The amazing discovery for me was that the body is able to store all memories in its tissues, every experience influences the way our cells work and communicate together. So, for example, when we experience joy the tissues can “dance” and after the experience of physical or emotional trauma the tissues might feel compressed (depressed) and are restricted from expressing themselves freely. Even when we consciously know that we have moved on from a traumatic situation - the body remembers. Over a prolonged time this memory can cause many symptoms which can manifest as discomfort, pain, general un-wellness and chronic ailments like headache, digestive disorders, insomnia, fatigue, depression, hyperactivity, back pain and more.

The other amazing discovery was that at any time when the body is able to “tell” its story in the presence of a practioner this memory can be released. After this the body picks up a much stronger expression of health. The energy which was trapped in holding the body in this trauma is freed and aligned.

I believe in the strong healing forces within our bodies which can enable us to reach greater potential and a deeper consciousness. ...Full details

I am a registered nurse and have been caring for people for over 20 years. With many experiences and skills gained, it started to become clear that there is more to healing than conventional medicine alone. The body, I discovered is a complex one whether it is on a physical, emotional or psychological level and has the ability to heal itself.

Over the past 5-6 years I have been gaining information and qualifications in many aspects of therapies that suits all individual needs. My purpose in life is to help people and have treated people with different conditions. This is achieved either in their own homes or if preferred in a treatment room. I work at a Hospice and giving healing in this environment is very rewarding especially when giving a person a sense of better well being and some improvement to their quality in life. My work is enhanced by being a light work practitioner, working with the angelic energy force.

Kicki Hansard

My name is Kristina Hansard but I am known to everyone as Kicki. I am originally from a small town in Swedish Lapland called Åsele , and moved to England in 1990. I have two girls born 1998 and 2000 at Watford General Hospital.

I trained as a Legal Secretary but was working in the IT industry before I had children and was lucky enough to be able to stay at home to care for them. I came across the word “Doula” in a Sunday Magazine and immediately felt that this was something I wanted to do. Having been away from my mother at my own births I feel strongly about being there for others when they embark on the journey of motherhood.

I trained with Kassandra Clements and BOND (British School of Nurturing Doulas) in London, July 2002. This course gave me the extra knowledge I needed and together with my own natural birth experiences, I now feel confident and honoured to be supporting women at this very special time of their lives. I also hold a Diploma in Professional Relaxation Therapy and as from May 2006 I will be studying for a degree in Social Science at the Open University.

In July 2004 I attended a conference in Bristol and had the pleasure to meet Ina May Gaskin who's book, "Spiritual Midwifery" is a must read for all pregnant women. I have also spent a day in Sheila Kitzinger's lovely house outside Oxford on her "Birth Crisis" workshop. Both of these women are truly inspirational and I feel honoured to have met and spent some time with them.

I am a member of Doula UK, which is a network of Doulas run by Doulas, and I abide by their Philosophy and "Code of Practice". I have gone through their assessment procedure and have attained their "recognised" doula status. I am a Certified Doula with BOND.

Linda Lloyd

My studies begain in 1990 when I completed a year's training in first-aid and acute prescribing. I later graduated as a qualified homeopath from the Lakeland College of Homeopathy, one of the largest homeopathic training colleges in the UK. Here I also learned in more detail how sometimes a lifestyle change can go a long way towards cure and there are times when it is appropriate to experiment with nutritional changes or types of exercise. In other cases, the gentle but powerful flower essences can create beautiful transformations in the mental, emotional and even spiritual landscape which ripple through to benefit the entire mind-body system.

I am currently undertaking a post-graduate diploma with Dr Ramakrishnan, Homeopathic Physician to the President of India and author of 'A Homoeopathic Approach to Cancer' with Catherine Coulter.

Conventional medicine surely has its place, but also has its difficulties and drawbacks both in practice and in use. Homeopathic treatment is individualised and considers a wide range of aspects of your condition - physical, mental and emotional states, personality traits, physical features, the effects of a variety of environmental influences, lifestyle, patterns of disease within your family, and relationships. The range of conditions that can be treated is limitless, including those without a name or known cause.

My philosophy is that every person is unique, and I will help guide you to the approach that will be of greatest benefit to you as an individual.

Specialities

Telephone and email consultations - Convenient for those who can’t or don’t want to travel.

Homeopathy: Introductory Courses - 12 hours of teaching over a weekend rendering attendees confident and capable of prescribing for friends and family. Course is backed by the Lakeland College of Homeopathy and Certificate of Attendance provided. Syllabus may be viewed on website. Held in Chesham.

Testimonial

Her style is to fully appreciate her clients lifestyle and recommends changes on the basis of a thorough understanding of what they want to achieve.

After qualifying in geology from the university of Ouro Preto in Brazil, Sophia Smith became involved in archaelogical activism in South America, France, the USA and UK. A natural outcome of this work was her growing understanding of the necessary links between self-healing and planetary transformation.

Undergoing a full biodynamic / jungian psychotherapy has been crucial to her development. As part of this journey towards healing, Sophia trained in meditation and stress management skills with the Self-Transformation Centre in Australia and London and then gained further in-house experience in the teaching of counselling and self-help skills. Further training followed in a range of bodywork therapies: biodynamic massage with Gerda Boyesen, holistic aromatherapy with Robert Tisserand and reflexology with Sarajane Holland.

I have a fine art degree in Sculpture which then evolved into a job working at the Royal Opera House in the Hat and Jewellery department, as milliner, mask maker and costume jewellery maker. Whilst I was there I took a course in Thai massage. I then travelled the world with an Irish dance show as Head of Costume, doing massage courses wherever we were based for any length of time. I had the added advantage of regular on site massage that the company provided, experiencing all forms of massage in different countries, different styles, techniques and routines. This decided me to venture further and study it in more depth myself, on leaving the company. I took a holistic massage course after having my first child, and then an advanced pre-natal training when pregnant with my second, as I had so benefitted from massage myself during the first pregnancy. At any opportunity, I do continue to learn and train further, expanding and enriching my knowledge and understanding of the body.

Now a content mother of two, I work as a massage therapist specialising in pregnancy massage, both from an alternative therapy clinic in Crouch End, , and as a mobile service covering Herts and North London . ...Full details

In addition to my training as a Homeopath I am also trained as a Scenar Practitioner.The Scenar device is bio-controlled, electro-impulse therapy used to provide pain relief by using the body’s own healing reserves. I have found that this is a very useful addition to homeopathic treatment.

Once you are my patient I offer a comprehensive range of treatments: I treat any acute symptoms as they arise as by treating them I can build up a picture of you by assessing how you react to different remedies. I am also available if you suffer any events as they occurr eg accidents,falls or emotional shocks. Homeopathy has a wonderful range of remedies to treat these life events. Obviously it is important that you still use your G.P. as and when you feel it is necessary.

In time you will probably learn which remedies help you and feel confident to self-prescribe if you wish to.

I am also part of a network of other alternative practitioners who I am happy to recommend. I have regular phone-in times which you should use if you have any queries or concerns or acute symptoms (eg a cold or cough) during your treatment.

I am part of a group of Homeopaths who provide emergency cover. Once you have become my patient you will be entitled to use this service every day of the year. There is no extra charge for this service. ...Full details

I have facilitated over 900 Journey Processes in the past 5 years and my clients include well known Celebrities, Actresses, teachers, senior government officials, Chief Executive, and Directors. Like many of us I had experienced a number of traumas in my personal life – the worst time being in 1997, when my now ex-husband was attacked and suffered Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. This took many months to diagnose, by which time we had separated and had both experienced a great deal of trauma.

As a secondary victim of my husband’s Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, I was prescribed traditional medicine to help me through this indescribable time. For me, the side effects of the drugs were so unpleasant that it was preferable to just struggle through the years of anguish without them. I also received traditional counselling, which eventually helped slightly, but seemed to take so long to have any effect. I subsequently attended a Counselling Training Course, which confirmed my belief that many people want to have faster results and move forward with their lives.

A friend recommended a book called ‘The Journey’ by Brandon Bays. I bought the book, could not put it down and then attended a Journey Intensive weekend.

Being a sceptical Sales Manager I did not initially believe anything so simple could possibly work, but I was so impressed by the immediate changes in myself that I felt driven to learn more about it. I made the decision to leave my full time employment as Sales Development Manager to complete the Accreditation Course and the many case studies involved. The feedback from my clients is so rewarding.

I am so much happier, healthier and relaxed about life. My family and friends have seen the wonderful changes in me and have had Journey processes themselves. Even my sceptical sons (now aged 24 and 23 years) are willing to have Journey processes! I wish I had known about the Journey years ago!!

As part of being a Journey practitioner we are encouraged to use intuitively other skills we have or are trained in. I use various tool such as N.L.P. (Neurolinguistic programming), Art therapy, Creative Visualisation which may be integrated as part of a Designer Journey. I have put together various programmes including fertility, weight loss, natural facelift, business stress, woman’s health issues, past life regression. Please get in touch to find out more about these.

Fertility Therapy

Women can become so desperate to have a baby that their lives become an emotional roller coaster and with the body in a perpetual state of fight or flight is it any wonder pregnancy doesn’t occur? For nearly a third of couples their infertility is ‘unexplained’. The answer is to look deeper at lifestyle factors and emotional elements.

Fertility Therapy offers a safe, painless, non invasive, and often immediately effective solution without the use of medication.

This powerful, successful, and unique programme has helped many couples become pregnant. The therapy can be alongside IVF programmes to dramatically increase the chances of pregnancy.

Suzanne Franklin's successful experiences as a practitioner with clients suffering from other health issues such as Endometriosis, PMT and Depression were also often experiencing problems conceiving. This motivated her to train to become one of only 40 specialist practitioners in the UK trained in HypnoFertility, which combined with other therapies makes Fertility Therapy a powerful option for those wishing to have the a child of their own without resorting to drugs.

Often old emotional issues are causing the current physical issue. Fertility Therapy can to get to the root of the problem, including stress or depression, and allows the body to heal itself without the use of medication or anything invasive.’ Says Suzanne.
