Fourteen months ago we told you a story about Ady who grew up in Fenelon Falls, spent 13 years in England where she trained and qualified at Oxford as a McTimoney Chiropractor, (a very gentle, whole body treatment), attended a year long course in London, England to become a Body Control Pilates Teacher/Trainer and even more training to become an Advanced Bowen Therapist. For the last three years Ady has been practicing in Lindsay and is being kept extremely busy with her wonderful, whole body technique. Ady has patients coming to Lindsay from London , Markham , Barrie and even Kingston ! Many of these patients have been referred to Ady by family and friends and even Insurance companies and lawyers have been recommending her treatments as they have seen some remarkable improvements in their clients.
One of the exciting and new things Ady wants to tell you about is the opening of her "Emergency Treatment Room" - this enables Ady to treat her patients when they have an acute episode so that there is no longer a three to four week wait. Her treatment is such that the sooner you can have the treatment after an injury the better!
To quickly review her gentle healing techniques, (The Galatea Method) quite simply addresses the musculo-skeletal framework, the fascia, nerves and internal organs. The body's response to this treatment improves circulation, lymph drainage and aids in the assimilation of nutrients and elimination of toxins. It allows the body to reset and heal itself. It consists of three to six treatments of one hour duration. Olympic Sports teams in some countries actually have an Advanced Bowen Practitioner on staff to treat their athletes during acute episodes. This treatment works best on acute injuries but it is also great for: back pain and sciatica, knee, ankle and foot problems, digestive and bowel problems including IBS, earache, ear infections and hay fever, headaches and migraines, neck/shoulder problems, including frozen shoulder, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, menstrual and hormonal irregularities, pelvic tilt/rotation/torsion causing leg length discrepancies (no it is not normal to have a leg lengthen difference) and this could be causing all sorts of problems throughout the body.
This is of course just a reminder for you because Ady has told us about all of this before! What she is really excited about now is that she has been working and studying very hard the last two years and in June expects to achieve her designation as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist. This is a tremendous advantage for Ady's patients. She will now be able to address underlying nutritional deficiencies to assist the body in an even more in depth way. If you think about it, proper nutrition is the key to health and many people are quite confused when it comes to eating healthily. It is the biggest factor in disease processes and needs to be addressed one to one as we are all individuals!
The Galatea Method for Natural Health and Wellbeing (located in the plaza behind the Academy Theatre) is growing fast. More and more people have found a happier, healthier, pain free, drug free life by visiting Ady.
