Welcome to Health Balance

Massage, Nutrition, Meditation

Science is just now beginning to acknowledge what has been known by many civilisations over thousands of years — that the conscious connection of the spirit and mind is the most powerful part of a human being and is the source of unlimited healing.

The healing process is dependent on a mind-body-spirit connection which influences the cellular structure to change. Our range of treatments can help you achieve that, therefore releasing disease and stress.

Health Balance offers a wide range of treatments including Massage Therapy, Nutrition, Reiki, Stress Management, Hopi Ear Candling plus courses for massage, nutrition, meditation.

For whatever reason you are visiting our site, we hope that the journey will be informative, interesting and enjoyable.

About Me


My Healing approach to health is through the whole person – body – mind – spirit. That means looking at what is happening for you on all levels — physically, mentally, emotionally and environmentally.

I have studied many different disciplines with very experienced teachers to arrive at what I feel is now a complete therapy, including Healing and Meditation, Therapeutic Massage, Auricular Therapy and Nutrition and recently the Meridian Stress Assessment System — MSAS.

We all know the benefits of a good diet, plenty of exercise, sleep etc. However, sometimes we just cannot find the mental space, time or physical energy to implement positive changes in our lives. My aim is to help and support you reach the goals you wish to achieve, through the process of making positive choices that will enhance your well being and reduce your stress levels. During this process, I offer practical support, therapeutic massage, Nutrition and dietary advice and nutritional supplementation to achieve health and well-being.

As a holistic practitioner, my interest lies not only in your social, relational and specific triggering causes for your current difficulties, but also the physical and biochemical causes that, once addressed, may rid your body of obstacles to wellness and lead to a vitality and balance — physically, mentally and emotionally.

I am a professional member of the regulating bodies Embody and Federation of Holistic Therapists. Therefore I am bound by a professional code of ethics and a commitment to the continuation of ongoing education through Continual Professional Development, to maintain cutting-edge knowledge of the latest scientific research.



Massage Treatments

The Power of Touch

We have all had the experience of massage in its simplest form. How many times have you suffered from pain or discomfort with the natural reaction to rub the area; miraculously experiencing the diminishing of pain to a certain degree. Children are a very good example of this basic instinct to massage an area when in pain; when they have hurt themselves they come running for the area to be 'rubbed better'.

Early in our development on this planet we would have had access to and understanding of many herbs and their effect on the body, whether taken internally or applied topically. Certain plants therefore were applied to the area of pain with gentle massage to promote the healing process. Animals, which still have the basic instincts towards health, will lick wounds or areas that are painful; they will also search out certain herbs to help the healing process. These techniques, from early civilisations to present time, have evolved the very diverse massage we know and use today.

The benefits of massage

My work involves using a combination of massage, healing, shiatsu, acupressure and neuro-muscular techniques. This allows me to give a massage that can release tension; and free the chi (energy) at the deepest level. This Therapeutic Massage Treatment has proven to be an effective remedy to treat anxiety, depression, deep-seated emotional disturbances, stress and can assist in healing back pain, various injuries, repetitive strain injury, pinched nerves, sciatica, muscular spasms, aches, pain, stiffness, migraines, arthritis, scoliosis and some forms of immobility.

Nutrition

We are what we absorb

Nutrition is probably the most misunderstood and undervalued subject with regard to disease and health of the body.

We have libraries with shelves filled with books written by authors advocating the powerful outcome of their diet on health. There are health shops crammed full of every type of wonder vitamin or mineral that will 'change your life'. There are television programmes highlighting aspects of diet and healthy eating and the links to poor health - yet we still have a society that is suffering from many life-threatening diseases.

Why?

Because we are treating the symptom and not the cause.

Our NHS is not geared to treat the cause of illness - it is there to determine a symptom and label it. From there on it is treating that symptom and other symptoms that are created from that treatment. It is the same with the books on diets; it was written by someone who treated their symptom, not yours. The marketing that is involved with many vitamin and mineral companies is aimed at treating symptoms; not dissimilar to the pharmaceutical companies selling their designer potions for all sorts of health problems.

How I work

Treatment starts with you filling in a very comprehensive questionnaire giving me information about you and your family history. We then arrange a consultation appointment where the cause or causes for your ill health are uncovered. From that information a bespoke healthy eating plan, along with a supporting supplement prescription is developed to alleviate the cause of the dis-ease in the body. You are supported throughout the treatment process, with future appointments tracking your progress and making adjustments along the way.

This process is about educating you to understand your unique body and its needs in keeping it working successfully.

Hopi Ear Candling

The Magic of Fire

Hopi Ear Candling induces a pleasant feeling of warmth and a balance of pressure in the ears, forehead and sinuses. It is soothing and helpful for earache and headache, ear noise, stress and nervousness.

The magic of fire has fascinated people from the very beginning of time and control of this element gave light and warmth. Ear candles evoke a similar fascination and have been used by many cultures as an effective natural therapy since ancient times.

Historical roots can be found among the peoples of the Siberian prairies, Asia and the native North and South American Indians. The Hopi, the oldest Pueblo people with great medicinal knowledge and a high degree of spirituality, brought this knowledge to Europe.

I only use BIOSUN EAR CANDLES for my candling — they are still manufactured by hand using the traditional recipe of pure beeswax, honey extract and traditional herbs such as sage, St Johns wort, Camomile and pure essential oils.

This is an extremely safe and relaxing therapy with clients describing the treatment as a soothing, pain and pressure relieving sensation, mainly in the ear and head area. It is also known that the treatment allows freer nasal breathing and an improved sense of smell, even when the nose was blocked before a treatment.

Many of my clients have experienced a deep relaxation that lasted for many hours after the treatment and gave a sense of well-being and happiness which is seldom experienced in our hectic pace of life.
