Caring for your Mind, Body & Spirit with Reflexology, Indian Head Massage, Angelic Reiki, Flower Essences and D-tox Foot Spa.
Welcome to Heather Clarke - Holistic Therapist
‘Life is a journey of self discovery’
How are you feeling today?
Not feeling 100%, a bit below par, stressed beyond words, in pain due to injury or arthritis, depressed because you can’t get pregnant, overworked? As you’re doing a search for a therapist you’re probably feeling you need some help or support with a physical, mental, or emotional issue but perhaps you’re not quite sure what would be the best type of therapy for you.
How can I help you?
My passion is working together with clients on a one to one basis to help them achieve their aims of a more positive, relaxed and healthy life. Holistic means the whole person – Mind, Body and Spirit and I work with clients incorporating all these aspects of their wellbeing.
Where?
I have a comfortable, quiet, peaceful room at my home in Duston, the ideal place to start to relax. It’s in easy reach of Northampton and the surrounding towns and villages on the West side of Northampton (eg Harlestone, Harpole, Kislingbury, The Bramptons, Nether Heyford, Bugbrook, Rothersthorpe, Blisworth, Daventry and Towcester).
What Happens?
At the initial consultation I would find out what your issue is and then work with you using one or more of the therapies to help you achieve your goal of, for example, pain reduction, to be less stressed and more relaxed. If, for example, you’re suffering with headaches I may suggest reflexology to help you relax physically and emotionally. If you felt the headaches were a result of stress I would find out from you what it is that’s making you feel stressed. This could be anything from relationship issues, work related issues to self confidence issues. You may then like to select some flower remedies which would help you to deal with these issues at an emotional level. The flower remedy mix (dosage bottle) would be made specifically for your individual requirements. The flower essences are liquid preparations and are made up in a dropper bottle and they’re taken by mouth for 2 – 3 weeks when we would then review the situation. So, you would have a physical reflexology treatment and then you may have a bottle of flower essences to take until the next appointment. In this way you continue your treatment between appointments and the work is being done on a physical and emotional level at the same time.
Alternatively, I may suggest an Indian Head Massage to help relieve the physical muscle tension around the head and shoulders which may be the cause of the headaches. I would help you to find out if your problem is due to poor posture or perhaps how you sit at your desk and work at your computer or how you sit to drive your car. Again, it may be appropriate to have some flower essences made up to help to reduce the pain and tension.
All of the treatments I offer are gentle and non-invasive and I work at your pace, dealing with issues as you’re ready to face them, at the pace you’re willing to tackle them. I have other supportive measures such as techniques you can learn to use on a day to day basis to help you deal with stressful situations in your life.
Who Am I?
I have been a therapist for over 10 years and during that time I’ve seen my clients discover how to change their lives around. They start to understand why they have physical problems and how to overcome them on a physical and emotional level. They start to recognise the importance of continuing treatments as part of their improved lifestyle in order to maintain a healthy balance even during stressful times because they have a stronger mental attitude, a stronger immune system and a fitter physical body. Some of my clients have chosen to continue to have treatments with me for many years, following the old adage ‘prevention is better than a cure’.
What Would You Like To Do?
If you would like me to help you with your problem then give me a call and book an appointment. If you mention that you found my details on Natural Therapy Pages I’ll provide your first flower essence dosage bottle free of charge (normal price £5).
I have given a few more details below about the therapies I offer but if you want to know more then give me a call or send me your question by email.
Reflexology
A relaxing treatment that stimulates the ‘reflex points’ on the feet (or hands) to encourage the body’s own healing processes. Reflexology helps the body to heal itself by relieving stress and tension. It helps to improve blood and lymph flow and increases the body’s state of relaxation. Reflexology helps the body return to its natural well-balanced state.
Vertical Reflexology
This new method of Reflexology, developed by Lynne Booth in mid 1990’s, treats the reflexes on the top of the foot whilst the client stands up. It is especially beneficial for orthopaedic, endocrine and fertility problems. A full treatment can be done in 20 minutes but it is usually given as part of a conventional Reflexology treatment.
Indian Head Massage
A western adaptation of the Indian Head Massage which has been used by families in India for generations. The treatment involves massaging the upper back, upper arms, shoulders, neck, scalp and face. It reduces muscular and nervous tension, aiding the removal of toxins. It also improves the condition of the scalp and hair. By inducing a heightened state of relaxation it helps to relieve headaches, migraines, eyestrain and insomnia.
Angelic Reiki
Angelic Reiki healing is a safe and natural way of treating many conditions. The healing energy deals with the root cause of the problem rather than the effect or symptom, whether that is at the physical, emotional, mental or spiritual level. It can be used alongside orthodox medicine and other complementary or holistic therapies. It is suitable for everyone including pregnant women, babies and children. Angelic Reiki balances the body and restores energy. It benefits conditions such as stress, tiredness, anxiety, depression and many medical illnesses including acute and chronic conditions.
Flower Essences
Flower essences are a safe, natural way of dealing with negative emotions. You do not need to be physically ill to benefit as many of us go through times of emotional difficulty, stress and fatigue which allows negative thoughts to creep in. If this situation is maintained then in time physical symptoms will appear. The remedies help restore a positive attitude and emotional balance. They are safe to use for anyone including adults, children, during pregnancy, babies and also for pets and plants. I use both Bach Flower Remedies and Australian Bush Flower Essences.
D-Tox Foot Spa
The relaxing treatment involves placing your feet into a spa bowl filled with warm salted water for 30 minutes. An energizing cartridge creates a flow of electrons which starts rebalancing your body’s bio-energy which ‘kick starts’ the removal of unwanted toxins. Your body’s natural ability to remove waste matter can be reduced due to illness, stress, accident, injury or exposure to toxic/polluted environments. The results of the relaxing treatment will be renewed energy levels, both physical and mental, with a general feeling of well being.
Clinical trials have shown significant improvement for conditions such as:
- Psoriasis
- Eczema
- Leg and Lymph Odema
- Circulation to the limbs
- Hyperhidrosis (sweaty hands and feet).
