Blissful Healing

My name is Melanie, most people call me Mel. I’ve had a varied career, spending almost 25 years of my working life in a various businesses from food manufacture, construction, marketing/incentives/logistics and the third sector. Now I’m my own boss business – Blissful Healing, in charge of my own destiny wherever that might be. I’m not new to complementary therapies, far from it. My interest began in 1996 when Steve, my husband who is a type 1 diabetic, was out playing football at the local park with our youngest son. On their way home, Steve had a very bad hypo which resulted in hospital treatment, which was bad enough but it could have easily have been far worse. This shook us both and we began to investigate what we could do to help improve Steve’s diabetes and our general health and wellbeing. It wasn’t long before Steve went off to study nutrition and I became a regular visitor to our local health food shop learning everything I could from the lovely lady who ran it. We both began reading about lots of different healing modalities and practicing on each other. Then in 2001, I began my journey with Reiki Healing, qualifying as a Reiki Practitioner. I’ve added lots more since then and I’m continuously updating my skills: 2001 – Reiki 1st and 2nd Degree 2002 – Foundation Course in Therapeutic Hypnosis 2003 – Diploma Course in Therapeutic Hypnosis 2006 – Indian Head Massage (VTCV Level 3) 2007 – Practitioner Diploma in Advanced Precision Reflexology (ABC) 2017 – Easter Facial Massage Practitioner Diploma 2017 – Inner Dance Facilitator Training 2017 – Teachers Diploma in Meditation 2018 – Cancer and Palliative Reflexology CPD 2018 – Tong Ren Healing 2018 – Hands Free Massage (ABT) 2018 – Hopi Ear Candles 2019 – Diploma in Massage (VTCT Level 3) 2020 – Oncology Massage Practitioners Diploma (Level 3) 2020 – Pregnancy Massage (ABT) 2020 – Hot Stone Massage (FHT) 2020 – Aromatherapy for Complementary Therapies (VTCT) 2020 – Essential Oils in Cancer Care (CPD) 2021 – Practitioners Diploma in Myofascial Release 2021 – Cancer Care and Aromatherapy (Penny Price) 2021 – Extended Learning in Essential Oils CPD 2022 – Lymphatic Drainage Massage Certificate (Penny Price) 2022 – 6-Week Hypnotherapy Masterclass (CPD) 2022 – Hormones, Menopause and Essential Oils (Penny Price) Safeguarding training for vulnerable adults (CPD) DBS at Enhanced Level Nowadays, I share my time using bodywork such as aromatherapy massage, reflexology, reiki etc and using my skills in hypnotherapy and meditation. No treatment session is the same, because we are all different and at different points of our life. My clients come from all walks of life, which is fantastic, but I retain a love of helping women who may be going to pivotal changes in life such as Pregnancy, menopause or those diagnosed with cancer (at any point from diagnosis to end of life) but also love helping people who are struggling or being blocked from leading a fulfilling life because of obstacles their subconscious has created. I look forward to meeting you soon.
