Treatments are carried out by a fully qualified and accredited therapist.
The main treatment aim is to get the body to focus on its own imbalances so it can repair itself through a series of protocols of
“searching – thinking – challenging – comparing – testing – asking – proving”
Then we can then evaluate the body’s chemical, psychological and psychological and physiology responses.

An ancient energetic abdominal massage based on traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theories that our internal organs control and enhance our psychology and physiology. The treatment helps to create space between organs; increases the flow of new oxygenated blood into the area and helps to move stagnation.
TCM teaches us about the correlation between organs and the emotions. Spleen (Worry), Lungs (Grief), Heart (Joy), Liver (Anger), Kidneys (Fear and Fright). Stress is also a big factor in affecting our abdominal organs and digestive system.
