1 to 1 Yoga can be used to enhance your own personal practise and is also extremely

beneficial for anyone wishing to try yoga before entering a group situation. Sessions are individually tailored to suit personal or specific needs. Groups of say, 2 or 3 can also be catered for - friends, family or work colleagues.

Yoga, works internally as well as externally, promoting good general health and improving well being. It can be viewed as a therapy based on a series of time-tested poses, along with correct breathing and aiding relaxation. The latter being a huge plus considering so many of the modern day health symptoms are stress-related e.g. anxiety, insomnia and IBS.

Over time yoga encourages a moment by moment mindfulness – we become aware of ourselves on a more intimate level. This helps us to pick up on our imbalances more easily. Yoga gives you the correct tools to assist as the essential mind and body connection is re-established.

Hence 1 to 1 yoga can be used to aid more specific problems, such as backache which is the largest cause of work absenteeism.

Aromatherapy is a natural therapy, which uses fragrant aromas, aromatics

or scents in the way of essential oils to treat a wide range of physical and mental problems. These curative properties are found mainly in plants, and fragrances in particular play an important role in our lives. Fragrance attracts, or can be diffused in the air in someone’s honour. “Extracts” – perfume essences – are actually extracted or alternatively manufactured synthetically. In bygone ages, pouring oil on someone’s feet was a common way of showing respect and throughout history perfumes have played an important role in religious practices too.

An Aromatherapy treatment is of the whole human body - body, mind and spirit - it is very important as the physical body and the minds psyche are closely interlinked. A change in one greatly affects the other. In addition to specific medical uses of Aromatherapy, it is important to promote general health and well- being. A clients’ oils are individually selected and blended according to their needs, and are applied externally through massage. This enables the small molecules of the oil to be absorbed into the skin, where in turn, each of the oils combination of constituents, will interact with the body’s chemistry. The oils also have a psychological affect therefore each and every person will respond differently to an oil blend.

Reflexology is based on the principle that there are reflex points in the feet and hands

which relate to all glands, organs and parts of the body. By knowing the location of reflex points, which relate to each and every organ in the body, a Reflexologist can create a healing process and stimulate the healing mechanism of the body.

The ancient healing art of Reflexology has been known to man for many thousands of years. It was first practised by the early Indians, Chinese and Egyptian people.

Dr William Fitzgerald, an American, ear, nose and throat surgeon introduced this therapy to the west, after noting that pressure on specific parts of the body could have an anaesthetising effect on a related area. Developing this theory he divided the body into 10 equal and vertical zones, ending in the fingers and toes. He concluded pressure on one part of a zone could affect everything else within that zone, hence reflex areas on the feet and hands linked to other areas and organs of the body within the same zone.

Eunice Ingham, developed and refined the zone therapy into what is called foot Reflexology. She noticed congestion or tension in any part of the foot, mirrors the same in a corresponding part of the body. Thus, treating the big toe there is a related effect in the head, and treating the whole foot can have a relaxing and healing effect on all of the body.

How Reflexology Can Help YouThe body has the ability to heal itself. Following illness, stress, injury or disease, it is in a state of “imbalance” and vital energy pathways are blocked preventing the body from functioning effectively. Reflexology can maintain the body’s natural equilibrium and encourage healing. Deep pressure of reflex points in the feet therefore:-

• Reduces stress and tension.

• Increases blood supply to affected organs and improves circulation.

• Helps rid the body of toxins.

• Helps the body to achieve balance.

Since Reflexology treats the whole person, not the symptoms of disease, most people benefit from treatment. The therapy helps bring relief to many chronic and acute conditions, and it is suitable for all ages and will help to bring your body in tune with itself.
