The word ‘holistic’ is derived from the Greek word for whole. As a qualified, experienced therapist and counsellor, I understand the importance and value of an approach that involves the whole body. Holistic therapy is designed to enhance physical and mental health and wellbeing and it can be used to tackle a broad spectrum of symptoms and signs. If you’ve been finding life tough, or you simply long to feel more relaxed, confident, and calm, why not get in touch and find out more about holistic therapy in Bristol?
Holistic therapy in Bristol
Holistic therapy focuses on the entire body, rather than zoning on specific body parts or individual symptoms. As an experienced holistic therapist, I look to work out and identify potential underlying causes of physical, social or psychological upset and determine solutions that will bring about positive changes in emotional, mental and physiological health.
I offer an array of holistic therapies, which are beneficial for people who suffer from a range of health conditions and symptoms. These therapies include:
Holistic Swedish massage
Swedish massage has been used for well over a century. Originally developed to enhance the performance of Swedish gymnasts, the techniques have far-ranging benefits for the body and mind. Utilising actions that feature in both Chinese and Greek massage, holistic Swedish massage helps to increase circulation, soothe aches and pains, eliminate knots and tension and induce calm and relaxation. I adapt the way I work according to the individual client, using soft, gentle techniques combined with firmer, more intensive movements.
Indian head massage
Indian head massage has been used to alleviate pain, improve internal balance and bring about calm for more than 1,000 years. This form of holistic therapy offers a host of benefits, from reduced tension and stress relief to joint pain, jaw pain and tinnitus management.
Reflexology
Reflexology is a form of therapy, which works on the premise that every body part is linked to a specific zone on the feet. By targeting specific pressure points, I can focus on ailments and symptoms, as well as enhancing overall wellbeing.
Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy massage involves using carefully-selected oils made from plant essences to relax the body and mind. This form of holistic therapy is hugely beneficial for those who experience stress, anxiety and sleep troubles.
