I started reflexology treatments with Catherine over a year ago after having been recommended by a friend of mine and I can honestly say she has truly changed my life and health as it was. I was taking large amounts of pain medicine for neuropathic hand pain following spinal chord surgery and I had limited feeling and movement in one of my feet. After about 4 sessions of reflexology I saw a marked difference in myself; both in a reduction in pain and need for medicine and an improvement in movement. I have continued to come and cannot believe how different I now feel and am, both physically and emotionally. Catherine is professional, sensitive and completely focussed and clear about my health and I absolutely love coming every week. These treatments have helped me more than any other conventional interventions. I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone to come to Catherine, as she is simply amazing. Nicky Darling, Inverkeithing
I
took ill in June 2008 and after a stay in hospital following a collapsed
lung in September 2008 I decided to try some alternative therapy to aid my
recovery and help me to relax.
I
found Tranquil Haven on the internet.
Initially,
I had weekly Reflexology and Indian Head Massages and I noticed an
improvement with my health within a month. I am now fully recovered
but still have monthly sessions because I enjoy them. It's now a case of
"want them" rather than "need them" !
Catherine
is a very warm and welcoming lady and I had no trouble in feeling at ease
in her company. Her treatment room is warm and cosy and there is lovely
chill out music playing quietly in the background.
At
my first session Catherine completed a health questionnaire with me and we
discussed what I hoped to achieve from the Reflexology and Indian Head
Massage treatments. Catherine also keeps a record of results from
treatments so that you can see how your health is improving.
As
a person who would usually have a full body massage in a beauty salon I
was very surprised at how fantastic the Indian Head massage was. The
massage covers your back, arms, face and head - it's just wonderful and a
welcome relief when you are not feeling tip top ! I always get a good
night's sleep after a session. The condition of my hair has also improved
and it's grown quicker too - which is an unexpected bonus !
The
Reflexology treatment is also very relaxing but most importantly it has
helped with my recovery. When I first started having Reflexology I was
amazed at how my symptoms showed up on my feet.
Catherine
has worked on them and as I've progressed through my treatments my
symptoms have diminished to the point where they have just disappeared.
It's really quite remarkable.
Catherine
takes time to explain what she is doing and is clearly an expert in her
field. I
would definitely recommend both type of treatments to anyone who is
looking to improve their health or just want some relaxation time.
"I have had about
5 Indian head massage treatments in the last 3 months for stress, and each
time I arrive for treatment in varying degrees of stress after work, and I
leave feeling energised, revitalised and alert. Kathryn Smith,
Dunfermline "Would just like to thank you Catherine for my Hopi Ear Candle experience, it was very relaxing and worked a treat! After spending over three weeks with sinus problems and after only one session with you, my sinus' are clear. I will not hesitate to get this done again, as I suffer quite a lot with sinus problems. I will be booking my daughter in now, as she is having hearing problems at the moment and I would rather try the Ear Candles before I take her to the doctor." Fiona Martin, Kingseat
Judith
Davidson, Dunfermline "Since reaching that menopausal time in my life, everything seemed to go wrong. I was having hot flushes, my hormones were out of balance, my immune system was low and I was having problems with cysts erupting around my eyes. I was also feeling very stressed at times with my work and found it difficult to wind down. I started having regular sessions of Reflexology with Catherine and it was wonderful. She was very understanding and made me feel at ease. She encouraged me to relax and just allow the treatment to work. She explained that Reflexology helps the body to re-balance itself by gently stimulating the various parts of the feet. As Catherine worked on my feet I occasionally felt a twinge and I knew she had found the areas in my body that had been causing me problems. At present I feel so much better generally and much more relaxed. My hot flushes have subsided and the cysts on my eyes have gone. I intend to continue treatment sessions with Catherine in the foreseeable future". May McArdle, Springfield
After each session I felt very sleepy and had a restful nights sleep. The following day I was feeling very energetic and bright. I was very impressed by the fact that Catherine identified ailments I had forgotten I had! I suffer from a painful shoulder on occasions, but had not mentioned it until it showed up on my feet. Minor things such as blocked sinuses also showed up. As with many holistic treatments, it is difficult to prove the sessions helped my condition, but I felt they definitely had a positive effect on me. I am in good health but would certainly try some complementary treatments to deal with any future problems". Sandra Reid, Dunfermline.
