The osteopathic method of Somato Emotional Release (SER) addresses emotional trauma stored in the body, based on the idea that unresolved emotions can manifest as physical tension or dysfunction. SER uses a holistic approach to release these emotions, often incorporating Craniosacral Therapy (CST), a gentle hands-on technique targeting the craniosacral system to ease restrictions in tissues.
Key concepts include:
Somatic Memory: Emotions may be "trapped" in the body’s tissues due to past trauma.
Mind-Body Connection: Releasing emotional tension improves both physical and mental health.
During an SER session, the practitioner identifies and releases physical restrictions, allowing emotional memories to surface.
The therapist supports the emotional release process, helping the body’s natural healing abilities restore balance.
Benefits include:
- Relief from chronic pain and tension
- Emotional healing and improved mental health
- Enhanced overall well-being

Shamanic healing is an ancient practice that restores balance by addressing spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical aspects of a person. It operates on the belief that illness and suffering stem from imbalances in the soul or disconnection from the spirit world, nature, and the universe. Shamans act as intermediaries between the spiritual and physical realms to facilitate healing.
Key Concepts:
Spirit World Connection: Shamans communicate with spirits, ancestors, and guides to retrieve healing energy or lost soul fragments.
Soul Retrieval: Traumas can cause "soul loss," leading to emptiness or disconnection. Shamans retrieve and reintegrate lost soul fragments to restore well-being.
Power Animal Retrieval: Shamans help reconnect individuals with power animals, which offer strength and protection.
Energy Cleansing: Shamans remove negative energies or blockages to restore spiritual balance.
Journeying: Shamans enter altered states to seek healing and insights from different spiritual realms.

Lomi lomi is a traditional Hawaiian massage that uses a combination of massage techniques, nut oils, and sometimes elements of prayer, breathing and dance to restore energy and soothe the body. It is also known as the 'loving hands' massage.
This name helps to explain its principles - the massage works gently yet deeply into the muscles with continuous, flowing strokes, allowing the recipient to relax and give in to the nurturing touch. Lomi lomi works from the belief that memories are not just stored in the brain and mind, but also in every cell of the human body.
The long, continuous strokes of the massage are designed to help the body let go of its old patterns and behaviours, which can cause as many stresses and strains as muscle tension.
Benfits of Lomi lomi massage:
Lomi lomi aims to treat the body and mind as one whole being.
It is thought to:
1. Release tension
2. Assist blood and lymph flow
3. Eliminate waste and stimulate toxins
4. Rejuvenate the body
5. Instil a sense of peace, harmony and wellbeing.
Reiki therapy is based on an Eastern belief that vital energy flows through your body. The idea is that a person who specializes in reiki treatment, referred to as a reiki master, uses gentle touch – or places their hands just above your body – to help guide this energy in a way that leads to balance and healing.
While there’s no research to show that the energy field involved in reiki exists, you may find it relaxing.
Reiki has been studied for conditions like pain, anxiety, and depression. It’s a complementary treatment, which means you use it along with proven traditional medical treatments. It doesn’t cure or get rid of any health conditions by itself.
QHHT is a very powerful tool that helps us better understand our connection with that all-knowing part of ourselves that has been called the Subconscious or Higher Self. When we listen to this part of ourselves, we are able to hear the answers to all of our questions about our health, wellbeing, and purpose. When we can gain this understanding, profound revelations and healing experiences may occur.
Dolores Cannon realized that by using her special Hypnosis Technique, she could connect and talk to a part of a person's Higher Self that was deeper than their conscious awareness. This part, though still a part of them, operates on a level beyond what we typically use for personal interactions.
