He has worked for the NHS specialising in treating Hepatitis C and HIV / AIDS as well as practising in various private clinics in London, Essex, and Suffolk.

Homeopathy, Bach Flower Essences and Gaia Healing
Clare Phillips BEng, LCPH, RSHom, BFRP
Homeopathy is a complete system of medicine that treats mental, emotional and physical illness. It is one of the most widely used forms of medicine in the world today because people are discovering the benefits of a system of medicine that is safe, effective and treats them as unique individuals. It is safe to use at all stages of life, including during pregnancy and with babies and small children.
Homeopathy is an effective system of healing that assists the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. It recognises that all symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony within the whole person and that it is the patient who needs treatment, not the disease. Homeopathic medicines are chosen to treat the whole person, because homeopaths believe the mind and body operate as one and you cannot treat one part of the body without affecting the whole. Medicines are chosen to fit all the characteristics of the patient, hence physical disorders are considered in relation to an individual’s mental and emotional state. It is safe to use in all stages of life, including during pregnancy and with babies and small children.
Bach Flower Essences work by working on the individual rather than the disease or its symptoms, transforming negative attitudes into positive ones. The purpose of the remedies is to support your fight against illness by addressing emotional factors such as depression, anxiety and trauma that are thought to impede physical healing. They can also be used preventatively at times of anxiety and stress and are particularly helpful for the many people who feel generally tired and unwell without a specific medical diagnosis. A combination of remedies is put together specifically for your individual needs.
GAIA is a form of healing, similar to Reiki, which rebalances the energy systems in the body. Earth energy is channelled through the hands of the healer according to your best needs, bringing harmony and balance to the body mind and emotions. It is a very relaxing and calming experience and can be used to help with mental and emotional conditions such as fear, anxiety, depression, as well as physical illness.
As with many complementary therapists, Clare developed a passion for alternative therapies through personal experience. Following a successful career in engineering, Clare trained as a homeopath at the London College of Practical Homeopathy for four years, gaining a Licentiate of the College of Practical Homeopathy (LCPH) and is a registered member of the Society of Homeopaths (RSHom). Clare is also a Bach Flower Essence Registered Practitioner and an advanced GAIA Healer and runs practices in Woodbridge and Ipswich. enquire

Indian head massage / Shiatsu
Trish Dent Dip. EASS
Shiatsu is a great de-stresser and general health tonic. It 're-balances' the body, improving overall well-being and may resolve many chronic problems, including back pain, digestive and menstrual problems, headaches and other painful conditions.
I work with your body during a Shiatsu treatment to open, stretch and mobilise the joints, as well as using gentle finger pressure to adjust the subtle energy that runs through 'meridians' on your body, releasing tension and congestion. Clients report that they have more energy and an improved sense of well-being following a treatment.
You remain clothed throughout the treatment and I suggest that you wear loose-fitting, natural fibre clothing.
A series of treatments may be recommended, depending on your health status. I work holistically and may suggest certain adjustments to diet, exercise and other lifestyle factors to help you improve your level of health.
Indian Head Massage is more than a head massage. During the 30-minute treatment you will have your neck, shoulders, arms, scalp and face worked on with a gentle yet firm touch that melt away tension, stiffness, aches and pains, leaving you feeling revitalised, yet calm and centered.
A great de-stressor, try an Indian head massage at the end of a busy day if you need to unwind, or to address a more persistent neck and shoulder problems.
Trish has been practicing Shiatsu since 1998 and Indian Head Massage since 2000. She is currently studying a holistic nutrition course with the College of Natural Nutrition. Trish works from treatment rooms in Woodbridge, Walpole (Halesworth), Debenham and Saxmundham and also runs 'Mind your Body', a stretch and relaxation class.

Karen Ferris Dip CP MCS(Acc) Dip Hyp (Dist) LHS GQHP GHR Reg.
Weight Management Programme
There are all sorts of reasons why you haven’t lost weight effectively yet!
I understand these reasons and will work with you to overcome the problems you face to achieve your ideal weight. Hypnosis combined with Suggestion Therapy will enable you to move on from unhealthy thought patterns, from the very first session you will notice a difference in your relationship to food.
Hypnotherapy
If you have an emotional or psychological problem or bad habit you can’t break, or just want to feel better about yourself, hypnotherapy can help you to make the desired change.
Hypnotherapy is a perfectly safe and natural therapy that is suitable for a wide range of conditions from depression and anxiety, to helping to build self-esteem and improve relationship issues. Hypnotherapy can also be used to rid us of unwanted habits and phobias.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
EFT is based on the body’s natural energy system that has been known and utilised for healing for over five thousand years.
EFT works by cleansing and realigning the flow of energy through the meridian energy system, a needle free version of acupuncture, so that any symptoms caused by the blockage dissolve and do not return.
Hypno-Band - Weight Loss System
The HYPNO-BAND could change your life forever. Imagine having the results usually achieved by having a surgical Gastric Band fitted….but not having to go through surgery, and without spending thousands of pounds.
By using the HYPNO-BAND hypnotherapy system I can create a state of mind where you will believe that you actually have a Gastric Band fitted!
You will eat smaller portions and feel full.
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy is a client led ‘Talking Therapy’
There are many reasons why you might be considering therapy, for example , you might be facing, or trying to get over a major crisis in your life, or you might feel ‘stuck’ in an unsatisfactory job, or relationship.
Counselling
Counselling offers the opportunity for a client to explore various aspects of their life and feelings.
Because Counselling is carried out in a strictly confidential and private environment it allows the client to talk freely and openly in a way that is rarely possible with family and friends. Bottled up feelings such as anxiety, anger, resentment, grief and guilt can become very intense and Counselling offers an opportunity to explore these.
What I enjoy most about the therapies that I practice is the way in which I can ‘help people to help themselves’ As individuals we all have areas of our lives that we would like to improve on yet it is not always easy to make the first step on the road to the person we wish to be.
Using an integrative approach to therapy and working in partnership with my clients I am able to offer support and help in a confidential, non-judgemental, caring and safe environment
It is never too late to become the person you have always wanted to be and I would like to help you in taking that first step to ‘the new you’. enquire - or visit my website www.thephoenixeffect.co.uk

Deep healing can begin for a person when the Body, Mind and Soul are guided back into balance and Massage Therapy is a wonderful tool to help guide this process. I bring a holistic approach to my work based on over 20 years of experience.
The benefits of massage first showed themselves to me when I was working as a chiropodist in the early 90's using massage as part of integrated foot care. During this time I was also undergoing a two year period of personal training in spiritual healing, meditation and clairvoyance at the College Of Psychic Studies in London which helped bring together the Mind, Body and Spirit connection.
My life path then took a dramatic turn when I met a Native American Elder and was offered an opportunity to move to the USA to begin a traditional apprenticeship. Over the next 6 years I lived and studied and learnt what it means to live as a 'person of medicine'. This time in my life has deeply rooted me as an individual and offers a solid foundation upon which I base my work.
In 2005 I qualified as a Massage Therapist and offer treatments in Swedish and Pregnancy Massage and will be offering Hot Stone Therapy to my clients from March 2012.
