Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a branch of Chinese medicine that has been used for thousands of years. Often described as a means of pain relief, it is in fact used to treat people with a wide range of illness.
Bowen Technique
Bowen is a gentle, remedial, dynamic therapy which empowers the body's own healing resources to achieve balance and harmony resulting in fast and lasting relief from pain and discomfort. The practitioner uses thumbs and fingers on precise points of the body to perform Bowen’s unique sets of rolling-type moves which stimulate the muscles and soft tissue of the body.
Counselling
The goal of the counselling that Caroline will provide is to afford patients the opportunity to develop a sense of self where they can realise how their attitudes, feelings and behaviour are being negatively affected and make an effort to find their true positive potential. In this technique, therapists create a comfortable, non-judgemental environment by demonstrating congruence (genuineness), empathy, and unconditional positive regard toward their patients while using a non-directive approach. This aids patients in finding their own solutions to their problems.
Caraniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is an extremely gentle, yet powerful therapy. The primary aim is to create and maintain, health and well-being throughout the whole body, and so relieve specific symptoms. Treatments are based around the gentle and natural motion of fluids (known as Craniosacral Motion) which surround the brain and spine but affect many other areas. The work therefore influences the whole body and is not just confined to problems involving the skull and lower back. Any part of the body can be treated.
Crystal Therapy
Crystals are used for their reputed healing properties. In advanced crystal therapy, specially bended aromatherapy oils and sound are also used to help balance the whole energy system. If you feel physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually out of balance the simple, powerful resonance of this therapy may help to reinstate your own harmonious patterns.
Gestalt Psychotherapy
A creative and holistic approach to therapy, Gestalt therapy is a creative and experiential approach that both supports and challenges us to increase our awareness of how we do or don’t get our needs met in our lives. By doing so we expand our potential to adapt more flexibly and suitably to the situations we find ourselves in.
Gestalt therapy is an experiential approach that generally focuses on how we function in the present moment, and helps us discover our own ways of managing difficulties and living more effectively. Gestalt psychotherapy and counselling works with the body as well as with the mind and emphasises how we relate to ourselves, others and the wider environment.

It recognises that all symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony within the whole person and that it is the patient who needs treatment not the disease. Homeopathy has been established for more than 200 years.
