A Little bit about me
Hi, my name is Cathy and I came to find Reiki through my own health journey.
 
For many years I suffered with depression and anxiety, which made my day to day life hard and stressful, not being able to achieve all I wanted to because of these illnesses was very frustrating which caused a never-ending negative cycle. 
 
I was however determined to get well, I tried medication from the doctor and it just made me feel worse, so I decided to try a mindfulness meditation course the doctor had suggested to me. 
 
Through doing this, it showed me how to rethink things to turn my negative thinking into positive and it taught me how to be more present in the moment.  
 
Due to the stress I felt it caused an excessive amount of tension in my shoulders & head, leading to much discomfort and difficulty sleeping. I attended my local therapist for some massage, and she suggested I try Reiki, I did, and I've never looked back!
 
Not only has it helped me to release all old negative thought patterns, Reiki has freed me from depression and most of my anxiety issues. 
 
It has shown me there is light at the end of a very long tunnel, I just needed to be shown that light and how to use it. 
 
So, I decided to become a Reiki practitioner to continue to help myself heal and to help heal others. I absolutely love what I do, it means a lot to me, I love to see how much a difference I can make to somebody's life, it’s so very rewarding. 
 
I used massage a lot to help relieve many of my symptoms including my tension. It was so good to have this regularly to keep on top of stiff sore & achy muscles, it helped me to cope better and relax.  
 
I wanted to bring massage and reflexology into my therapies as I know first-hand how beneficial they can be.
