It is essentially a Holistic Treatment acting not just on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems but on a much deeper, emotional level helping to realign the homeostatic forces which enable us to function as healthy human beings. Rosi applies gentle touch healing to the electromagnetic meridians, whilst also channeling energy, and all of this using aromatic oils to the entire body, including face, hands and feet. Her sessions, lasting from 1 ½ hours to 1 ¾ hours, are thorough and extremely effective. You will enjoy her treatment and feel a sense of rejuvenation and inner joy. You can book massages or a series of massages with her, before you arrive. FEES ; As a special introduction, Rosi offers the first treatment for €40.

Meinhard Federlein is a qualified homeopath. His treatments are safe and effective, without the side-effects of drugs or resulting from surgical intervention. Unlike conventional medicine, Homeopathy looks at the whole picture of individual signs and symptoms, in order to identify the root cause of the disturbance of what Hahnemann, its German founder, describes as the Vital Force. Working on the fundamental law of healing which is that like cures like, for instance the old wives' cure for colds: onions, producing red eyes, weeping and runny nose, the therapist matches the symptoms of his patient with the symptoms that a homeopathic substance can produce in a healthy person. Meinhard treats acute and chronic / constitutional diseases, ranging from flu, gastritis and bronchitis to asthma, arthritis and eczema, as well as deeper rooted states, such as lethargy, sleeplessness and depression. He also gives advice on holiday problems, such as car sickness, insect bites and sun stroke. FEES The consultation for acute problems takes about half an hour and costs € 20. The consultation for chronic complaints, and emotional problems, such as depression, lack of motivation, ennui, consists of two 1-hour sessions at an interval of a few days, followed by two 5 - 10 minutes feedback sessions over the phone, and costs € 85. You could think of the latter as general overhauling of your system - body, emotions and mind. Meinhard will be available from 20th February 2009 until 15th July 2009, and then again from 17th August 2009 onwards. Telephone: 34 958 069 037 Mobile 34 665 058 466 |
