I am an Alternative Health practitioner based at Synergy Holistix, a wellness center in Johannesburg. I am passionate about my work, and I have over 20 years experience in a wide variety of modalities including Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Therapeutic Massage, CranioSacral Therapy, Live and Dry Blood Analysis, DNAlysis and Metaphysical Counseling. I hold a Masters Degree from The University of Johannesburg, in the field of Alternative Health research, a Masters Degree in Metaphysical Science, from the University of Metaphysics and a Ph.D in Holistic Life Counseling from The University of Sedona.
My focus is on facilitating healing for my clients and patients, from a body, mind and soul perspective, and the modalities I practice allow a well rounded, holistic approach to my patients health.
I practice the following modalities at Synergy Holistix:
This is my story...
After 8 years in private practice, I stopped practicing the healing sciences and arts, due to being unable to physically manage myself and what was required of me on a physical level. I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease, Fibromyalgia, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Chronic Fatigue. I spent approximately two years in bed, feeling desperate and depressed. I felt my life was over. I was later diagnosed with latent onset Type 1 Diabetes. This was the last straw, and the illusions of my life shattered. Its was at this point that I began to understand the trauma - auto-immune link experientially, and I knew that I had the tools to heal my life. It was a humbling and empowering experience. I knew then that I had so much to offer the world. I focused on eating a clean diet, exercising, meditating and working on self development and facing the traumas of the past. I was managing and THRIVING with so many conditions, it had to have a greater purpose!
This inspired me to look even deeper into the immune system, and the link between the gut microbiome and immunity, mental health and pain management. This lead me to study at the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, the world’s leading school in Nutritional Psychology where I received my certification as an Eating Psychology Coach. In IPE's internationally acclaimed program, I learned powerful cutting-edge tools and protocols that enable me to work with weight issues, body image challenges, overeating, binge eating, and a variety of nutrition related health concerns such as digestion, fatigue, mood, immunity, and others. My work combines the powerful new fields of Dynamic Eating Psychology and Mind-Body Nutrition. The skills I use from this training are a combination of practical coaching techniques, results-oriented psychology, clinical nutrition, body-centered practices, mind-body science, and a positive and compassionate approach to challenges with food and health. Live and dry blood analysis, and DNAlysis complement this holistic approach, as it provides deeper insight into the patients challenges.
I have since studied Metaphysics, which has broadened my perspective in all areas of Life. I am passionate about helping people fulfill their potential by working through the blocks and false belief systems that are holding them back in life. We all know that our state of mind and what we think manifests into physical form, for example, mental stress and overwhelm can manifests as a stomach ulcer. Metaphysics answers the "mind-creates-matter" questions, and I have enjoyed using live blood analysis to prove how a change of mindset, and self forgiveness causes a shift which is seen in the blood within an hour.
