Therapist Spotlight: September Edition

My name is Jakki Hesse and I have been studying and working in the field of massage and alternative therapies for over 10 years. I am based at Amethyst Osteopathic & Complimentary Therapies Clinic in Selsdon and I am registered with the Association of Physical & Natural Therapists. I started on my path of alternative therapies in early 2002 when my marriage was breaking down and it was leading me to re evaluate what I was doing with my life. I started to look at myself and the lifestyle I was leading and it lead me to the wonderful joyful journey I am still taking today, with new experiences and new learnings that continue to help me grow and blossom.My training started with Usui Reiki and I discovered that, as well as self healing this could be used to help facilitate healing in others.  In 2015 I trained in a different Reiki called “Shambala” which has bought a wonderful new energy to my work and this quickly lead me to advance in my massage therapy. I specialise in seeing the person as a “whole” and I became interested in fascia because the whole body is connected through it. I trained in Fascial Unwinding and energy awareness as it compliments what I already do. I now specialise in light touch therapy to help with Scars, this is amazing work developed by "Sharon Wheeler" in America and there are a growing number of therapists trained in this work. I use Zephorium products personally and within my work, all my massages are using Zephorium oils and clients comment on the wonderful smells, I look at my clients as they come through the door and intuitively decide which colour I will use, I normally ask them to then choose a colour from the oils that are out and more often than not they choose  the same colour I intuitively chose for them. I use the sprays along with the massage oils and if people are coming for a reiki session I will use the aura sprays to help move blockages and then ground people at the end of the session. I also use with scar clients at the end of a session either the green or pink oil and have the intention of putting love into the scar and I have found that this really helps with the healing process. I believe in empowerment , building a persons strengths and reminding my clients, when they are unable to remember themselves, that they are “imperfectly perfect” because society states we should be better than, slimmer than, richer than other but I want to help people just “BE” and the Zephorium ethos fits with my beliefs perfectly.  In my spare time I spend time with my partner and my fur baby Bonzo taking him for long walks and travelling in our motor home called Betsy.

The importance of touch for human growth and well being

Massage is one of the most relaxing and loving things we can do for another. Recently more of our lovely stockist therapists are taking the massage oils into hospices, care homes and hospitals. I love it that the oils are being used at such tender times for people who really need to feel reassured, loved and tended to. I remember when I was young, an old lady said to me that the hardest part of ageing was that no one touched her anymore. We all need human touch and if you know someone who needs a bit of love and kindness, why not offer to give them a hand or foot massage. I like to use the Amethyst Crystal and lavender massage oil on hands and feet for general relaxation but for people who are frightened or  ungrounded try the Ruby Crystal with Ylang Ylang. Touch is so important for human growth well-being. Recently one of our therapists told her experience of doing reflexology on a lady with severe brain cancer who was scared of dying. She massaged her feet and the woman went into a blissful state of relaxation, whilst in this state of deep bliss and happiness she passed to spirit. What a gift for both of them.

We welcome all types of holistic therapists to use our products and we off an exclusive discount for all those who use our oils in their therapies. Find out more on our website.

Therapist Spotlight – Fertility Massage

Each month we are going to spotlight one of our lovely therapists who are using Zephorium products. We are meeting such fabulous people, all doing such glorious therapies, that we want to start sharing their amazing abilities with you all. You may be inspired to book a session with them. This month we are delighted to bring you Clare who we met at Cam expo.

Hello, I'm Clare Blake, the founder of Fertility Massage Therapy & Training.

Fertility Massage Therapy is a unique and specialised treatment that combines many traditional bodywork and healing techniques alongside intuition and feminine wisdom. The physical focus is on bringing alignment to the abdominal organs, in particular the womb, but also increasing circulation to the digestive & reproductive organs to enable a nutrient & hormone rich supply of blood to flow freely to the womb to assist conception. Although the name implies it is for conception, a "Fertile Womb" is important for all women, regardless of whether they have a physical womb or not. A fertile womb is one that is healthy both physically and emotionally; so that a woman can cycle, create and be centred.

In one to one sessions; many emotions arise or I can sense which Chakra's require cleansing and healing. My intuition will guide me as to which of the beautiful Zephorium sprays are required to help support and nurture my client through that session.  I use the sprays in a teaching setting too, and they have made the world of difference, in particular when students are receiving their Womb Blessing; I am sure these sprays sing out to me! My students love using them throughout the course, and on each other through practical sessions. They not only look great on our Womb Altar, but they support the blossoming and journeys of each student on my course.
