Allergy Therapy An allergy is a condition in which your immune system regards an ordinary, harmless substance such as a food, pollen or dust, as a dangerous invader, and responds to it by producing its own antibodies to attack the substance. This is when you suffer from one or more unpleasant symptoms. An allergy normally causes an instant reaction, such as in the case of a peanut allergy. However, with an intolerance, the culprit, such as milk or wheat, is usually eaten every day. Therefore your symptoms, caused by the intolerance, never improve, and it is difficult to find the underlying cause.Medication may help to treat the symptoms, but not the root cause. If your symptoms don't clear up after a reasonable amount of time, then the root cause could be an intolerance |

Behaviour Therapy Behaviour Therapy is a form of psychotherapy which seeks to improve the way a person feels by changing what they do. It is commonly used to overcome phobias.
Using the principles of ABA, Behaviour Therapy sets out to change an individual’s behaviour by predicting and control the variables that influence it with an emphasis on teaching functionally equivalent skills. ABA is a scientifically proven to be a highly successful approach to teaching children with Autism. The practitioner also likely to employ the procedures of Precision Teaching in order to ensure effective data collection and analysis.
ABA and precision teaching are techniques described here
ABA
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a science that involves using modern behavioral learning theory to modify overt behaviors. Behavior analysts reject the use of hypothetical constructs and focus on the observable relationship of behavior to the environment. By functionally assessing the relationship between a targeted behavior and the environment, the methods of ABA can be used to change that behavior. Research in applied behavior analysis ranges from behavioral intervention methods to basic research which investigates the rules by which humans adapt and maintain behavior.
Precision Teaching
Precision teaching is a precise and systematic method of evaluating instructional tactics and curricula. It is one of the few quantitative analyses of behavior forms of applied behavior analysis. It comes from a very strong quantitative scientific basis and was pioneered by Ogden Lindsley in the 1960s based largely on Skinner's operant conditioning.
Precision teaching is a type of programmed instruction that focuses heavily on frequency as its main datum. By focusing on fluency, the teacher can then adjust the curricula for each learner to maximize the learning based on the learner's personal fluency measurements. The instruction can be by any method or approach. For example, the most effective applications of Precision Teaching have been when it is combined with Direct Instruction[1]. Children as young as five have
charted their fluency measurements and utilized precision teaching to increase their learning. According to Owen White,[2] Precision Teaching "has been used successfully to teach the progress of learners ranging from the severely handicapped to university graduate students, from the very young to the very old."

Biofeedback Biofeedback operates on the notion that we have the innate ability and potential to influence the automatic functions of our bodies through the exertion of will and mind. Biofeedback has recently been shown to give us what had previously seemed an impossible degree of control over a variety of physiologic events. Biofeedback can also be used to train persons to block the pain of colitis, neuritis, and other conditions. Many of these techniques have been scientifically proven. Using a special machine and sensors to record muscle contractions and skin temperature, you can learn to control normally involuntary processes such as heart rate and blood pressure that increase under stress. The machine "feeds back" the efforts and eventually you can recognize and control facets of the stress response by yourself |

Gestalt Gestalt Therapy uses our individual awareness to encourage personal growth and develop our potential, to become whole. We do this by noticing how we are living now and exploring how we may create any fixed patterns of behaviour that leave us feeling dissatisfied, uncomfortable or ill at ease. Gestalt encourages a non judgemental awareness of our present experience from moment to moment. Noticing what we experience ( perceptions, sensations, feelings) and how we behave ( express & communicate) in the present creates an opportunity to explore changes in our behaviour and attitudes now. This may enable us to complete previously unresolved experiences and to develop more satisfying ways of expressing ourselves

Crystal Healing A talking to, non hand-on practice using crystals and gemstones.
Crystal therapy works on many different levels - physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual. It is claimed that this gently remove energy imbalances, therefore may ease clients maladies, an in so doing clients may feel balanced, healed, soothed and energized. We are all familiar with the idea of fortune-tellers gazing into crystal balls and foretelling the appearance of tall, dark strangers. However, few of us realise that crystals are actually used by the vast majority of people, every day. Quartz watches, computers, televisions and many conventional medical techniques would not exist without crystals. We base our entire measurement of time upon piezoelectric vibrations from quartz crystal. The scientific theory Piezoelectric currents are tiny electrical charges which are produced when pressure is applied to a specific kind of crystal. Lighters harvest the surge of piezoelectricity into a spark that ignites a flame. Crystals vary their structure when they are subjected to changes in temperature, water levels (hydration) and they even change colour if you alter their electromagnetic field - we use this characteristic in order to see the black figures on the face of a quartz LCD watch. Water levels are also another factor in the way that crystals behave. Crystalline structures are every where - even in the human body. These are found on the surface of cells and in the cell "battery", the mitochondria. If we experience changes in water, electromagnetic field or temperature, then biochemical traffic across the cell membrane can be altered, as well as the energy production capacity of the mitochondria. Crystals can, almost like a lens, "focus" the electromagnetic fields that surround cell membranes and mitochondria. This means that during crystal healing, placing the crystals on nerve clusters usually found around the chakra areas, could lead to significant alterations in the traffic of neurochemical messengers within the nervous system and thus affect bodywide chemistry. Given that emotions are often controlled or varied by our body chemistry - it is easy to see how crystals could even affect our moods |

Scenar therapy Scenar therapy is a holistic form of treatment which stimulates the nervous system and teaches it to heal itself. Electrical impulses, the parameters of which are similar to endogenous nerve impulses, are transmitted through the skin to the nervous system. Fast-reacting, informational biofeedback means that each impulse is different from the previous one.
Scenar action influences adaptive processes of the organism and helps to harmonize them. In response to Scenar impulses the nervous system releases neuropeptides. They are delivered into the blood stream and broken down into many compounds which are themselves, bioactive. As a result, homeostasis is gradually and gently restored. |

Cranio-sacral therapy This is a comprehensive therapy which can be used effectively for the treatment of many conditions at all ages. It is extremely gentle, non-invasive, and causes no discomfort or disturbance to the client; nor does it have any risks or adverse side effects.
In treating the cranio-sacral system, the practitioner is seeking out and identifying areas of restriction, compression or tension through the body which may in turn be impeding proper function of organs, muscles, nerves, blood vessels and body tissues in general. These restrictions may be the result of injury, infection, inflammation, erncstional tension or underlying pathologies. They may also be caused by the compressive pressures of the birth process. |
|
Emo Trance EmoTrance uses the intention of your mind to soften and release blocked energy allowing it to find a natural route out of your body. It does this very elegantly by noticing what an emotion (as an example) feels like in your body. You then describe it and then observe it soften and flow through and out of your body.
Everything is just energy, what people say and do to us is just energy, neither positive nor negative. How we handle what we receive makes it a positive or negative experience for us and this is determined by whether we can accept it and let it go or whether it comes on and gets stuck… eg the kick in the stomach, pain in the heart, weight on the shoulders. |

Hopi Ear Candling A Hopi ear candle is a cotton tube, impregnated with beeswax, honey and therapeutic oils, that is painlessly inserted into the ear to draw out impurities, relieve pressure in the head and sinuses, and aid hearing problems.
The candles are made from natural ingredients that include sage, St John’s wort, camomile and beta-carotene. Otherwise known as thermo-auricular therapy, the original source of the technique seems to be from medical ceremonies performed by a native American Indian tribe called the Hopis (meaning ‘peaceful people’). Clients are usually advised to remove makeup and jewellery before the treatment starts. Fully dressed the client lies down on their side, with their head supported on a pillow so the auditory canal is vertical. The candle is then lit and the non-burning end is placed gently into the outer ear passage and is turned lightly to seal it in place. The candle then generates a pleasant crackling sound and a warm, comfortable feeling while it draws out the impurities from the ear. After around 10 minutes the process is repeated on the other ear. This is followed by a period of relaxation, and sometimes a facial massage concentrating on the sinus areas. When lit, the ear candle generates a gentle heat which, when combined with the therapeutic oils, produces a light suction action. This is known as the chimney principle, and works by drawing impurities gently to the surface, where they can be removed. Most deposits evaporate and are carried away through the candle ‘chimney’, but some are found in the condensed candle wax residue after it is removed from the ear. None of the candle residue actually goes into the ear. |

Swedish Massage Body massage originated in Sweden. Swedish body massage is the original massage technique involving a sequence of movements working superficially and deeper into the tissue layers.
Movements such as effleurage work over the skin with the palm of the hand producing relaxation, whereas movements like petrissage work deeply. Petrissage movements such as wringing and kneading will help to relieve tension promoting deep relaxation in the tissues and muscles. As no two people are alike, the body massage sequence will be adapted to the client's needs. Areas massaged in a full body massage are normally, legs, arms front of shoulders, abdomen (optional) back of legs or thigh and back. |

Chavutti Thirumal Chavutti Thirumal is a form of massage, which has its origins in Ayurvedic medicine and has been practised in India since ancient times. This is a full body oil massage, but it differs greatly from other forms of massage, in that, to perform Chavutti Thirumal, the practitioner uses her bare feet to carry out specific strokes; some are short, but generally they are long controlled strokes. Chavutti was borne out of the ancient Indian art of Kalarippayattu – a fighting system – which is indigenous to Kerla in Southern India.
Kalari embodies elements of dance, yoga and Ayurvedic medicine and this extraordinary massage was originally developed to heal, as well as to promote suppleness and flexibility, thus enabling the Kalari practitioners to perform their art with fluidity and dexterity.

|
Bio-Magnetic Therapy Bio-magnetic therapy is simple and natural. Magnets placed on the body increase blood flow in a specific area, much as exercising does; indeed often giving a similar feeling of euphoria. Not only does the modern environment shield us from much of the natural geomagnetic field around the earth but research shows that over the last century it has actually declined by 5 percent, yet it is fundamental for our health and well being. Magnet therapy helps redress the balance. |

Trager Utilising gentle, non-intrusive, natural movements, The Trager Approach helps release deep-seated physical and mental patterns and facilitates deep relaxation, increased physical mobility and mental clarity. These patterns may have developed in response to accidents, illnesses, or any kind of physical or emotional trauma, including the stress of everyday life.
Because many of the effects are cumulative, clients most often appreciate and will benefit from a series of sessions. One of the most potents aspects of this method is the ability to recall the feeling of deep relaxation and how it feels to move freely and easily. |
|
Acupressure Acupressure is an ancient healing art developed in Asia over 5,000 years ago, using the fingers to press key points on the surface of the skin to stimulate the body's natural self-curative abilities. When these acupressure points are pressed, they release muscular tension and promote the circulation of blood and the body's life force energy to aid healing. Acupuncture and acupressure use the same points and meridians, but acupuncture employs needles, while acupressure uses gentle but firm pressure and integrates bodywork therapies, therapeutic touch, somatic work, healing imagery, energy psychology, and massage therapy techniques. |
|

Holographic repatterning Holographic repatterning (HR) compares a human being to a hologram - a holographic plate can accommodate millions of images; one only has to change the angle of the light to see a different picture. HR can therefore be described as 'a method to identify and transform non-coherent frequencies that cause us to resonate with life depleting patterns that are preventing us from resonating with life-enhancing patterns.'
The HR practitioner believes that no matter how a problem manifests itself it could be physical pain or emotional disfunction, the underlying issue has to be identified and shifted. This is commonly referred to as an energy block. In HR, a pattern is identified through discussion and a technique learned from kinesiology - a method of taping into body intelligence developed by an American chiropractor called muscle checking. The principle is biofeedback, meaning that the body and mind respond at a purely unconscious level. |
|
Naturopathy Naturopathy treats health conditions by utilizing the body's inherent ability to heal.

Iridology Iridology is an alternative medicine practice in which patterns, colors, and other characteristics of the iris are examined for information about a patient's systemic health. Practitioners match their observations to iris charts which divide the iris into zones that correspond to specific parts of the human body. The eye, therefore, acts as a "window" into the body's state of health. Iridology is a practice that is not recognized by mainstream medicine.
Iridologists highlight systems and organs in the body that are healthy and those which are described as overactive, inflamed, or distressed. These may point to a tendency in the patient towards certain illnesses, to reflect past medical problems, or to predict health problems which may be developing. Since iridology is not a method of treatment, its practitioners have often studied other branches of alternative medicine, such as naturopathy, and used the study of the iris as a diagnostic first step. |

Myers Briggs The Type Indicator® instrument is a questionnaire based on the Myers Briggs model of personality.
This identifies an individual's preferences, which are analogous to handedness. You have two hands. You use them both. But most people are either "right handed" or "left handed". That is, they have a natural inclination to use one hand or the other. In the same way we each have "natural" tendencies with our preferences. The purpose is to make the theory of psychological types described by C. G. Jung understandable and useful in people’s lives. Once it is established what these personality preferences then a Myers Briggs Practitioner can assist the individual to understand their type and in consequence be better equipped to deal with "their life" both inside themselves and in the outside world. “Whatever the circumstance of your life your understanding of type can make your perceptions clearer, your judgments sounder, and your life closer to your heart's desire” - Quote from Isabel Briggs Myers. |

Tapas Acupressure Technique Tapas Acupressure Technique (TAT)
Description:
TAT is one of the new ENERGY PSYCHOLOGY techniques.
Tapas Acupressure Technique (TAT) has been developed by Tapas Fleming, an American acupuncturist, to treat allergies.
It is an incredibly simple and fast technique used to treat the negative effects of allergies, trauma and beliefs. This powerful Energy Psychology healing technique is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine and uses a set of points on the head where many acupuncture meridians merge and enter the brain. Contact on these points opens up a flow of energy that allows the brain to rapidly process and release “stuck“ information, thought patterns and beliefs. |
|
Energy Cone Technique (ECT) This is similar to Meridian Energy Therapy.
It brings emotions and negativities of the client to the awareness of both “client” and clinician. These realisations are subsequently removed (or dealt with) with the express intention of the conscious mind. ECT is non invasive, non intrusive, and may be used as a completely confidential technique. There is no necessity for either the therapist or the client to know details of the trauma in order to effectively release it from the system. ECT focuses on the discovery of Energy Cysts, or Cones, predominantly in the palms o f the hands and the dispersal and elimination of that trapped energy in, through and out of the energy body. It can be applied to consciously acknowledged problems, but more often than not it is applied to the unknown and unacknowledged issues that lie beneath all manner of our problems from stress, distress, self esteem issues, phobias and traumas, and much more besides. ECT may be used alone, or in conjunction with other techniques. |

Radical Forgiveness When we think about ‘forgiveness’, we think in terms of 'letting bygones be bygones. The need to forgive vs. the need to condemn the one who hurt you can become a struggle in which there is rarely a winner. Even if you are able to completely forgive, you probably will never forget, so is it true forgiveness?
Radical Forgiveness, on the other hand, is simple, easy to do and effective immediately. Any one can learn how to do it. You need no special knowledge or skill and, best of all, depends on no ‘guru’. Radical Forgiveness is not really something we do; it is a spiritual viewpoint we are willing to take. |

Meta-Medicine Meta-Medicine means "beyond medicine" — a fundamentally new philosophy of health and healing.
Instead of providing any form of medical diagnosis and treatment it focuses on the individual’s experience of illness and the meaning it holds for them — something medical practitioners rarely have the time to do. Meta-Medicine is therefore NOT another form of "alternative medicine", nor does the "meta-medic" offer any form of "complementary" therapy for specific ailments.

Integrative art therapy Art Therapy is a protected title, and it is an offence if you use a protected title if you are not registered with the Health Professionals Council (HPC). It is also an offence to imply that you are one of the professions that the HPC regulates if you are not.
If you have any doubt whatsoever regarding your regulated status please check direct with the HPC. Insurance cover is invalid if you practice without HPC registration. Integrative art therapy is based on the belief that the creative process involved in the making of art (all art forms) is healing and life-enhancing. It combines and co-ordinates different art forms together (visual, music, performing and pupetry are examples of how wide the range of art forms used can be). By creating art and talking about art and the process of art making with an integrative art therapist, one can increase awareness of self, cope with symptoms, stress, and traumatic experiences, enhance cognitive abilities, and enjoy the life-affirming pleasures of artistic creativity. |

Aura Imaging Photography Using the principles of colour therapy to interpret a photograph.
Colour Therapy aims to balance and enhance our body's energy centres / Chakras and also to help stimulate our body's own healing process using the seven colours of the spectrum. Colour Therapy uses colour to re-balance the Chakras (our energy centres) that have become depleted of energy. Each of the seven colours of the spectrum, resonates with one of the main seven chakras of the body. These chakras are like spirals of energy, each one relating to the others. Chakra (pronounced sha-kra) is the Sanskrit word for ' wheel'. Colour has a profound effect on us on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. If our energy centres become blocked or depleted, then our body cannot function properly and this, in turn, can lead to a variety of problems on any level. |

Allergy Testing An allergy is a condition in which your immune system regards an ordinary, harmless substance such as a food, pollen or dust, as a dangerous invader, and responds to it by producing its own antibodies to attack the substance.
This is when you suffer from one or more unpleasant symptoms. An allergy normally causes an instant reaction, such as in the case of a peanut allergy. However, with an intolerance, the culprit, such as milk or wheat, is usually eaten every day. Therefore your symptoms, caused by the intolerance, never improve, and it is difficult to find the underlying cause. Medication may help to treat the symptoms, but not the root cause. If your symptoms don't clear up after a reasonable amount of time, then the root cause could be an intolerance. Allery Testing is an attempt to identify the root cause of an allergy or intolerance. A condition of this cover is that there is no breaking of the skin involved in the testing process. |

We may or may not realise what is holding us back, whether it's to do with health, a relationship or a job or maybe other choices we made. All choices are made from our particular viewpoint at a particular time based around the beliefs we hold. Beliefs are like programs that have been installed in us like a computer. They come from past experiences not only in this life but in our past lives and from those of our ancestors. These beliefs shape our reality and only by changing beliefs held at all levels, may consciousness shift and a new reality be created. (This is what Quantum Physics tells us). Theta Healing can change these beliefs in an instant. Cover is provided subject to no diognosis, medical or otherwise, provided to the recipient of this therapy. |

This provided the basis for reflex zones and the relative points and connections between different parts of the body. It is well documented that the early Chinese, Japanese, Indians and Egyptians worked on the hands and feet to promote good health and many of the long-established principles developed then are now available to be used in the modern practice.

Matrix Reimprinting Matrix Reimprinting is a meridian energy therapy developed from EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques). It is a therapy that allows you to access and transform painful memories that may be holding you trapped in the past.
Matrix Reimprinting uses classic EFT techniques that are based on the traditional Chinese Medicine Meridian Energy system that has been used in acupuncture for thousands of years. It also incorporates the laws of quantum physics, to produce a dynamic therapy where the results are both rapid and lasting.
Matrix Reimprinting uses conventional EFT which involves tapping on acupuncture points with your fingertips whilst at the same time focussing on the issue to be changed. This will remove the emotional intensity out of a past memory. What you are then left with is to be able to recall your most traumatic and stressful life memories without any emotional disruption or stress, which is extremely beneficial, as negative past memories keep the body in a state of stress and can contribute to disease. However, with Matrix Reimprinting the memory is actually transformed. You can go into any past memory, say and do what you wished you’d said and done, bring in new resources, and create and transform the picture you have of that memory.
