Last year, I wrote a blog about why I created this therapy, my personal story and what led me down the road to create a new treatment and a new training course.

Firstly, I should say that this has by far been the most life-changing experience for me, many of my clients and lots of my students – and of course their clients. It’s a kind of ‘pay it forward’ therapy for generations of women and girls to come.

So this is a bit of a long-winded way to explain how and why I created Temple Therapy. You see the problem is, if you’re like me and you’re investing in a course, you need the full history!

The History

Some of you know that in 2021 I qualified as a Mizan Practitioner. My story. I was told at 25 that I had severe endometriosis, and the only suggested remedy was the pill.

Little did I know that the pill would mask all of my symptoms, cut off my natural hormone cycle and prevent any form of healing. In fact, that long healing process was waiting the minute I came off the pill.

25 years later …. yes, I’ll say that again … 25 years later I discovered Mizan Therapy, and my life changed. Mizan I should say is inspired by Arvigo Technique and you may also have heard of Mayan Abdominal Massage – all linked.

I was going through a phase of painful, heavy and debilitating periods, as well as spotting, when I discovered a Mizan practitioner in Birmingham. Three treatments in, I decided to add Mizan to my capsule collection of therapies. Five treatments in, I’d signed up for the course and my menstrual life had changed beyond recognition.

Since I trained and qualified

Since I trained and qualified, I’ve treated hundreds of clients, all with their own unique concerns. However, I felt a need to enhance the treatment I’d learnt by making it a more complete experience. I added reflexology, extended the back massage, lymphatic drainage, pelvic realignment and included some spa elements.

In 2022, I created my own version and had it accredited by The Complimentary Medical Association and have been teaching it ever since. Of course, I still treat clients.

My mission is to help and educate young girls and women that there is another way. A way that is natural, effective, nurturing, healing and in sync with your body’s rhythms 

Our body is complex, and it has the ability to heal from within. We often either forget this or we’re so busy fulfilling our roles in life that it’s easy to put our health at the bottom of the list 

Pain and Irregularity is your body talking to you

Through Temple Therapy, I’m helping so many women to change their outlook about their womb health.  The therapy is a commitment that you make to yourself that you can and will heal, that you can feel good, that you can be full of energy and vitality, and you can look forward to life 

It’s a hands-on therapy which combines homecare and helps with all of the following 

..painful periods
..missed periods
..perimenopause & menopause symptoms 
..fertility challenges 
..endometriosis 
..PCOS
..digestive issues
..wombspace healing post hysterectomy & post  menopause 

Embrace the Seasons of your Cycle

The education around Temple Therapy allows women to embrace living in a cyclical body and not see it as a hindrance. We are created to move with the ebb and flow of our natural rhythms.

It’s ok to feel different week to week

It’s ok to observe and honour the energy of our cycle

It’s ok to adapt your work, exercise, rest and life to honour the current season

The Treatments

I recommend an initial session which includes a detailed consultation, followed by a minimum of three treatments for you to see the benefits. I help and guide you through the transformational homecare practises, although you’ll see huge benefits from the treatment alone.

The Training

If you’re an existing body therapist, you can apply to take the 2-day course which comes with 5, in-depth case studies. click here

I’m also running an online workshop to equip you with advanced knowledge around womb and hormonal health. Early bird discount before 31st July click here

If you feel I can help you in any way, maybe just a chat or some lifestyle tips, I offer a complimentary phone consultation where you can pick my brain as much as you like. It always turns out to be a great conversation! click here to get in touch

Remember, every woman deserves a natural, pain free and predictable monthly cycle. It’s her right.

Your First Session

Before we even get to the treatment, many of you want to know how it works, what’s involved, what happens during the treatment and what maintenance is required. In this blog, I’m going to cover what happens when you come for your first session.

Prior to the session, I always send you some prep notes. This is so you know what to wear for your appointment, when to eat on the day and also to reassure you that you’ll be in good hands.

The first session is always at least 2 hours. I never rush you and we take our time to discuss your history. This starts with your main concerns and your health goals. We go back and look at what might have influenced where you are now. Sometimes it’s medical. Sometimes it’s emotional. Sometimes it’s physical. Most of the time, it’s a combination of all those things and I make sure I give you the time and space to talk about whatever comes up for you.

Get Ready For The Session

Once we’ve had our initial chat (and of course a cuppa), I give you some privacy to get ready for the session. I always ask you to bring some comfy clothing such as leggings and a t-shirt to your appointment. You will undress down to your underwear and your modesty is protected at all times. You’ll be covered with soft cotton sheets and blankets. I always switch on the electric blanket too so you’re extra cosy!

Once the treatment starts, it’s just over an hour and because I explain in advance what will happen, it’s a time for you to relax, focus on your breathing, meditate or visualise – whatever you feel comfortable with.

One aspect we do talk about in advance is what you are letting go of through this process. We all have baggage whether it’s physical or emotional. The Body Temple Method is a gift that allows you to process emotions, trauma (big or small), and work with your body’s natural healing ability. After all, all our body is ever trying to do is heal. Once you’ve verbalised all of this, it’s amazing how much healing you can experience just in the first session.

Reflexology

The treatment starts on your feet. 15-20 minutes of reflexology focussing on the pelvic area and reproductive organs. During this time, heated lavender bags are gently warming your upper and lower abdomen.

By the time we get to the deep abdominal massage, most clients are gently snoozing. Some gentle lymphatic drainage on the front of the legs, pelvic alignment through gentle body rocking and deep breathing are all part of the first half of the treatment. Your skin is covered for most of this, apart from the tummy massage.

You will then turn over to lie face down. I always make sure you’re super comfy before working on the back. Your comfort is key for me. If you’re in the optimum position, I find I can leave you to relax for at least 10 minutes after the treatment because you’re in a deep state of relaxation by then.

Back

The back work includes the sacral and the lower to mid back. These nerves all feed into the front of the body and help with encouraging the flow of fresh blood, vitality and healing to the reproductive organs. Gentle body rocking, deep percussion and pressure points allow tension release and aim to balance the body systems.

Of course, I include the neck and shoulders as they are a tension burden for most of us and it would be wrong to skip this area.

Once the physical treatment is complete and you’ve had your additional 10 minutes of ‘snooze’ time, there’s normally another herbal tea waiting for you and we have a brief chat about aftercare.

I’ve always found that the end of a deeply relaxing and intensive treatment is not the best time to talk about homecare in detail. Most clients are in a different zone by this time, so we have a brief chat and then a follow-up chat after a few days.
