Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of holistic treatments?All the holistic treatments I do can complement conventional medicine and can offer the following benefits to name just a few:
The number of treatments depends on you as the individual and the severity of your condition/s presented, which can be discussed on your first visit. Some people with acute illness may only need one appointment whilst those with chronic or longterm illness may need more. However, the majority of my clients choose to come on a monthly basis once their health has improved, as they enjoy the whole experience and have quality time for themselves!
How Will I feel after a treatment?
Most people feel deep relaxation, tireness, energised, warm or cold and with a general feel good factor. You may experience temporary deteriation of your illness for a day or two after the first visits before you start to improve; this is referred to as the healing crisis and is no cause of concern. Headaches, tiredness and frequent visits to the W.C may be experienced. Remember this is only temporary before your well-being improves and the experience of the treatment out weights any side effects.
What do I need to do after a treatment?
Allow yourself time to get the full benefits by relaxing.
My advice is to drink plenty of water over the next 24 hours. Water aids in removing any toxins from the body and elevates headaches. Avoid alcohol, caffeine based products and strenuous exercise as these are all stimulants.
Why do some of your treatments last so long?
After a deep relaxing treatment, the last thing you want to do is feel rushed to leave before it is safe for you to drive home. I therefore allow enough time to talk before and after the treatment and time for you to come around.
However, treatments times can be reduced if the client requires, for example, due to time restrictions or health reasons.
How often will I need a treatment?
Everybody and every condition are unique. Normally 6 weekly visits are recommended to start with, as this increases the bodies healing responses. If after 6 weeks there are no improvements, your treatment plan will be revised. Once health has improved, frequency of visits can be reduced. However, the majority of my clients enjoy their treatments that they have opted for a monthly maintenance program.
