Treatment Descriptions:
Bowen: The Bowen Technique is a gentle, deeply relaxing, non-invasive physical therapy that frees the body to attain its natural balance and healing. Effective as a structural treatment for specific pain, Bowen therapy addresses the body as a whole. It's embrace often extends beyond the presenting symptom to the healing of underlying physical, chemical, emotional and mental causes of chronic illnesses. The Bowen Technique is safe to use on anyone, from the newborn to the elderly, as there are no vigorous manipulations employed in the treatment. The soothing and restorative effects of Bowen Therapy have been found to reduce physical, emotional and mental stress; improve joint mobility, increase circulation of lymphatic and venous fluids and the assimilation of nutrients; and eliminate toxins.
Acupuncture: Among the oldest healing practices in the world. As part of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), acupuncture aims to restore and maintain health through the stimulation of specific points on the body. Very thin needles are inserted into these specific points and used to increase or decrease the flow of “chi” or energy in the body bringing it toward optimal balance. Once the needles are placed there is often a feeling of deep relaxation.
Cosmetic Acupuncture: Nicole was trained in Calgary under Mary Elizabeth Wakefield in the trademarked Constitutional Facial Acupuncture course. Constitutional Facial Acupuncture is a safe, painless and effective treatment for renewing the face as well as the whole body. Fine lines may be entirely erased, deeper lines reduced and bags around neck and eyes firmed. Fine needles are placed at a variety of acupuncture points on the face, neck and around the eyes to stimulate the body’s natural energies, or Qi. Since muscle groups are addressed as well the acupuncture points, the face lifts itself, via the acupuncture points, through the muscles’ toning and tightening action. The needles also stimulate blood and circulation, which improves facial color.
Chi-Akra: Based upon the teachings of John R. Cross, Nicole has developed a therapy based on blending ancient philosophies from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurvedic Chakra Clearing and Japanese Style Reiki. During this treatment very specific Acupuncture points are used to balance and treat the chakras as well as treat the body’s constitution. Reiki Healing is added to take the alignment of body, mind and soul to a new level.
Reiki: (pronounced "ray-key) is a method of hands on healing that originated in Japan. It is a deeply relaxing experience that eases pain, tension, and stress and balances the energy centers (chakras) of the body. The result is an overall sense of well being and peace. It speeds the healing of injuries, gently re-aligns and detoxifies the body and aids in the recovery from emotional trauma. Reiki healing can provide long term relief because it heals at the source of illness - physical, emotional and mental.
