Working in the Community

We are continuing our program to work together within the local community in order to promote awareness of complementary therapies and its benefits to your physical, spiritual, emotional and mental health and well being.

 

We have already worked with Lewisham College, Carers Lewisham and Holy Trinity School. We have also offered therapy treatments through raffle prizes to help raise money for FSID (Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths), the British Red Cross Haiti Disaster Fund and Brent Knoll School. We hope to continue this work throughout the year with more organisations. Read more...

A few testimonials: 

'I have really enjoyed having this treatment through the carers scheme, never having had anything like this before. I was physically and mentally drained having been dealing with a traumatic illness of frontal temporal dementia (picks disease) which my husband had for the last 5 years etc...Having lost him 1 year ago and doing this treatment has totally relaxed me physically, mentally and my emotions are stable again. I would recommend it - and the staff are exceptional in their approach to you - you never feel pressured or uncomfortable. Thanks' EN - was a Carer to her late husband

 

'I have benefitted from having massage treatment. I feel relaxed and am very pleased that I found The MindBody Therapy Centre and have recommended it to a few more people, also I have got my [big] daughter to come along as well. Thank you for your help.' MF - Carer

TransmissionUK CIC

The MindBody Therapy Group are the main service providers for TransmissionUK. This partnership enables us to be able to provide a low cost clinic i.e. free and/or partially funded complementary health care to those in the community suffering with long-term conditions and/or disabilities with no exception of age.

 

It is the intention of The MindBody Therapy Group and all its fully qualified and insured therapists, to use their skills to reach the lives of people with disabilities, life-threatening conditions and long-term conditions, as well as those in less threatening circumstances. This partnership is a great step forward in the fulfilment of this intention and both parties look forward to continuing a long and successful relationship.

 

One of many testimonials:

I am a mother of a seven year old child with Down syndrome and a diagnosis of Autism. I regularly have to lift my child, in & out of the car and out of dangerous situations. I have been suffering from a lot of stress and muscular aches and strains. Devon has advised me on some very useful relaxation techniques and exercises to help me with the stress in my life. Olayinka's treatments have also relieved the tension around my neck and shoulders and I am now sleeping better. My concentration has also improved and I feel clearer and less tense when dealing with situations. I am more aware of using better methods to lift and carry my son and I'm attempting to exercise at least 20 minutes daily. I would definitely recommend this treatment and wish I could continue. Thank you to Transmission and the therapists at MindBody Therapy.

National Childbirth Trust (NCT)

We have run Mother & Baby sessions from November 2009 onwards and as such have built up close links with our local Forest Hill rep. She was very helpful with the initial set up of the sessions and also in the introduction of how much support the NCT charity offers to parents. We hope you find the site useful in your local area. We also offer free therapy tasters in some of the local meetings to mothers and babies, so don't miss out! New treatments at the centre include Baby reflex (this therapist also does reflexology maternity and babies).

The Equilibrium Centre

This centre, in Basingstoke, Hampshire was opened over 6 years ago by Helen Fogg, a local hypnotherapist; it is in a great place within a magical setting. As quoted, it is:

 

'...a holistic centre and has developed over the years into a special place of tranquillity and relaxation. Set in a beautiful. converted granary building on a farm site, the Centre is surrounded by fields. With nature on the doorstep it really feels as though you are away from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It is a timeless place where you can stop and think...'
