I graduated as a Chiropractor in 1995, and since then I have gone on to study mineral nutrition and Hypnotherapy.
I became a Chiropractor because as a child I found I was able to
make people feel better with my hands. This is my gift in this life,
and I think we all need to find our own God given gifts. I started to
see the connection very early on in my practice, between emotions, the
chemical body and the physical body. This is why I went on to study
Hypnotherapy and Mineral Nutrition.
One of the most successful treatments I do is for weight loss, using
Nutrition and Hypnotherapy. The difference in my treatment, is I do not
require people to go on a diet, in fact I encourage them to eat. Food
and emotion are so interlinked, often starting in childhood. If you
throw Chiropractic treatment into this in relation to freeing up the
central nervous system, you end up with a very powerful and all-rounded
holistic treatment. Often when people think of Chiropractic they think
of clicking bones and discomfort, but this is far from the truth.
I believe that I do not heal the body, but rather I am a
facilitator, I input the energy and adjustment and the body does the
rest. Healing is about taking the first and most important step, and
that is accepting responsibility for your own health. My job is not to
heal, that is the patients responsibility. In the West for too long we
have given this responsibility to someone else. My treatment is
holistic in approach, it tries to educate the person to take care of
the most precious thing in this life, life its self.
I believe in order for a treatment to work their needs to be mutual
respect and exchange, without this there is an imbalance between
practitioner and patient. We are all equal in this world in regards to
spiritual learning, the perceived imbalance regarding physical
possessions, prevents us from seeing the greater truth. So when a
patient comes to see me I do not judge the place where they are at in
that moment, but offer a way for them to see it from a different angle.
