INTRODUCTION TO

COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES

5 different therapies presented over 5 weeks:-

Kinesiology—LEAP—Brain Integration:

With Judy Wright

Applied Physiology is a most effective form of

kinesiology using specific formatting of acupres-

sure points, body points and hand modes. Gentle

but effective stress reducing techniques such as

Frontal Occipital Holding, Tibetan figure 8s,

chakra balancing, flower essences and many

others are used in this process. The Applied

Physiology LEAP protocol addresses the integra-

tion issues of learning disorders, but also life

management issues that brings peace of mind as

well as better functioning to young and old.

Counselling, Pre-and Post Natal Massage,

Infant Massage Instructor:

With Anneke Shagen

As a counsellor and massage therapist I come

across many people suffering from psychological

and physical problems. Often they stem from

unfulfilled needs in their childhood which then

are past on to their children again as well.

Learning how to massage your baby is not just

about the technique of massage. It helps you to

bond with your baby, getting to know your

baby’s cues and how to respond well to them.

skeletal remedial bodywork system harnessing

chiropractic and osteopathic intent.

sage’ and enter the realm of therapeutic benefit.

Bowen therapy and reflexology are avenues to

wholeness– come and find out how they can

benefit YOU.
