Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council

without comments

I am extremely pleased to be able to announce that Brighton Holistics has just become registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). CNHC is the UK regulator for complementary healthcare practitioners.

The purpose of the CNHC Register is to enhance public safety, by giving the general public access to a list of practitioners that have been independently assessed as meeting national standards of competence and practice.

The CNHC quality mark provides an independent seal of approval to well-qualified, responsible professionals in the complementary healthcare field.

HYDROTHERM @ Brighton Holistics

without comments

Hydrotherm logo

Hydrotherm is a very relaxing form of massage that differs from other types of massage in that it is carried out with the client lying face up on two cushions that are filled with warm water, heated to between 30-40 degrees.

This ensures the whole of the client’s back is in contact with the heat and is ideal for those who find lying face down uncomfortable.

I use massage oil and slide his hands between the client’s body and the cushions. This means the pressure is upwards rather than downwards and so works against the body’s weight.

The water supports the body and the heat from the water enables tight muscles to begin to relax before the massage even starts. The system is designed to give perfect spinal alignment whilst in this position.

Hydrotherm is suitable for all ages and it is particularly suitable in the later stages of pregnancy.

Hydrotherm can be useful in the context of medical conditions such as MS, ME, arthritis and muscle strains, as well as helping with postural correction.

The training/treatment room at Brighton Holistics is a wonderful, peaceful place with stunning panoramic views over the Sussex Downs with the coastline as a backdrop, a great place to enjoy a workshop. I believe that training is better carried out in small groups therefore I only train up to a maximum of 4 people at a time, meaning time can be maximized to its full potential.

All our courses are fully accredited and carry 8 to 16 CPD (Continuous Professional Development) points to enable therapists and practitioners to add new skills to their existing practice. What’s more, you don’t need an Anatomy & Physiology (A&P) qualification to attend these workshops or to obtain insurance once qualified.

Courses are excellent value for money, fully insurable and recognised by the Complementary Medical Association (CMA), Brighton Holistics is a Complementary Medical Association (CMA) Registered College (BH-250907). The CMA accredits all workshops trained at Brighton Holistics.

On the day of the course a comprehensive training manual will be given to you explaining the whole training day including all relevant A&P needed for that therapy.

Once we have gone through the training and I am satisfied that you meet the standard laid down by the accreditation bodies you will receive a professional Diploma Certificate.

Here at Brighton Holistics I understand and am sympathetic to all learning difficulties, and one on one workshops are also offered.

If you have any questions please give me a call.

Why choose Holistic Health?

without comments

Why choose Holistic Health?

The holistic approach to health takes into account the entire person and his or her environment.  People who subscribe to a holistic approach to health see an intimate and unbreakable connection between mind, body, and spirit.  As a result, they take a great deal of responsibility for their own well being. They understand and accept the fact that their health and vitality are determined both by their environment and how they choose to live their lives within that environment.

Because the holistic approach assumes a strong connection between mind, body, and spirit, persons who adopt holistic health practices tend to have very complex ideas about the prevention and treatment of illness.  They do not assume that conventional, Western medicine, is the only, or best, approach available for the treatment of illness.  Instead, they tend to be open to a wide range of alternative healing therapies.  Brighton Holistics website highlights many of these therapies. 

Our bodies reflect what is going on in our lives. Every ache, every pain and even accident is a symptom indicating an area of our lives where we need to pay attention and even possibly make changes. As we think, so we become, therefore, as we have become so we can see how we have been thinking. By listening to what the body is trying to tell us we can heal the cause and subsequently, the effect of the problem. Our bodies are like the black box on an airplane, they record every emotional experience. When the body/mind is out of balance, it is reflected in the immune system and we become susceptible to illness. However, the moment we begin to understand this process and work with it, the healing begins.
