collaboratively better healthcare…
Meet our practitioners
Christine Eliza May
Hello there, my journey into health and the way food impacts our bodies began as a teenager in the 1970s when my mum was diagnosed as a coeliac. Not much was known about it then and there was little guidance available so it was a rite of passage and discovery for my family, but especially Mum.
Seeing the impact of this first-hand made me want to take care of my own and my family’s health and so I later qualified as a homeopath, Vega Test Practitioner, Health Eating Advisor and Reiki practitioner as I wanted to be able to help other people with food allergies/intolerances, homeopathic remedies and energy healing.
Jo Jackson
Hi, I’m Jo, a qualified Homeopath, Energy healer, Singing Bowl Therapy practitioner and Vega practitioner. I completed a four year degree at The Centre for Homeopathic Education and also completed Reiki Levels 1 and 2, Anusha Healing to Master Practitioner Level and Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls Practitioner Level 1 and 2. I love blending all these beautiful energies together.
Being a mother to a teenage daughter, I’ve seen the incredible depth of action my different modalities can have and I’ve used these tools to guide my family and patients through the challenges of life and dis-ease as it arises and keep them in the best of health.
Homeopathy has been an amazing support for this and adding Energy and Sound healing to the mix and Vega testing has enhanced my tools even more, to offer a more integrated approach to my work. No person is the same and each of us need different things at different times in our lives. My toolkit offers just that support.
I am a lifelong passionate learner and I am on a continual quest to find more natural and inspiring approaches to my families health and the health of my patients.
Vanessa Hickinbottom
Working in a high pressure stressful environment for nearly thirty years, combined with the demands of home life, meant I needed to focus on my overall health and well being. Following a recommendation I began practising Buteyko Breathing and soon realised that this was more than just a breathing technique. Then, after experiencing years of migraines, I visited a homeopath. These personal experiences gave me the desire, not just to help myself, but to change profession and to continue learning.
I am qualified as a Vega practitioner, Buteyko Breathing practitioner and a homeopath, registered member of the Society of Homeopaths, after completing a four year degree course at the Centre for Homeopathic Education.
