The word holistic means whole, and within the context of therapy means to take into consideration not only all the systems of the physical body, but also emotions, psychology, energy and spirit.

 

Holistic therapy is beneficial on a number of levels, physical massage encourages relaxation (both general and in the area being worked on), knotted and tense muscles are encouraged to relax and release tension.  There is an increase in circulation to the area which encourages healing and elimination of toxins.  Mobility can be restored or improved to joints previously hampered by tight muscles or general tension.

Therapies involving energy work help to rebalance energies, clear the aura (energetic field surrounding the body), induce relaxation and a feeling of calm.  Can also assist with pain relief and promote/accelerate healing processes.  Also makes you feel better and more able to cope with life's challenges.

Modern living presents many situations which can contribute to stress - overcrowding, traffic congestion, noise, work pressures, uncertainties with home/family life amongst others.  Although some stress can be positive by helping motivate, long term stress can be harmful to our bodies.  Due to the physiological changes within the body during stress, digestion slows and immune responses decrease.  Holistic therapies can assist with the reduction of stress and help return our bodies to a more nautral and healthy state.  They do not replace conventional medical treatment but work well alongside in helping to create and maintain good health.

Good Calma has a wide range of powerful and effective therapies available, treatments are carried out on a mobile basis (within the comfort of your own home) in the Cheshire and bordering areas and also within the corporate environment.

Tok Sen Ancient Thai Therapy

  Tok Sen is a rare therapy with only a handful of practitioners within the UK. Deep relaxation is induced throughout the body with gentle and rhythmic tapping of energy lines and muscles of the body using sacred wooden tools.  The tapping creates a healing vibration in the body efficiently clearing stagnant energy, encouraging muscles to relax and healing to occur.  This therapy is over 5000 years old, originated at a similar time to acupuncture and was originally practiced by the farmers in the Chiang Mai area of Northern Thailand.  Treatment is 30 mins or 1 hour.

 

Crystal Healing   

Crystals have been scientifically proven to generate and emit electrical charge.  When crystals are placed on or near the body this electrical charge can be directed to rebalance the energy field of the recipient and to promote healing. 

 

A crystal therapy treatment can release negative emotions and induce deep calm and relaxation.  There are different ways to work with the crystals depending on the desired outcome.  This is a gentle yet powerful therapy.  Treatment is 30 mins or 1 hour.
