Qigong for Health

Qigong therapy works with your qi or inner life force.

It is a powerful system of healing and energy, restoring natural harmony using breathing techniques, gentle movements, and mindfulness to cleanse, strengthen, and circulate life energy.

Blocked, stagnant or deficient energy causes pain, weakness, discomfort and ill health. 

When energy flows freely and is balanced, the body is healthy, strong and comfortable.

What our customers say

“Nicky was a pleasure to work with. The information and advice I gained was invaluable in understanding how to maintain a diet that sustains body and mind. She doesn’t just look at what you eat but at the imbalances in your life, factors impacting well-being and gives advice that you can take to create a more harmonious lifestyle.

Nicky’s supportive and nurturing approach was great at showing me what works best and making new habits, in order to create long-lasting changes.”

What our customers say

Re panic attacks…With the medication you have given me  it has calmed me down I don’t panic as much. For last month and half we (husband) just had one argument. So it’s working. A big thank you for your help.

What our customers say

“I approached Nicky to help me with a long term digestive problem, energy dips during the day and stress management. After a very thorough interview she devised a 12 week programme for me to follow to tackle these issues, which I did. This was helped by regular follow up calls which kept me motivated and also helped solve any problems I was having with following the various regimes. I liked her holistic view of my situation, making changes across a range of my activities, which felt more sustainable than simply trying to reduce symptoms.

I noticed a marked improvement across the areas that I was concerned about whilst working together and have remained motivated to continue the changes that Nicky helped me put in place. “

What our customers say

I’ve been struggling with my gut health for over 10 years and had seen many doctors who just laughed me out the door, claiming it was ‘just IBS’.

I went to see Nicky who really listened and cared about my health concerns.  I learnt more in that first session about my gut and nutrition than anything I’d read online!

She put me on the 12 week gut repair program and supported me every step of the way. It was clear and easy to follow, she even sent loads of delicious meal ideas and recipes I could use. Her encouraging bi weekly phone calls and emails were exactly what I’ve been needing and her knowledge and expertise were second to none.

It only took a couple of weeks before I really started feeling the difference, and I felt amazing at the end of the 12 weeks! Having been on the program, I’m now so much more equipped and knowledgeable, making better decisions in my day to day life, not only with my nutrition, but also with mindfulness, exercise and work.

I can’t thank Nicky enough for what she has done for me and I would recommend anyone struggling with any aspect of their life to see her, you will not regret it!
