Carole Dawson
Jikiden Reiki Shihan Teacher
Reflexologist
Carole Dawson has 34 years' experience in Natural Health, practising Reflexology and Reiki and teaching the original, authentic Japanese style of Reiki called Jikiden Reiki - meaning 'directly passed down'.
She also delights in empowering others to take charge of their own health and well-being, with her regular Reiki courses at the clinic, showing how Reiki can be used within the family for day to day ailments as well as more serious ailments.
Carole became interested in Reiki in 1995 when a colleague gave her a short treatment with very powerful results. Reiki is a hands-on energy treatment for the improvement of body and mind, which is carried out over clothing while lying on a massage bed, and is suitable for anyone of any age or state of health. The therapist places hands lightly on areas of the body to make energy available for healing.
As a Reflexologist she trained with the Bayly School - the first Reflexology training school to be set up in Great Britain. Reflexology is based on the principle that each part of the foot corresponds to a part of the body. Treatment is carried out using finger or thumb pressure systematically over the whole of both feet, balancing all systems of the body.
