TESTIMONIALS
" I just had a beautiful healthy boy .During my pregnancy from the 2nd trimester I received every week a reflexology treatment with Carmen,I found these treatments extremely helpful , I had a very healthy pregnancy, no swelling or pain for the whole 9 months, Carmen's treatments made feel so relaxed , I strongly believe reflexology is a great help during pregnancy , neither to say that I did received reflexology before when I had migraines and back pain and found it very effective.
Carmen is a very trustworthy , reliable and extremely good reflexologist."
"I have completed 4 sessions of Reflexology. The reason I came for Reflexology was because I was suffering from repeated kidney infections over a number of weeks.
I really enjoyed the treatments, and found them very relaxing.
I found I have learned to relax myself and slow down in mind and body.
A big thank you Carmen, you gave the best of yourself to me in the treatments.
I will have more treatments, and I look forward to coming to Carmen to be treated."
"I completed 6 sessions of Reiki which I found were an excellent relief for stress and headache.
I found the treatments very relaxing, and while I was tired afterwards, I found my head very clear immediately after the treatment and the following days.
Carmen is very good explaining the concepts of Reiki, especially the Chakras, every point.
I found Carmen serene herself, and the music contributed to this serenity.
I intend to return to try some alternative treatments."
"I went to Carmen for my treatments for pain in my lower back .She is wonderful at her job and I come away every time feeling 100 per cent better.
She gives great value for money as she doesn't rush through the treatment like in other therapy places I have been to .
Her consulting room is so relaxing and comfortable that you feel relaxed immediately.
I would recommend Carmen's treatments to everybody."
"I received Reflexology for stress related Asthma and also for allergies. I found it great in alleviating the symptoms and also for relaxation and reducing stress.
I would highly recommend it to anyone as I really find in helps."
There was a nice relaxed atmosphere made by the therapist with relaxing music and burning incense.
After the first treatment I didn't notice any benefits but as the treatments progressed I found my sinuses to clear and I have not had a migraine in a few weeks.
I used to suffer from a stiff and sore neck but since the treatments I haven't had trouble with my neck.
I found during the treatments my sleep pattern was disturbed but didn't last long and now my sleep patterns are fine.
I find I have more energy in the evenings after work and instead of sitting watching TV and snoozing of I go for walks and to the gym.
I found I did get upset a lot easier than I would have and seen I had few personal issues to sort out.
After my 5 sessions the benefits I got from Indian Head Massage are: I don't suffer from sinuses everyday and if I am blocked up it's only for a while in the morning and clears up quickly; my migraines are not as frequent and my neck only bothers me when I have a migraine and it's fine other than that; I'm not as tired after work."

“Carmen is very professional and provided me with a lot of information before and after the treatment.
The treatment itself was very thorough. Apart from being very professional Carmen has the personal touch that brings me back to her service again and again.
I would recommend her service.”

COURSE OF TREATMENTS
A course of treatments is defined as a fixed number of regular treatments.
This number will vary depending on different factors.
Generally speaking, the longer a condition has been in the body, the longer it will take to correct it.
A condition does not appear overnight, and so it will not disappear overnight either.
In such cases it is recommended that the client receives a course of treatments.
Another factor to keep in mind is the own body self-healing ability.
The vital force is intelligent and so is the body through which it manifests; always striving for health and well-being.
How good the client’s healing ability is, will determine to some extend the amount of treatments that he/ she will need before noticing an improvement in their condition.
The course of treatment will vary depending on the body’s needs, plus is not unusual not to notice improvement after the first and second treatment.
Some people may need three sessions to relieve the main symptoms of their condition, whereas others may need five or six sessions inside a month, followed by maintenance sessions for some time afterwards.
For acute stages of disease, three treatments a week would be advisable, having in mind that the treatment will be shorter, about 30 minutes, but this can change depending on personal circumstances.
For chronic stages of disease, the course of treatments will be done once a week for up to six weeks and the duration of the treatment will be 60 minutes, again depending on personal circumstances.
As the sessions progress, is the client the one that is on the driving seat. Payments are made at each session and suitable gaps between them are chosen to suit the needs of the client.Often, clients might need to attend another therapist; e. g. a nutritionist, counsellor, herbalist….…to assist them in their journey to health. These sessions often happen in parallel with the treatments. This is a client’s choice and unfolds as treatment progress.
One of the things that I do not believe is on creating a level of dependence on me, the therapist. ….. As result I am always happy when the client decides that they have got what they needed from the therapy for the present and rebook when they feel they need another session - or indeed, they are happy to move on.

THE HEALING CRISIS - THE HEALING PROCESS
Also known as the "Herxheimer Reaction", this reaction occurs when the body tries to eliminate toxins at a faster rate than they can properly disposed of.
The more toxic one's systems are, the more severe the detoxification, or healing crisis.
Many acute reactions, while uncomfortable, even painful, can be a sign of a healthy body throwing off its diseased state.
The healing crisis is any of a wide range of cute symptoms which may occur during the course of healing.
In holistic medicine, crisis has its original meaning: a turning point; the turning point from disease to health.
So though, on first inspection it might seem that the treatment is not working, or is even making the client worse, these symptoms are a signal that the innate healing ability has been stimulated and healing is taking place.
This range of symptoms may be physical, emotional and mental.

This reactions to the treatment MAY or MAY NOT happen. If a reaction occurs, will vary according to the individual.
Such reactions are temporary and can occur immediately, or within several days, or even several weeks of a detox.
The worst of the symptoms lasts as little as a few hours or as long as three or four days.The common pattern is for the client to reach a plateau, followed by a healing crisis, again building to a plateau.
Remember that complementary medicine will address the root cause of the disease and symptoms might get worse before getting better.
IMPORTANT: Always ensure your health by having a through medical check up.Do not assume that if you have any of the above symptoms that you are in a healing crisis. You may not be in a healing process, you may have a medical health problem.
