SERVICES

Welcome to Casey Howse at The Healing Space Need nurturing? I offer a delightful haven on the Brook stream where I practice a variety of natural healing therapies. With more than 20 years experience both here and in the U.K, I bring a wealth of knowledge and compassion to my clients, who often arrive at Brook Street feeling tired, sore and stressed. I am able to call upon an appropriate treatment to help restore harmony to the body so you will leave feeling rejuvenated and peaceful. My special blend of serenity, good humour and warm intuitive understanding will immediately put you at ease. Whether it’s knotted muscles or mental tension, I can help. If your shoulders are tight I can use strong massage, or I can apply a combination of any of the modalities. For example, Reiki and Holistic Pulsing is a very gentle yet powerful combination - or Massage followed by Reiki can also be beneficial.
Reiki What is Reiki? Reiki is a Japanese word meaning universal life force. When Reiki is applied pure life force comes through the palms of the practitioner’s hands and goes directly to the parts of the body which need it most. Being pure unpolarised energy, Reiki creates harmony and balance within the body, which allows self-healing to take place. Reiki has an incredible calming effect, yet at the same time increases one’s energy and stamina. Reiki session Undressing is not required for Reiki. A treatment involves placing my hands gently on about twelve different positions of your body for approximately five minutes each. Typically, you’ll feel heat from my hands. Occasionally you might feel tingling or even cold in some areas. Some people fall asleep; others experience colourful visions. The Reiki will be working even if you feel nothing at all. I guarantee that by the end of the session, you will feel mellow. Benefits Because it enables self healing many conditions may be improved with Reiki:
  • Relaxes the body
  • Calms the mind
  • Heals trauma
  • Reduces pain
  • Speeds injury recovery
  • Increases energy (vitality level)
  • Reduces stress
  • Improves sleep patterns
  • Enables one to handle pressure

Holistic Pulsing - The power of softness What is Holistic Pulsing? Holistic Pulsing is a wonderful treatment to help you move more freely and feel more alive. It’s extremely gentle and nurturing, involving a rhythmic rocking movement, and is probably the most deeply relaxing form of bodywork. The practitioner applies special types of rocking to the fully clothed body, including gentle stretching. The gentle rocking follows the body’s natural rhythm and is close to the foetal heartbeat (this provides a safe womblike environment in which the nervous system can relax into the soothing movement). The effect is deeply relaxing yet energising, helping to release physical tension and emotional stress. Benefits
  • Deeply relaxing yet energising
  • Releases muscular tension and joint stiffness
  • Improves blood and lymph circulation
  • Helps elimination of toxins
  • Excellent for lifting shock and trauma
  • Extremely grounding
  • Releases emotional stress, decreases anxiety
  • Powerful self-discovery tool
  • Improves self awareness
  • Increases sensitivity to the body
  • Meets the need for nurturing and support
  • Promotes relaxed sleep and may ease insomnia
Holistic Pulsing Session A session of holistic pulsing usually takes about 90 minutes. The first 20 minutes is a free consultation during which I will ask a few questions to help you to become more aware of your body, giving me a little background as to your physical and emotional health. During the 60 minutes of treatment you will remain fully clothed on a massage table. I will apply rhythmic rocking movements including some gentle stretching. A deep state of relaxation is usually reached quite quickly. You will have your own response to the treatment. You may fall asleep, you may have an emotional release: it’s all part of the process. You will have 10-15 minutes of quiet time at the end of the session.
Bach Flower remedies Many people are familiar with Rescue Remedy but are unaware of the 38 Bach Flower Remedies from which this Rescue Remedy are drawn. Bach Flower essences aid in changing negative emotions and eliminating defective traits or attitudes in such a way as to lead to the patient's peace of mind and contentment. Use of the essences aids in coping with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, fear, guilt, worry, and many other disturbing feelings. The essences can help us to improve our emotional and mental state, thus balancing the body and the mind. Bach Flower remedies are completely safe for use by anyone, including children. They are natural, non-toxic, and non-habit-forming. Moreover, treatment with Bach Flowers can be combined with other homoeopathic or conventional treatments. While it is unusual for Bach Flowers to be used for physical symptoms, it is possible that through their use, the body will heal itself of symptoms as the patient reaches a balanced mental state. The remedies are taken as drops on the tongue several times a day, or can be added to water & sipped frequently. History Bach Flower Remedies were invented and developed by Dr. Edward Bach about 80 years ago. A prominent physician, Dr. Bach decided to leave his practice and focus on homoeopathy. He left London and began researching plant essences and their effect on humans. Dr. Bach isolated and classified 38 flowers from which he extracted 38 essences with which he succeeded in healing patients' ailments while taking into account their individual emotional states. Dr. Bach found that certain flower essences led to self-healing, as they purified the patient of negative elements that adversely affected their health.

Testimonials “I had been suffering from pain and stiffness in my knees and hips for two years and my ease of walking was impaired. I had received other forms of treatment, which worked for a while but had no lasting effect. After only one session of Holistic Pulsing with Casey my walk was almost restored to its former condition, the pulsing relaxed the stiffness and the process was very nurturing. I have also received massage and Reiki from Casey at other times and I wholeheartedly recommend her. She is an intuitive healer with a very sure and gentle touch.” Rose Diamond, Nelson “I had osteoarthritis in my left shoulder, (bone on bone), and had been suffering for six months. I couldn’t move my shoulder at all. I was unable to do my usual mechanical work. I couldn’t hunt, fish or play my bass guitar. I could barely move my arm. My GP sent me to a surgeon who said I would need the ball and socket replaced. I had one session with Casey that was a combination of pulsing, massage and reiki. At the end of the session I already had some movement back and two days later, full movement. AMAZING RESULT!” My GP couldn’t believe it. Anyone lucky enough to be able to see Casey should jump at the opportunity.” Warren Snell, Nelson “My muscles were very sore & achey after walking the Abel Tasman National Park. Someone at the back-packers where I was staying recommended Casey to me. I am soo glad they did! I’ve had massages all over the world, but Casey gave me the best massage I’ve ever had – anywhere!” Lauren, Los Angeles “I had been enjoying my regular massages with Casey when one day I decided to try 'this reiki thing'. I am hooked! I have never felt so relaxed in my life! I am one of those busy head people who find it near impossible to stop still. I now have regular reiki sessions, which have greatly improved my sleep patterns.” Karen, Nelson Gift Vouchers are available for 30, 60 or 90 minute sessions and are interchangeable with Massage, Reiki or Holistic Pulsing.
