Homeopathy:
An effective and scientific system of healing which assists the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. Homeopathic remedies work by stimulating the body's own healing power. It recognises that all symptoms of ill health are expressions of imbalance within the whole person and that it is the patient who needs treatment not the disease. Length of treatment depends on the duration of the condition and the response of the individual's immune system. Homeopathy can treat most ailments, here are a few examples:
• skin conditions (acne, psoriasis, eczema, warts)
• arthritis
• migraines
• menopausal symptoms
• menstrual problems
• depression
• phobias, panic attacks
• grief
• dementia

Reflexology:
Reflexology is an ancient form of healing which treats the whole body through the feet (or hands).  The internal body structures and organs are mirrored on the feet, with every part of the body having a corresponding reflex point on each foot (or hand).  By using specific pressure techniques on the feet (or hands) the whole body can be treated. 

A detailed medical history will be taken at the initial consultation.  Reflexology is not painful and promotes a feeling of relaxation and harmony. 

Consultation fees:

A detailed medical history will be taken during the initial consultation to establish the correct selection of oils from the vast numbers available. 

The oils are chosen to suit the clients needs.

Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is a 2,000 year old method of using very fine needles to regulate the 14 meridians (energy pathways) and Qi (the energy itself) of the body. 

Acupuncture can treat a wide range of complaints- muscular and joint pains, sports injuries, gynaecological problems, headaches and migraine, poor circulation, digestive disorders, respiratory illness, mental and emotional problems, depression,  general feeling of being run down, feeling tired all the time. Virtually any condition can be helped with acupuncture. 

Acupuncture does not treat a symptom in isolation, it also seeks to address the underlying imbalance which allowed the symptom to occur. This means that, as well as an improvement in the main symptom, people notice that they also feel better in themselves. 

Initial consultation takes 2 hrs, when a full history of your main complaint, medical history, diet and lifestyle will be taken, followed by a small treatment.
Subsequent treatments take 1 hour. 

Consultation Fees:
First full consultation and treatment      £50
Follow-up treatments                          £35
Please give at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel an appointment or a fee may be charged. 

I also offer a free 20 minute consultation, if you wish to find out if acupuncture is appropriate for your condition, or find out more before you undertake a course of treatment.

Hypnotherapy:
Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis to bring about desired self-improvement and goal achievement.

The reason that sometimes we feel depressed, angry or stressed is not because we make a conscious decision to feel that way, it is a subconscious response.  Hypnotherapy deals directly with the subconscious mind, which is why it is so quick and effective at helping people with stress, anxiety or depression to get back to their normal self.  For the same reason, hypnotherapy creates lasting change with

•  Smoking
•  Weight Control
•   Sports Performance
•   Performing arts
•   Memory improvement
•   All phobias
•   Stress
•   Anxiety
•   Depression
•   Exam nerves
•   Driving tests
•   Pain control
•   Insomnia
•   IBS

What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of mind which can be achieved by 99% of people.  All hypnosis is self hypnosis.  There is no form of unconsciousness and you cannot be made to do anything that you do not want to do. It is a state of relaxation and you can terminate it at will, although most find the experience thoroughly enjoyable. 

Quit Smoking Programme
The Quit Smoking Programme does not necessitate a consultation since it can be dealt with effectively in one 2-hour session.  Before your Quit Smoking Programme session, you will receive a detailed questionnaire and a special CD with one motivational track and one self hypnosis track to really get you ready for the big day.  The cost of this award winning programme is just £150.

Free Consultation
A free consultation is required for everything (except the Quit Smoking Programme) which lasts up to an hour, during which Duncan will establish with you:

•  What changes you want to make
•  If hypnotherapy can help you
•  Why you feel and behave the way you do
•  The number of sessions needed to create lasting change

 The cost of a session is £55 although Duncan like most hypnotherapists doesn’t turn anyone away for financial reasons.
