Holistic practitioners use a variety of treatment options to help patient to alleviate their current health issues and more importantly take responsibilities of their own well-being and achieve optimal health. Some of the following therapies are the ones that I use in my daily practice:
.
Holistic massage is the gentle, rhythmical stroking and kneading of the body’s soft tissues, soothing away tensions and relaxing and balancing mind and body. With this approach the whole person is treated, rather than just the symptoms of disease, anxiety or excessive stress. During the sessions, the Holistic Practitioner might use aromatherapy, essential oils and relaxation music to create the perfect atmosphere according to the client’s needs. Some of the benefits are: releasing stress and muscle tension, reduce blood pressure, improves circulation and flexibility in the muscles and tissues, improves posture, strengthens the immune system, and brings a sense of peace and calm to the body.
As a Professional Massage Therapist, I have gained extensive experience as a Swedish Massage Therapist with general population and also working as a Sports/Deep Tissue Massage Therapist with AFL clubs and athletes in Melbourne. Some examples of the Massage techniques that I use are: Gliding, Kneading, Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, Deep Transverse Frictions, Compression, Cross-Fibre, Swedish, PNF stretches. Finally, by working in the medical area as a physician with other healthcare practitioner such as physiotherapist and sports physician, I have acquired valuable experience and knowledge of acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions which I utilise in my daily practice.
This is a treatment modality that facilitates the healing of acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. It uses several therapeutic tools including advance massage techniques such as trigger point therapy, acupressure, myofascial release, muscle energy techniques, thermotherapies, dry needling, cupping, sports tapping, corrective stretching and exercising. All of these techniques are used to specific conditions/circumstances and are appropriately assessed by the therapist.
This hands-on-healing treatment modality is the one that I use the most and it has wonderful results regarding any physical, mental and emotional issue. Reiki is an ancient healing technique originated in Japan with roots from Buddhist healing traditions in Tibet. The practitioner uses the universal energy and acts as a channel. During the Reiki treatment, specific energy is provided to the source of the problem and to unblock the vital force within cells, tissues, organs, systems, energy channels and centres (Chakras).
Reiki rebalances energy flows throughout the body, promoting deep relaxation and healing on a physical, mental, emotion and spiritual level. It speeds physical healing, minimises pain and boosts energy levels. As a experience Reiki practitioner, I use this healing modality to mainly heal any physical issue (acute/chronic pain, headaches, neurogenic pain) or even stress, fatigue, tiredness, and muscle weakness.
Seichim/Sekhem is a form of Universal energy that was originally used for healing purposes in Ancient Egypt. Seichim is an ancient word that means “Universal Energy and Power”. Seichem was rediscovered in 1980 by Patrick Zeigler while he was visiting Egypt and after spending the night in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid. This energy heals on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels, with a focus on the heart centre. It is similar to Reiki but operates on a higher vibration and heals on a deeper level. Seichim Healing Energy allow connecting heaven to the earth, so it is also a very grounded energy. Seichim Healing Energy is the way of healing with the heart. As a Sekhem Master/Practitioner, I use this modality in order to help the clients heal chronic emotional or spiritual based issues that haven’t been able to be healed with other treatments, such past karmic event or emotional/psychological traumas that have not healed with other therapy modalities.
Pellowah is a system for channeling and healing energy and expanding consciousness. It works to connect all 12 DNA strands, thus enabling people to tap into more of their true being and higher-self opening their consciousness. Pellowah is an exceptionally high-vibrational healing method, so working with it will almost always have a positive impact on your mood. This type of energy healing is often successful at healing emotional and physical issues that other healing modalities such as Reiki might struggle with. It improves clarity, particularly when it relates to our life purpose and the actions we should be taking on a day-to-day basis.
Pellowah taps directly into Source to dramatically improve your Chi levels and it is also well known for aiding to clean the meridian system (energy channels), heals the aura and consequently helps with any type of emotional healing. Gamal uses this remarkable therapy in clients to help them to improve any mental/emotional issues such as “being in a crossroads” situation or having low energetic/Chi levels, by bringing clarity and balance. It is also helpful to alleviate mood issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, excess worrying or mood swings.
Energetic space clearing facilitates to clear and re-stablish the harmonious energy flow in the home or workplace environment. It also focuses in removing any low vibrational energy that usually are kept in a room after a discussion, argument and any other negative situation. Space clearing is performed with several energetic smudging rituals and the use of scared resins that bring higher energies to the environment. As an energy healer master, I also used energy healing to bring loving and prosperous high vibration energies and removing any low vibrational entities.
Physical illness is the manifestation of any energetic dysfunction and imbalances that affects the auric bodies and the chakras system. In most of these cases, the body is placed under stressful situations that affect all systems in a physical, biochemical, mental/emotional level. The practitioner acts as an energy channel to restore the balance of energy in the body. An appropriate assessment is performed to determine which auric bodies and chakras need to be treated and healed. Non-invasive procedures are used to clear any blocks in the energy channels and rebalance the body. This process brings benefits such as pain relief, relaxation, and healing on a mental, emotional and spiritual level. This is accompanied by a feeling of warmth, cooling, tingling and relaxation
Meditation means awareness. Whatever you do with awareness is meditation. “Watching your breath” is meditation. The goal of meditation is to go beyond the mind and experience our essential nature—which is described as peace, happiness, and bliss. It is also consider a tool, technique and a way of living that allows the mind and body to develop a state of equilibrium, relaxation, and spiritual well-being.
Meditation is used with other alternative healing modalities to minimise stress levels in people’s lives. Meditation has other benefits such as providing pain relief and affects positively physiological conditions such as blood pressure. As an experience Buddhist Meditation Practitioner, Gamal’s will guide you through different types of guided meditations (Shamatha, Vipashyana, visualisations) to achieve a relaxed state, release stress or help clients heal any mental or emotional stressor affecting their lives.
Many ancient cultures such as the Chinese and Egyptians were among the first to use aromatic herbs and extracted oils for medicinal purposes. Aromatherapy is the use of the aroma from essential oils extracted from plants and herbs to lift the spirit and treat many common ailments. The smell of fragrances affects the cells of our nose resulting in a cascade of messages that are sent to the brain, stimulation and releasing hormones and neuro-chemicals that bring psychological and emotional healing changes in the body. Some of these benefits provided by Essential oils are helping with relaxation, stimulating the mind, relieving anxiety/depression, improving focus and promoting better sleep patterns. Furthermore, aromatherapy can also be used to treat burns, headaches, wounds, skin impurities and poor circulation.
Healthy eating and regular physical activity are the foundation of a healthy and balance lifestyle. According to research, those who eat wide variety of nutritious food (fruit, vegetables, wholegrain, nuts, seeds, low fat dairy, lean meat and meat alternatives) not only will have a better quality of life but also will enjoy living a longer life. Similarly, having an active lifestyle and a regular monitored physical activity will provide many benefits such as improving the immune system, boosting the energy levels, regulate sleep patterns and preventing the development of disease such as diabetes, high blood pressure and some type of cancers.
As a professional Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer and qualified overseas Physician, I am able to provide you with an idea of your general nutritional state and suggest the changes that needs to be done in order to achieve healthy fitness goals such keeping a healthy weight, reducing weight, nutrition for illness prevention, and general recommended physical activity for a healthy lifestyle.
Counselling is a type of therapy that supports clients to resolve personal issues. The role of the counsellor is to enable the client to explore many aspects of their life and feelings, by talking openly and freely. The client is given the opportunity to express difficult feelings such as anger, resentment, guilt and fear in a confidential environment. Common personal concerns include relationship difficulties, grief, difficult life circumstances, anxiety and depression. The counsellor helps to resolve problems in a positive way by helping clients to clarify issues, explore options, develop strategies, and increase self-awareness. Effective counselling reduces confusion, allowing the client to make effective their own decisions leading to positive changes in their attitude and/or behaviour.
As a professional oracle card reader and tarot reader, I offer spiritual and intuitive guidance by helping people to identify, understand, and find solutions of any type of block (physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual) that is affecting their lives. Through genuine and experienced spiritual counselling, I help people to re-discover their purpose in life by finding the appropriate tools and seeing things with a different perspective and reconnecting with their inner wisdom and higher-selfs.
