I’m Phillippa, mum of two daughters, two fur babies and a wife. My journey into holistic therapies started two years ago when I could no longer continue my career as a teacher due to illness. I found that Reiki and meditation helped my well-being through this tough time so decided to follow that path and train to be a Reiki practitioner. From then, I trained to do Indian Head Massage, Facial Rejuvenation Acupressure Massage and Crystal Therapy. These can be combined treatments or stand alone. I’m also training to become a psychotherapeutic counsellor and an animal healer.
I work at The Hair and Beauty Lounge, 20 Highland Road, Norwich (www.hairandbeautyloungenorwich.co.uk) on a Wednesday, Milestone Therapy Centre, Ingham Road, Stalham (www.milestonetherapycentre.co.uk) other days and I am also based in Acle. Please message me to book appointments Thank you
Reiki
Reiki (pronounced ‘Ray-Key’) translated means ‘universal life energy. It is a Japanese energy balancing method. Reiki is used for stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing. By restoring calm and balance to the mind the body has greater access to its own marvellous healing abilities.
Reiki is an integrative therapy, meaning it works with other therapies and alongside conventional medicine, not in place of them. It treats the whole person, body, emotion, mind and spirit. It is a safe nonintrusive treatment. Reiki energy flows from the practitioners hands. We can be given to the client sitting, lying down or even standing. The client remains fully clothed. The whole treatment lasts about an hour.
The Benefits of Reiki
Anyone can benefit from a course of Reiki treatments, no matter what your age or state of health, and beneficial changes can take place over a fairly short space of time.

Chakra Balancing
Chakra balancing is included in the Reiki treatment. Chakras represent your entire self: physical, spiritual and emotional. The aim is to leave you feeling completely relaxed and refreshed with a great sense of calm and overall well-being. There are seven chakras in the body, they are energy centres. Chakra means wheel of moving energy. If the chakra is out of balance, your energetic body is not balanced which cause physical problems and mental issues. It can also hinder the healing process. When the chakras are balanced you will have an increased sense of well-being and self-awareness. Each chakra works on their own but if one is unbalanced it will stop energy flowing freely through the body.
Balancing Chakras enables you to:
Remain calm within your everyday life.
See challenges for what they are, and not be as affected by them.
Overcome past life experiences which could have left their mark on you.
Help others without their problems affecting you.
Develop confidence, energy, freedom and happiness to feel good about yourself and life every day.
Reiki assists to bring the chakras into alignment and balance them.

Crystals are incorporated into the Reiki treatment, these will enhance the treatment to provide a powerful, peaceful and relaxing experience.
Indian Head Massage

It improves scalp and hair condition. The three higher chakras are worked on to help balance energy levels in the body. The effect is not just physical: it works on an emotional level too, calming the mind, promoting relaxation and relieving stress.

Facial rejuvenation acupressure massage
Facial rejuvenation acupressure massage, also known as non-surgical face lift or natural lift facial massage. This facial massage uses a blend of techniques taken from facial reflexology, Ayurveda massage, acupressure and lymphatic drainage.
Deeper pressure is applied, refocusing muscle memory, to give the face an up-lifted effect. These techniques also stimulate oxygenation of the skin to brighten and tone, improve the circulation to enhance the texture of the skin, help prevent and reduce wrinkles, and to reduce stress and tension that can show in the face.
