Energy Healing:
Qigong, Tai Chi Chuan and Reiki
Energy healing seeks to balance the flow of a person's vital energy. Being in harmony reduces stress and anxiety and hence promotes their wellbeing. It can improve quality of life, boost the immune system and develop strength, mobility and balance.
Qigong is a branch of Chinese Medicine, like acupuncture. It is also an example of energy healing that is increasingly popular, as is the (possibly) better-known Tai Chi Chuan.
​
You may receive energy healing in the clinic as part of a treatment as well as guidance for practising at home. I am also a Reiki practitioner and incorporate this in treatments as appropriate.
​
One-to-one or group tuition in Qigong and Tai Chi Chuan is also offered at the clinic or elsewhere. Whether you are a beginner or want to develop your ability, we will have something to offer.

Disciplines
Tai Chi Chuan: harmony in motion
T'ai chi Ch'uan, also called Tai Chi or Taiji Quan, is an ancient Chinese training exercise. People practise by performing choreographed sequences of flowing movement. Familiarity with a Tai Chi form grows gradually, promoting a rhythm and ease in your body and mind and naturally coordinated breathing. Therapeutically Tai Chi is proven to increase mental and physical wellbeing and core strength, helping balance and stability physically, psychologically and emotionally.
Qigong: harmony in stillness
Qigong is translated into English as breath or energy work. This simple description masks the breadth and subtlety of personal development practise (called neigong or inner work) inherent in Qigong traditions. Stretching, body conditioning meditation, relaxation training, martial arts, and breathing exercises are all aspects of Qigong. Regular practice develops Qi and its expression within you, promoting health, longevity, and physical and mental performance.
Reiki: laying on hands
​
Reiki is a form of alternative healing that promotes physical, emotional and spiritual balance. I use my hands to channel energy into my clients' bodies, helping them achieve deep relaxation and reduce stress, restoring the natural flow of energy throughout the body, leaving you feeling rejuvenated and revitalized.
