Services
....................................................................
Bowen Technique
Bowen Technique is a treatment relied on by the well known explorer and TV personality Bear Grylls and many others including Henry Wyndham the Chair of Sothebys, many major football teams, a wide variety of GB athletes and many, many more. It is a gentle touch therapy which compares very well in effect with chiropractic, osteopathy and physiotherapy. However Bowen is a holistic therapy and does not claim to treat specific conditions, instead it aims to bring the body as a whole into balance thus improving overall health.
....................................................................
Neurostructural Integration Technique (NST)
Neurostructural Integration Technique (NST), generally accepted as representing Tom Bowen's later work and widely referred to in Australia as soft-tissue chiropractic or soft-tissue osteopathy because of its similar effect, is also offered. Certified Advanced Practitioners combine structural bodywork with other techniques such as applied kineseology thought by many to enable assessment and balancing of perceived chemical and emotional blocks to health also.
....................................................................
Clinical Reflexology
Clinical Reflexology is a holistic therapy generally carried out on the feet but which can also be carried out on the hands and even the ears. Like Bowen it does not claim to treat specific conditions, instead it aims to bring the body as a whole into balance thus improving overall health. Many clients have found it very helpful in alleviating a wide range of conditions as part of bringing their bodies back to a more balanced state of health and well-being.
....................................................................
Thermo-auricular therapy
Thermo-auricular therapy (ear candling) is also available combined with ear or hand reflexology to suit. Many find this treatment helpful prior to flying, when suffering from sinus issues, wax build-up (e.g. DJs), and so on.
....................................................................
Emmett techniques
Emmett techniques are integrated into any treatment where it is deemed helpful, as intended by Ross Emmett the technique's developer.
These therapies help relieve stresses within the body and trigger the body's own healing systems by drug free means.
Kathryn's particular interest is in clients who have medical conditions of long standing from which they are seeking relief, or where they are under a rehabilitation programme to help them get their lives back. Whilst clearly you should always consult your GP for medical advice sometimes you will reach a point where you are told there is nothing further that can do to alleviate the symptoms other than prescribe a variety of drugs, often with a wide range of side-effects, or offer advice on lifestyle changes. Depending on the symptoms and your own preference for treatment type any of the treatments offered by Time for Me (of Kenilworth) may offer relief from your symptoms as each aims to trigger the body's own healing system to start making its own adjustments. Not a holy grail, you will know within one or two treatments whether or not you are experiencing a change in your symptoms be they pain, stiffness, inflammation, etc.
About Kathryn Phillips
BSc(hons) BTPA cert ECBS PRM MAR IIR regd TATh
Clinical Reflexologist, Certified Advanced NST Bowen practitioner and Thermo-Auricular therapist
After graduating with a Bachelor of Science with honours and a career in corporates in London Kathryn moved with her husband to the Midlands in 1992 to work in other sectors. Her two daughters suffered from allergies and other health conditions from birth. This experience led Kathryn to explore complementary therapies which can supplement and support conventional medical practice - she has been doing this since 1995!
Kathryn is a fully qualified and very experienced full time Complementary Therapist practising Reflexology, Thermo-Auricular Therapy (Ear Candling) and NST Bowen technique.
Kathryn trained with the world-renowned International Institute of Reflexology (IIR) and later with the equally well-regarded European College of Bowen Studies (ECBS). More recently she has trained with the International Institute of Applied Health Services and is now a Certified Advanced NST (neuro structural integration technique) practitioner. She is also a certified 'Rock doc' should you wish to try the kinesiology tape now being used by all the top athletes to help them recover from injuries or support areas prone to injury. She continually updates and develops her skills and is registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC)
Her aim is to deliver results efficiently and effectively within the shortest number of treatments. Although many of her clients choose to continue with regular maintenance treatments there are many others who find that they are fine after their health issues have been resolved.
Kathryn runs a clinic in Kenilworth, and also offers a mobile service within Kenilworth and the surrounding area aimed particularly at those who find getting out to the clinic difficult.
Kathryn's clients who range in age from just a few weeks old to octogenarians, and are approximately 50:50 male and female, have reported success across a wide range of conditions including stress, headaches, female pelvic disorders, knee and hip pain, poor digestion and many more conditions.
All treatments offer a great opportunity to de-stress and relax and in very safe hands!

Testimonials
"I have arthritis in my right knee and high blood pressure. Walking was painful and sometimes sitting for any length of time was difficult too. Since receiving Bowen treatment from Kathryn in Dec 13/Jan 14 my knee is now almost back to normal and my blood pressure is significantly lowered. I also feel incredibly relaxed after treatments and am more aware of my body - as if it is telling me how to sit, stand, etc. The pain in my knee was eased almost overnight and the muscles in my right thigh are less painful after each treatment. My blood pressure has lowered considerably and I also realise I am dealing with stressful situations better."

"I suffered a knee injury whist dancing but since receiving Bowen I have been able to now join in some dances in my dancing club. Kathryn, when you do Bowen on my knee it feels nice and warm and makes my fingers tingle. I enjoy you coming to see me, and you make me laugh. After Bowen I go out for a walk to keep my knee fit. It makes me feel relaxed and I feel happy. Thank you very much."

"I was suffering from constant headaches and back pain following a car accident where I was hit by a lorry on one side pushing me into a lorry on the other. For about five years after that accident I found it very difficult working, being a hairdresser. Since receiving Bowen the headaches don't seem to be constant anymore and I don't need to keep taking tablets (painkillers) to get rid of them, they usually pass on their own. Back pain is nowhere near as bad as it was, it comes and goes (I only had three treatments and the last one was over a year ago) whereas before it was constant. "

"I came to see Kathryn in November 2012 for clicking and pain in my neck which prevented me from turning my head to the right. After suffering with a clicking neck for several months and several visits to the doctor, in only two Bowen treatments my neck was cured. I have continued to receive Bowen from Kathryn to address other issues with my body and these too have been successfully resolved. I am very happy!"
