Pamela's Therapies

REIKI Reiki means universal life force energy. During the treatment Pamela will place her hands on the fully clothed clients body. Clients may experience a deep feeling of warmth and relaxation, and sometimes movements, coolness or colours. Reiki is used to restore balance and harmony, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually

QI GONG An ancient form of very gentle exercise, practised in China, which is suitable for any age group. We combine some stationary poses with the breath (and visualisation sometimes), and at other times you follow slow, methodical movements with relaxed breathing. This enhances the flow of chi/qi (the Chinese word meaning energy) around the body, stimulates the lymphatic and circulatory systems, tones muscles and gives a sense of well-being, balance and relaxation.

MEDITATION Anyone can meditate. The mind can be still, relieving the stress of modern-day living from both the mind and the body. The health benefits are far too many to list. Your well-being also has a wonderful effect on those around you. Guided Meditation helps to keep the mind focused, blocking out all the internal clutter. This leaves you feeling calm. peaceful and relaxed. In meditative states, you find a self that you may never have known existed.

REFLEXOLOGY Reflexology is an extremely effective ancient Chinese method of foot massage. It works on the principle that points on the foot correspond to organs and sections of the body. By applying pressure, which can be quite deep at times, the reflexologist helps the body stimulate its own healing process, re-establishing perfect balance in all systems. Reflexology is also extremely relaxing and can be very good for high blood pressure, headaches, back troubles and digestive problems, and maintaining good health.

SPIRITUAL HEALING Healing is given either seated or lying down, the hands do not usually touch the body, clients usually feel warmth emitting from the hands. Pamela incorporates a channelled visualisation, which is like day dreaming. This is very relaxing and can help release traumas stored in the body, in the form of illness or stress

MASSAGE FOR BABIES Massage for Babies gives time for parent and baby to enjoy a close bonding, as well as many health benefits. In the session the parent is taught how to massage their baby. The massage is given with a nourishing oil and a very light touch. As well as promoting good health and development, specific problems such as colic, disturbed sleeping patterns and pain when teething can be helped.

SHAMANIC CARD READING Using a variety of cards to help the client unravel their feelings and inspire them to move into a better space in their lives, seeing things from a different prospective

MANUAL LYMPH DRAINAGE Manual Lymph Drainage or MLD is a gentle pumping massage that stimulates the lymphatic system. Waste products can build up in the body when lymph is not flowing freely. This can cause swelling, bloating, fluid retention, headaches, fatigue, skin problems and illness. The lymphatic system works to purify and drain the body. The lymph should be constantly moving in order to work efficiently and keep you healthy. This type of massage is also beneficial when recovering from cancer or sports injuries.

BODY TONING EXERCISES Body Toning Exercise is taught to help you change your shape and is extremely good for anyone with back or joint problems. It is a form of exercise that makes you more flexible and supple, toning the muscles to give better body definition but not bulk. This is not aerobic but can be combined with a regular aerobic workout such as walking, swimming, etc.

SWEDISH MASSAGE Swedish Massage, so-called after a Swedish physiologist, is given with essential oils and can be both curative and preventative. The massage can be helpful in healing specific complaints such as muscle spasms, backaches and pains, migraine, depression, or purely for mental and physical healing and leaves you feeling wonderfully relaxed.

NLP Emotional management and life-coaching with neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a mental way of creating new beliefs, new patterns, new pathways in the brain. Once established and reinforced, the mind then works for you. making your life happier than before, enabling you to have more control and enthusiasm every day. This technique is quick and easy and can change your life, giving you focus and clear thinking to create a stronger you.
