Complementary Holistic Therapist

~ Indian Head Massage

My name is Val Holcombe and I am a qualified therapist.  I am based in department 16. I have a Certificate of Education and am also a qualified riding instructor.  I am a member of the School of Electro-Crystal Therapy, a healer member of the National Federation of Spiritual Healers, a member of the British Register of Complementary Practitioners (Energy Division) and a Reiki Master in the Usui System.

Some time ago one of my horses (Taffy) contracted tetanus and although the vet did all he could within a few days he could not walk, eat or drink.  Medically nothing further could be done.  I then asked a goup of healers if they would send him distant healing.  After the session I went to his stable and, as I opened the door, I was pushed backwards as he walked out up to the water trough and had a drink!  After this initial treatment a healer came to the stables a few times and Taffy eventually made a full recovery.

Since then, because I have seen so many people and animals benefit from healing, I trained as a complementary therapist and have been a practitioner for over 14 years.  Holistic therapies relate to any health problem in the context of the person as a whole, in the inter-relationship between body, mind and spirit.  Therefore they are able to help almost any condition from babies to the elderly.

The number and frequency of sessions required varies widely.  A lot depends on the severity and duration of the problem and the patient’s own vitality and speed of response. Research has shown that most people respond better to short regular treatments.

The following holistic therapies are gentle and non invasive, promoting health and well-being:-

Reiki and Spiritual Healing
These are two treatments where healing energies are channelled through the hands of the therapist to wherever it is needed.  Helping bring harmony and balance to mind, body and spirit they re-energise and relax the patient. This enables your own inner resources to deal with injury or illness at whatever level it exists.  All types of ill health can be helped, all physical and most psychological conditions.

The Metamorphic Technique
As its name suggests the main aim is transformation.  Following a series of sessions people often find their lives really do change – some very gradually and others in quite radical and far reaching ways.

Metamorphosis helps to bring about movement out of old patterns of being.  Acting as a catalyst, the therapist applies a gentle touch to specific areas of the feet, hands and head helping to loosen deeply rooted energy blocks within the individual.  It is also very effective for children or adults with learning difficulties.

Electro-Crystal Therapy (EleCT)
This is a scientifically based method of diagnostic assessment and treatment of energy imbalances.  Using modern technology it enhances the natural healing energy of crystals.

Research has shown that when high frequency treatment is combined with crystals the spectrum of healing increases.

Polycontrast Interface Photography (P.I.P) is a method of photographing and analysing the energy in and around the body.  A P.I.P scan is used as a diagnostic tool to detect your body’s energy imbalances.  These cause disease and correspond with areas of physical problems.  With the aid of computer enhancement these imbalances are seen as colours and a trained therapist can see where treatment is needed.

Indian Head Massage
This is a shoulder, neck, scalp and face massage used mainly to ease stress and tension.  Its main benefit is as a fast and effective technique for de-stressing and calming, used for both children and adults.

There are also secondary benefits – easing tight muscles releasing shoulders, aiding lymphatic drainage to the face, encouraging a good blood supply to the face and scalp and easing headaches, migraine and mild neuralgia.

As this massage is slightly invasive it is not suitable for everyone so please mention any medical problems before making an appointment.

Nowadays in England healers are being employed in doctors’ surgeries, hospices and NHS hospitals where they are bringing very positive results to both patients and staff.  Patients are increasingly requesting complementary therapies as part of their treatment in hospitals and from their GPs.

Depending on the therapy sessions last from approximately 30/40 mins to over an hour.  Prices range from 20 to 60 euros.
