The BodyTalk System FUNDAMENTALS SEMINAR Coming in Spring/Summar 2012 – Morayshire Early Bird Deadline – 1 month before course date, to obtain discounted course rates. Each System, cell and atom of the body is in constant communication with each other. Take Your Practice to the next Level - Learn how to treat Acute and Chronic Health Problems in a 4 Day Seminar. BodyTalk is one of the fastest growing natural healthcare systems in the world, taught in 35 countries and now with over 80 practitioners in the UK. BodyTalk is an astonishingly simple and effective holistic therapy that allows the body's energy systems to be re-synchronised so they can operate as nature intended. Each system, cell and atom is in constant communication with each other at all times. Through exposure to the stresses of day-to-day life, however, these lines of communication can become compromised or disconnected, which then leads to a decline in physical, emotional and/or mental well-being. Reconnecting these lines of communication enables the body's internal mechanisms to function at optimal levels, thus repairing and preventing disease while rapidly accelerating the healing process. In this way, BodyTalk stimulates the body's innate ability to balance and heal itself on all levels. Founded by Dr. John Veltheim a Chiropractor, traditional acupuncturist, philosopher, reiki master and teacher. Originally from Australia, John ran a very successful clinic in Brisbane for 15 years. He was also the principal of the brisbane college of acupuncture and natural therapies for 5 years. His extensive post graduate studies include applied kinesiology, bio-energetic psychology, osteopathy, sports medicine, counselling, comparative philosophy and pathology.

She is a successful manager offering over 20 years knowledge of executive business management services. But it has been her passion for wellness and health that saw Lisa embark on her own bespoke wellness coaching accreditation after finding it impossible to find a course that would fulfil her interests and support her values and beliefs. This challenge was met as she was granted the first such professional certificate from Strathclyde University in November of 2009. Lisa now focuses most of her time on wellness coaching; supporting and encouraging others to listen to their own wellness within and live by their values and beliefs, not others or societies. Through the use of unique tools and coaching techniques, this holistic approach helps clients’ to discover the areas in their life that require nurturing and by bringing this to the forefront of her client's priorities, Lisa believes this enhances personal and working relationships, performance and even existence. This evening will be a fun and interactive session where you will hear more about what Lisa believes are the key influences that drive our inner wellness and balance. You will explore what wellness means to you personally, why we would bother to embrace the wellness culture in the first place and how wellness coaching can complement many different therapies to create optimum health.

The Dorn Method & Breuss DATE : TBC March/April 2012 TIME : Intensive 2-day training over weekend VENUE: Forres, Morayshire IV36 COST : £350 (NEW SPECIAL RATE £320) I have been approached by Jacqui Hamer who would like to teach the The Dorn Method, including Breuss in Moray. I could organise this in March/April 2012 if it suits everyone. Jacqui says “I can also organise that I do the Dorn and Breuss in 2 days but is very very intensive so we would do the Dorn Method earlier on the Saturday, to give more time on the Sunday for the Breuss”, This would be done over a weekend for those of you interested in doing the training. They are FHT accredited. Cost will have to be confirmed, depending upon how much their flights/travel/accommodation etc. are – if we can get enough people interested in doing the training here then I am hoping that we can keep it down to £350. I had heard about the Dorn method but the Breuss is new to me – and possibly you? I have included a little information from their website, below: The Dorn Method - Dieter Dorn was a saw mill worker. He injured his back when he lifted a heavy object, about 30 years ago. He heard about an old farmer who could help relieve his back pain. He visited the old farmer who treated his back by pressure of his thumb and a few simple moves, he was pain free. Dieter Dorn learnt the method from the old farmer as it was so easy. The old farmer not long after died and Dieter Dorn's first patient was his wife who suffered from headaches. He treated her with the same technique and her headaches vanished just like his back pain. Mr. Dorn taught the layman how to help relieve themselves of backpain. He taught many therapists to use this treatment. This was the start of the Dorn Method and is now one of the first choices of spinal and joint treatment in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It is a gentle yet effective therapy for back pain, sciatica, neck ache, whiplash and peripheral joints. It is also well known that there are connections with misaligned vertebrae on health problems. When the misaligned vertebra is corrected often the health problem disappears, e.g. back and neck pain, sciatica, headaches, tiredness, digestive problems. The Dorn Method is so gentle that, unlike some other methods, the pelvis, vertebrae and other joints can be corrected without any risk. It is a gentle 'fix it in motion' method which can be controlled by the patient himself. No force or twisting or cracking methods are used. The Dorn Method has a holistic approach and a unique self help therapy guide that enhances its therapy that gives longer lasting results. The Dorn Method or Breuss Spinal Massage are 2 day easy to learn seminars. Breuss Spinal Massage - Breuss Spinal Massage is a gentle yet effective spinal massage to relieve muscular aches and pains in the back. It is one of the most gentle of all spinal mobilisation techniques making it a safe and relaxing treatment. It is well known for its therapeutic effects on the nervous system and may start the regeneration process of malnourished intervertabral discs, making it an excellent therapy for back pains, slipped disc, muscular tension, etc. It has a wonderful calming effect upon the nervous system, reducing stress and nervous tension. It releases physical and energy blockages and is a balancing therapy for the mind body and spirit. Breuss Spinal Massage is often combined with Dorn Therapy to enhance its therapeutic effect. It is offered to all therapists who have an interest in relaxation and relieving muscular tension in the back. The Dorn Method or Breuss Spinal Massage are 2 day easy to learn seminars. You need to have trained in Massage for The Dorn Method training and then do Case Studies for approval to gain qualifications for practise. This is accredited by the FHT (Federation of Holistic Therapists) but it is recommended you check with your own Insurance Company. Breuss is accredited as CPD points. |
