Hot Stone Massage

I am not very good at this but have to thank you for the Reiki you have given me, for there was a time I had a job to walk, the pain in my knee was so bad I could have cried, you came and worked Reiki on it and i couldn’t believe the difference it made the pain was so little afterwards, for a few days I felt so much better.
I would always and do tell people how good you are with Reiki and always explain how i felt before the treatment and how I felt after, would always ask for more as it is better than any drug the doctors give you, and healthier too.

When anxiety is weighing you down – we’ll give you support

Of course, patients with long term conditions have any number of concerns weighing them down – and so do those who care for them. We provide many treatments to help when you’re feeling overwhelmed, including:

Counselling

The counselling we provide will enable you to see your next steps without fear. We will support you, providing a space where you can set goals and develop strategies for the future, as well as dealing with loss and pain. However lonely you may feel – at a time when you feel you have lost control – sharing these concerns and working through them will give you back some strength. We provide this service for patients and their families, you’re not alone.

Clinical Hypnotherapy

Using hypnotherapy to support your recovery. Having been brought into a deeply relaxed state, the therapist can address the concerns you’re struggling with allowing you to see your way forward or manage your fears. Hypnotherapy has brought calm to a number of our patients, one individual who – as an amputee – was suffering with chronic phantom pains, was able to drastically reduce their medication having received our support.

When you can’t find sleep – we’ll give you rest

Problems sleeping affect many patients with long term conditions for a number of reasons; if this is something you struggle with, our therapies include:

Swedish, Or Classic Massage

Relaxes and improves wellbeing, reducing stress. We’ve supported Cancer and MS patients as well as those with many other conditions; call us to find out if this would help you.

Reflexology

A treatment which eases pain and anxiety with the application of pressure on specific points of the hands or feet. The use of reflexology has supported many of our patients – encouraging relaxation, improving general health and supporting the body’s own healing.

Hopi

This therapy uses vibration and warmth to massage the ear drum and canal. Withdrawing the wax and impurities clears the patient’s ear, sinuses and nose helping balance the pressure in ears, forehead and sinuses creating a lighter feeling in the head. This clearing of the head has physical and emotional benefits valuable to many of our patients.

After struggling for years with disruptive sleep patterns and very bad nightmares verging on post traumatic stress disorder, I took some advice and met Gemma for a treatment. I am not a firm believer in this type of medicine, but was totally surprised that Gemma was able to make me feel very relaxed within minutes of the treatment starting. I have never slept as well as I did following a treatment.
I would highly recommend Gemma and her treatments, not only is she a truly professional healer, but she’s also a fantastic person!
