“Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind, and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the soul open.” – B.K.S. Iyengar

Ayurveda
What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda, one of the world’s oldest medical systems, focuses on balancing body, mind, and consciousness for health and happiness. It emphasizes disease prevention through recognizing the body’s innate healing power.
Modern lifestyles create imbalances that lead to disease, but Ayurveda identifies root causes and addresses them, promoting lasting health. By reconnecting with our inner wisdom, Ayurveda helps us recognize early warning signs, allowing for proactive adjustments in diet and lifestyle.
Ayurveda can assist with digestive issues, women’s health, mental health, fertility, skin conditions, and more. It’s a holistic approach requiring commitment but offering lasting transformation and wellness.

Counselling/Coaching
What is counselling?
Person-centred counselling, developed by Carl Rogers, is a humanistic approach that emphasizes the importance of the therapeutic relationship.
It is based on the belief that individuals have the capacity for self-growth and healing when provided with the right conditions.
The counsellor offers empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness, creating a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. This approach empowers individuals to gain self-awareness, accept themselves, and work through personal challenges.
Person-centred counselling encourages clients to find their own solutions, fostering greater emotional well-being and personal development.

Ayurvedic Marma Massage
What is Traditional Ayurvedic Marma Massage?
Ayurvedic Marma massage therapy is a healing practice that targets vital energy points (marma points) on the body to restore balance and promote overall well-being.
These points are linked to physical, mental, and emotional health, and stimulating them can release blocked energy, improve circulation, and enhance the flow of prana (life force).
The therapy uses rhythmic massage techniques with warm oils tailored to the individual’s dosha (body constitution), addressing imbalances.
Marma massage helps alleviate pain, reduce stress, boost immunity, improve digestion, and promote relaxation, making it a holistic treatment for physical and emotional healing.

Shirodhara & Shiro Abhyanga
What is it Shirodhara?
Shirodhara is an Ayurvedic treatment where warm herbal oil is gently poured onto the forehead, specifically the third eye area, to calm the mind, reduce stress, and balance the doshas.
The treatment relaxes the nervous system, enhances blood flow to the brain, and promotes emotional balance. It can help with headaches, migraines, trauma, insomnia, ADHD, and stress, which contributes to 80% of diseases.
Shiro Abhyanga, or Ayurvedic head massage, focuses on the head, neck, and shoulders, using specialised techniques and oils to promote relaxation and restore balance. This massage helps release tension, improve circulation, relieve headaches, and nourish the hair and scalp.
Both treatments aim to enhance mental well-being and promote holistic healing.

Reiki
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a natural, hands-on energy healing therapy that promotes physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual healing. The word “Reiki” combines “rei” (universal consciousness) and “ki” (life energy), referring to the flow of energy within and around us.
Reiki works by unblocking energy flow, restoring balance, and enhancing the body’s natural healing abilities. It helps alleviate pain, reduce stress, and improve emotional well-being.
During a session, the recipient remains fully clothed while the practitioner gently places their hands on or near the body.
Reiki is deeply relaxing, non-invasive, and can be used alongside other treatments for overall wellness.

Walk & Talk Therapy
What is Walk & Talk Therapy?
Walk and Talk Therapy is a therapeutic approach that combines traditional counselling with the benefits of walking outdoors.
It involves walking with a therapist in a natural setting, which can make the process feel more relaxed and less formal.
The movement helps reduce stress, promote creativity, and ease the flow of conversation, making it easier for clients to open up.
This approach is particularly helpful for those who may feel anxious or uncomfortable in a traditional therapy setting.
Walk and Talk Therapy promotes physical and mental well-being, offering a holistic approach to emotional healing.


Hopi Ear Candling
What is Hopi Ear Candling?
Hopi Ear Candling, also known as Thermo Auricular Therapy, is a natural treatment that uses candles made from beeswax, herbs, essential oils, and honey.
As the candle burns, it creates a gentle heat and light suction, drawing out impurities from the ear canal. The process also creates vibrations that massage the eardrum, promoting relaxation.
It can help with earwax build-up, sinus issues, tinnitus, ear pressure, headaches, and snoring. The treatment is deeply relaxing, aiding in stress relief and improving mental clarity.
A facial massage focusing on Marma points often follows to enhance the overall benefits of the treatment.
