My History

I had an accident at the age of 16 which caused damage to my neck and resulted in chronic pain which I endured from then until the age of 39.  I also experienced bouts of depression from a very young age, and as I got older I couldn’t understand why I had so many emotional and physical problems.  When I turned 20 I decided to seek help and tried numerous remedies, including:

• Physiotherapy
• Relaxation techniques
• Counsellors and psychologists (8 in total)
• Exercises
• Self-help books

At the age of 39 I asked the Universe to help me find the root cause of my problems and show me the path to find some mental and physical relief.  During that same year my father left my mother for another woman, which brought so much emotional pain to the surface for me I sought guidance from a counsellor.  She was very helpful and enabled me to realise that I had buried a great deal of emotional angst from my childhood, in fact I had done such a good job of hiding my emotions that I never had the chance to process those feelings of anxiety and tension, the results of which had been manifesting in my life both physically and emotionally.

In that same year I became friends with a beautiful lady who was training in a healing modality called ‘Neurolink’ and, in a serendipitous moment, she asked if she could practice on me.  At the very first session she relieved the pain in my neck which was the first time anybody had been able to do that since my accident at the age of 16.  Let me just say here, if anyone ever asks you to be their guinea pig while they are training in their healing modality, take the chance with open arms as amazing healings can occur.

That year I learnt Reiki 1 and have not looked back! It has not always been easy, but on my Reiki journey I have had some amazing experiences and learnt so much.

When I was 20 I had 2 specialists try to bully me into having my neck fused, they said that if I didn’t I would be in a wheel chair by the age of 40. I am now 64 and I have no pain in my neck or back and have never needed to resort to a wheelchair. I strongly believe my good health is a result of to the emotional healing that I have done and the energy healing, including Reiki, that I continue to do.

I highly recommend Reiki as a first introduction to energy healing as it can be used in conjunction with any other healing modality, and will add another layer of benefit to everything else you choose to practice.
