About the Therapies
Although trained in several therapies, Eve appreciates that a gentle and gradual approach to treatment suits most patients particularly those who have been ill for some time. Eve feels that having a holistic appreciation of health and disease helps her to assess which therapy may be most appropriate to start with for each individual patient, and would generally begin with one or two treatment modalities only. However, her expertise means that you, the patient, do not have to decide which therapy may be best for you, although she may refer you to colleagues if she feels you may benefit from additional help, such as Cranial Osteopathy.


Energy Medicine
Many people are not aware that Natural Medicines (e.g. Homoeopathy, Flower Essences and Naturopathy) were originally developed by medical doctors and that today doctors are involved in the training of Natural Medicines practitioners.

Recent scientific research into vitalistic medicine – i.e., medicine which works on an energetic rather than a biochemical level has been carried out by quantum physicists, and is thought to be the medicine of the future. For more information on this read The Field by Lynn McTaggart which details the research of most of the scientists working in this area and explains it in terms the layman can understand, also recommended is Vitalistic Medicine by Richard Gerber, himself a doctor, who wrote the book for his medical colleagues.

Clinical Nutrition
Clinical Nutrition is sometimes referred to as ‘functional medicine’ which means the emphasis is on how the body functions in health, how it may under-function or mal-function in ill-health and how to correct this using diet and supplements therapeutically. This simple fact is often over-looked by the sophisticated technological approach of today. (For example, Nutritional Therapy has a 90% success rate in the treatment of infertility; Homoeopathy has 60% and IVF 20%). Modern medical research is now showing that food has a direct biochemical impact at a cellular level, and modern diets can impair efficient functioning. Eve believes this is a fundamental place to start, as putting the wrong ‘fuel mix’ in your body can reduce energy, upset vital functions and underlie many health problems.

Flower Essences & Counselling
Counselling enables a person to understand their feelings and their lives. However, simply gaining insight does not always remove the emotional scars. This is where flower essences come in. Eve has found flower essences to be the most powerful tools she uses and the most simple, as they can dissolve negative emotions without the need to go through the counselling process of bringing painful memories into consciousness. Flower essences can give you emotional detachment to painful issues and help you access your inner strength. They can also provide wonderful support during a time of crisis.

Flowers can harness the healing energies of the sun and Nature, which is what makes us feel good when we walk in the country or go to the beach, and these energies are carried in water, which has now been found to have ‘memory’. Studies on the molecular structure of water have revealed that the molecules change their configuration when treated with essences and homoeopathy. Since we are between 65% and 85% water using energised water as a healing medium can have a powerful effect on the body and emotions.

Homoeopathy
Developed by Dr Hahnmann, a German physician, Homoeopathy is based on the principle of ‘like treating like’. In other words, if something is making you ill, giving that substance in homoeopathic potency can stimulate the body to mount a healing reaction against that substance. Homoeopathic remedies work on stimulating the body's own healing energies. Homoeopathy can also treat acute problems such as asthma , head injury, infection, stroke etc. and Homoeopathic first aid kits are available to cover many emergencies.

More recently our understanding of how energy becomes imbalanced, and how this can affect different organs has been developed by Paul Francis of The Integrative College. Paul's work has revolutionised the way Homoeopathy can be practised, and he has also produced specialised 'harmonic' remedies which can address the underlying elemental imbalance of specific health problems. Used alongside other remedies, the harmonics can bring quick relief of symptoms, without suppression.

Homotoxicology & Complex Homoeopathics
This is a branch of Homoeopathy which is designed to safely and gently remove toxins from the body. In this polluted age we all store various pollutants in our cells and they can accumulate over the years leading to ill health. Drugs and chelating agents are sometimes used to carry them out of the body but this is not an approach that Eve would recommend as mobilising toxins can be damaging to body fats, especially the brain and nervous system. These methods also fail to dislodge toxins stored inside the cellular DNA and do not remove the 'memory' of the toxins which are stored in our body fluids. Using 'xenobiotics' which are specialised homoeopathic remedies developed to overcome the problems of chelation, is a safer and more effective method of detoxification. Complex Homoeopathics are specific combinations of substances in homoeopathic potency that are based on the correction of biochemistry at the microscopic level.

Kinesiology
Developed by American chiropractors and doctors in the 1960s who observed a link between certain muscles and organs of the body, Kinesiology is an energetic treatment that works through the acupuncture meridians as well as the lymphatic and neurovascular systems. It can be used to measure energetic flow and blockages, food intolerances (thus saving money on allergy testing), and which treatments are best for you.

Naturopathy
Naturopathy has its origins in Germany with the spa traditions. Naturopathy simply means ‘working with the body’ and utilising natural approaches to achieve this. This Naturopathic framework provides the context in which Eve practices all her therapies. She may incorporate Naturopathic Body Adjustment to facilitate relaxation or better posture, or Lymphatic Drainage to help mobilise toxins from the body. Naturopaths consider many health problems to arise from toxicity which is very relevant to us today. Modern research has shown that toxins block important processes in the body and create apparent nutritional deficiencies, which may eventually result in disease.

Hypnotherapy
The ancient art of hypnotherapy is one of the most natural, self-healing therapies known to mankind. It is the key to changing old or unwanted behaviour patterns and creating new positive habits. Whatever you want to do - stop smoking, lose weight, cope with stress, understand relationships, overcome a phobia or simply improve your learning ability - professionally guided advanced hypnosis will help you harness your own strength and willpower, and change your life for the better.

Advanced hypnosis is completely safe, giving you back a healthy understanding of your own mind and control of your own behaviour. A person being hypnotized in this way cannot be made to do things against his own will. He cannot be persuaded to do anything that he would not freely do if not under hypnosis.

Hypnosis enables the body to enjoy a state of complete relaxation whilst he mind becomes more alert.

Smoking and Hypnosis.
Because smoking is also a psychological addiction, tablets or nicotine replacement products fail to address the mental addiction. By creating a radical change of attitude, hypnosis can effectively change the physiological behaviour of your body. The Stop Smoking in One Hour Programme offered by Francis (with back-up from Eve to address the biochemical changes) has an extraordinarily high success rate of over 95%, and is supported by an Aftercare Programme.

Reiki
Reiki is the Japanese word for Universal Life Force Energy and is an ancient system that uses gentle hands-on to promote relaxation and physical well being. It can help to relieve pain and loosen blocked energy and reduce stress.

Genovations
Recent research has revealed that the genetic inheritance accounts for only 25% of disease development and that environmental and dietary triggers account for the remaining 75%. Therefore being aware of any genetic susceptibilities can enable you to make wise lifestyle choices. Avoiding your particular triggers can result in the genetic component not being activated. With this knowledge you can greatly reduce your risk of developing the same diseases as your parents and grandparents. Through laboratory testing it is now possible to determine your unique genetic susceptibility and what you may do to reduce the risk factors. As doctors become more aware of this, medicine will move away from treating diseases and towards truly preventative methods.
