Wendy Dunning - Qualified Lecturer, Reiki & Seichem Master Healer, NLP Master Practioner (Neuro Linguistic Programming)
I began my own emotional healing training when studying Counselling at Vaughan College in Leicester. Like many people going to study this subject, I was drawn there by a wish to understand more about others, and a need to understand myself and my reactions to my own past experiences.
As I learnt about emotional healing I gained more understanding of other people’s reactions to stress, loss and trauma in their lives.
By allowing my clients to explore their past I began to help them to release fear, anger and resentment. Giving them more control over their own lives and helping them to begin to look forward, towards a brighter future.
I have been teaching and practicing Reiki & Seichem for over 12 years and enjoy the quiet peaceful loving energy it brings me into contact with. It is more than what I do – it part of who I am.
I have now trained as an NLP Master Practitioner - this has a lovely philosophy of acceptance of others and self behind it and allows me to use tools for emotional healing that are really powerful.

Cathy Vivian
Cathy has been working as a qualified Bowen therapist since 2001. She belongs to a professional register (BTER), and will be registering with the Complementary Health Care Council (CNHC) when it is up and running in February 2010. After a successful career as an administrative manager in social housing, Cathy trained as a chiropractor gaining a degree from Oxford Brookes in 1996. When her own health problems with chronic fatigue were helped significantly by Bowen, she changed the focus of her work to concentrate solely on this therapy.
“I am committed to following Bowen in depth as my experience of it has shown it to be very powerful as a healing tool. Many times I have been amazed at some of the results seen with my own patients and those of fellow therapists. A gentle approach to health can achieve such a lot for everyone, from those with severe health problems to the sports person who wants to be the best they can.”
Cathy is interested in how structural balance can affect (and is affected by) mental, physical and emotional wellbeing. She qualified in Neurostructural Integration Technique in 2004 (a Bowen-derived therapy), and is studying the Emmett Technique (muscle release) in 2010.
