

PULSING
This non-invasive, relaxing, rocking style of bodywork invites the body to let go, inducing feelings of nurturance, lightness, and playfulness. One by one the joints are moved and rocked to release tension, going through the whole body. Can be done in loose, light clothing.

EAR CANDLES
If the sound of having a lighted candle placed in your ear sounds alarming – don’t worry! These are no ordinary candles, but hollow cotton tubes impregnated with beeswax and herbs. Lying on your side, each ear is treated in turn. Although the candles have a light convection effect this is imperceptible, and usually all you experience is a gentle crackling and deep relaxation. The best quality Biosun® candles are used, which have an inbuilt filter and maximum burn mark. This treatment can be helpful for conditions such as ear problems, sinus problems, and headaches among others. A face massage completes the treatment to aid sinus drainage. Reduced rates are available for children, omitting the face massage.

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES
These are gentle remedies for the mind and emotions that are taken internally. Very useful at times of stress, to help keep you on an even keel. Stress in the mind eventually shows up as physical ill health, so nip it in the bud. Rescue Remedy is a combination of five flower remedies, and a very useful aid to keep on hand for traumatic or stressful times. However, the remedies can work even better if you can find the combination that is just right for you. After a consultation I can make up a tailor-made prescription for you to take four times daily. They are extremely safe and gentle, suitable for all.

TOUCH FOR HEALTH (KINESIOLOGY)
Based in part on Traditional Chinese Medicine, TFH uses muscle testing to ask the body where energy imbalances are, and to find out which corrections are needed. Corrections include massage to points, holding points and more. Works on physical, mental, and emotional levels, and to help you move forward in your life.
