TRANSPERSONAL & EMOTIONAL RELEASE COUNSELLING
Transpersonal & Emotional Release Counselling (TERC) is a form of counselling that works holistically encompassing mind, body, emotions and spirit. This approach is based on the research, methods, models and theoretical frameworks of Jung, Grof, Pearls and others.
TERC provides a way of self exploration and development. The impact of issues on present physical, mental and emotional states of a person is the starting place for exploration of past issues and trauma.
TERC promoes a depth of self-understanding, the release of held energy, and the development of inner life sklls. This supports personal expansion and growth, and an ability to embrace more of life and of self.
Emotional release work is suitable for both children and adults and is available for individual session and/or group work.
BOWEN THERAPY
The Bowen Technique or Bowen Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive remedial tissue therapy,that has been use worldwide for the past45years.The technique uses a sequence of gentle rolling moves at specific points on the body. The moves stimulate the muscle, soft tissue and energy flow, resulting in a deep sense of overall relaxation.
Bowen Therapy works with the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system largely work with the functions of the body that are not conscious like respiration digestion, heart rate just to name a few. Under stress, the body goes into reactive mode if we take it out of this mode the muscles will relax, the heart rate drops, breathing deepens and the body regains balance. The moves in Bowen are believed to stimulate this response.
Bowen will not interfere with other medical attention as it is known as a complimentary modality and is safe to use on people of all ages, from newborn children to the elderly. The disabelled and chronically ill benefit from the bowen treatment aswell. Pregnant Women can also enjoy the benefits from the safe and gentel effectivness of this technique.
SLM - Stephen Lockhart's Myotherapy
SLM is Steve Lockhart’s Myotherapy, is a hands on form of bodywork based largely on an ancient art of healing from the East. It was made popular by Steve Lockhart in the early 90’s and is totally changing the way pain and injury is being treated.
SLM bodywork is not just another form of massage but a powerful combination of techniques and knowledge that helps rid the body of pain and injury. An SLM Practitioner is trained to know how different muscles in the body are connected and how problems in one area can refer pain to a totally different area.
SLM Practitioners are also trained to recognise when a body requires attention to diet and/ or exercise before it is likely to respond properly to body work. This combined knowledge that forms the basis of a more holistic approach to a problem, means SLM bodywork is highly effective in the large majority of cases.
