Complementary
Health Care
We are a dedicated group of professionally qualified therapists providing a high standard of quality complementary health
care.
Being a group enables us to offer a wide range of therapies from three clinics in North Wales.
Many
of our therapists are lecturers and we run a
variety of courses and workshops.
What is Complementary Medicine?
Complementary Medicine (CM) includes many different techniques of treating a patient. These are based on systems practised thousands of years ago and can in fact be considered to be of the original forms of medicine.
-
a
group of diverse medical care practices
-
an
increasing feature of healthcare
-
natural
therapy treatments
-
alternative
medicines
They all have one aspect in common which is that they treat the patient as a whole person rather than treating a specific symptom or symptoms. It does this by treating the life force of the patient at their physical, mental and emotional levels.
Some people used to refer to CM as "Fringe" or "Alternative" because they consider it to be alternative to the "Allopathic Medicine" that is practised by the General Medical Practitioners.
But CM complements the needs of the patient and is a more accurate description as this term describes the methods of healing that treat the complete or whole person. Hence "Complementary Medicine" is the most appropriate title.

Testimonial for Lynn-Amanda -
Learning to let go
Harvey Diamond, a nationally recognised lecturer in the art of healthful living, recalls a life-changing encounter in his book Living Health:
“It was shortly after my arrival in Santa Barbara that I met the most shining example of living health that I had ever encountered in my life, and that incredible person introduced me to a philosophy of health care that would change my life forever for the better”.
In my own experience that “incredible person” came in the form of Alicia Sawaya whom was also “…. health personified: clear eyes, lustrous hair, nearly translucent skin, no excess weight, and an excitement for life that I had not come across in a long time…”.

WHAT DOCTORS DON'T TELL YOU BULLETINS
Dry eyes: A 70-year-old reader is suffering from dry eyes. Artificial tears, cranial osteopathy, acupuncture, homeopathic drops and a number of supplements have not helped. Can anyone offer advice?
Vitamin B complex helped one reader, while another found relief by simply drinking lots of water.
Urticaria: A reader has suffered with urticaria, or hives, for about 10 years now. The itching is worst when he comes out of the bath or shower. He’s seen a dermatologist, but no allergies have been identified. Can anyone help?
Aloe vera products, homeopathy and colloidal silver are some of the suggestions for this problem.

MORE WDDTY ADVICE.....
Panic attacks and tremors: Sue is after advice for her 37-year-old daughter, who is a mother of three. Since her third child four years ago she has never felt completely well, but recently she has started feeling anxious and panicky about even small things. Her hands sometimes shake and she gets nervous twitches in her eyelids. Can anyone help?
Several readers suggest seeing a naturopath. Thought Field Therapy and Emotional Freedom Technique are also recommended.
Colitis: Adrienne wants to know about natural treatments for colitis: “Someone I know has asked me if I know anything about colitis, from which she has suffered for years. She avoids all dairy, wheat, gluten, yeast etc., but the problem still persists.” Can anyone suggest anything that might help?
This week, suggestions include organic apple cider vinegar, Virtual Scanning and Ayurvedic therapy.
Constant nausea and fatigue: A reader is concerned about her 40-year-old sister, who until five months ago was very active and hard working. Now she gets tired doing even the most basic tasks and this is accompanied by constant nausea and muscle weakness. Can anyone offer advice?
A couple of readers reckon this sounds like ME. Ann, however, thinks toxins and pathogens are the most likely cause.
