Holistic Therapies for People

 

Many of the people who find their way to this page do so through their animals.  They've experienced the care and attention that Rowan's House brings to the creatures they love most - and found themselves wondering what that same approach might offer them.

It's a natural bridge, and one that I welcome warmly.   Whether you arrive here through your pets or entirely independently, you'll find the same philosophy at work: whole-person care that is unhurried, non-judgmental, and genuinely tailored to you - not a template applied to everyone.

You don't need to believe in anything in particular to benefit from these therapies. You simply need to be open - and willing to see what happens.

See the information below for all of the services available, and click the BOOK ME button at the bottom of the page to book a session, or the CONTACT ME button for any further information.

ENERGY HEALING — REIKI AND RAHANNI ANGELIC HEALING

Energy Healing

Energy healing works on the principle that the body holds more than its physical structure - that our emotional experiences, our stress, our grief, and our unresolved tensions live somewhere in us, and that gentle, non-invasive support can help the system find its way back to balance.

I offer two distinct energy healing modalities, each with its own character and approach.  Some clients come with a clear preference; others aren't sure where to start.  If you'd like guidance on which might suit you best, simply get in touch and Helen will be happy to talk it through.

Reiki

Online (distance) or in-person  |  Available year-round online, Sept-May in-person

Reiki is a gentle energy practice rooted in Japanese tradition - the word itself translates roughly as 'universal life energy'.   In a session, the practitioner holds a calm, open, meditative state and channels that energy to the recipient, supporting the body's natural capacity to return to balance and rest.

I am a qualified Reiki Master Teacher - meaning I hold the highest level of Reiki training, and is qualified not only to practise but also to teach.   Sessions can be offered in person or at a distance, as Reiki is not limited by physical proximity.  

Many clients find distance sessions just as effective as in-person work.  Reiki does not diagnose or treat specific conditions, and is complementary to any medical treatment you are receiving.   What it offers is a quality of deep rest and settling that many people find difficult to access any other way - and from that place of rest, the body often finds its own way toward ease.

Particularly helpful for:

          •  Stress, anxiety, and overwhelm

          •  Emotional processing and recovery

          •  Supporting conventional medical treatment

          •  Chronic fatigue and low energy

          •  Grief and loss

          •  Anyone who simply hasn't been able to slow down

Reiki — distance session  £45  (60 minutes)

Reiki — in-person session  £55 (60 minutes, Sept–May locally)

Rahanni Angelic Healing

Online (distance) or in-person  |  Available year-round online, Sept-May in-person

Rahanni is a heart-centred healing practice that works gently to release fear, negativity, and the weight of emotional pain that accumulates over time. It is a relatively new modality, but its effects - particularly for people who are highly sensitive, emotionally exhausted, or carrying long-standing grief - can be profound.

Where Reiki works across the whole energy system, Rahanni works specifically on the heart centre.  Clients often describe a sense of lightening - of something being gently released that they had been carrying without fully realising it.  It is particularly well suited to people who have been through significant emotional difficulty and are looking for a gentle way forward.

I am a qualified Rahanni Angelic Healing Practitioner Teacher, trained to both practise and teach.  Sessions are offered by distance or in person.

Particularly helpful for

        •  Grief, loss, and bereavement

        •  Anxiety rooted in fear or past experience

        •  Emotional exhaustion and burnout

        •  Highly sensitive people who find other energy work too intense

        •  Periods of significant life transition or upheaval

Rahanni — distance session  £45  (60 minutes)

Rahanni — in-person session  £55  (60 minutes, Sept–May locally)

HERBAL CONSULTATIONS - ADULTS AND CHILDREN

Online or in-person  - Available year-round online or in-person September to May

Herbal medicine works with the body rather than against it - supporting the systems that are struggling, rather than simply suppressing symptoms.  It is one of the oldest forms of healing in the world, and one that Helen has studied to an advanced level.

A herbal consultation with me is a proper, personalised conversation about your health, your history, and what is going on for you right now.  It is not a one-size-fits-all supplement recommendation.  It results in a tailored herbal protocol - specific plants, specific preparations, specific guidance - designed for you as an individual.  

After the consultation, you will receive a written herbal protocol, with either a small supply of the herbs recommended if appropriate, or suggestions of where to purchase supplies from.  Further supplies of herbs can be purchased separately.

I always recommend working alongside your GP or specialist, particularly if you are on medication or managing a long-term condition.  Herbal support is most powerful when it is part of a joined-up approach to your health - never a replacement for conventional care where that care is needed.

Herbal Consultations for Adults 

I hold an Advanced Master Herbalist qualifications and brings a deep, nuanced understanding of plant medicine to adult consultations.   Whether you are managing a chronic condition, looking for natural support during a period of stress or illness, or simply wanting to understand your body better through a herbal lens - a consultation provides a thorough, thoughtful starting point.

Commonly supported conditions and concerns are:

        •  Stress, anxiety, and nervous system exhaustion

        •  Digestive health and gut sensitivity

        •  Hormonal balance and menstrual health

        •  Sleep difficulties and fatigue

        •  Immune support and seasonal resilience

        •  Skin conditions with an internal component

        •  Long-term or complex health conditions (alongside medical care)

Initial consultation  £80 (60 minutes, includes written herbal protocol)

Follow-up consultation  £45  (30–45 minutes)

Herbal Consultations for Older Adults (over 65 years)

Herbal support for older adults requires a particular kind of care and knowledge.   The body changes with age - how it metabolises plants, what it needs, and how herbs interact with commonly prescribed medications all require careful consideration.   Helen's specialist diploma in herbalism for the elderly means she approaches these consultations with the nuance they deserve. 

Sessions for older adults are unhurried, and I have experience in working with people who may be managing multiple conditions, are taking several medications, or simply finding that the approaches that worked for them in earlier life no longer serve them as well.   Gentle, appropriate support is always the aim.

Commonly supported concerns in older adults

        •  Joint pain, stiffness, and inflammation

        •  Sleep difficulties and night waking

        •  Digestive changes and appetite

        •  Cognitive support and mental clarity

        •  Energy, fatigue, and general vitality

        •  Emotional wellbeing in later life

Initial consultation (older adults)  £80 (60 minutes, includes written herbal protocol)

Follow-up consultation  £45  (30–45 minutes)

Herbal Consultations for Children

Children respond beautifully to herbal medicine - often more readily than adults.  Helen holds a specialist diploma in herbalism for children and understands both the therapeutic possibilities and the essential safety considerations that make herbal work with younger clients different from adult practice.

Consultations for children are always held with a parent or guardian present, and all recommendations are made with full awareness of a child's age, size, and any existing health conditions or medications.   The aim is always the gentlest effective support.

Commonly supported concerns in children

        •  Anxiety, worry, and emotional sensitivity

        •  Sleep difficulties and restlessness

        •  Digestive upsets and food sensitivities

        •  Immune support and recurrent illness

        •  Supporting neurodivergent children gently and naturally

Initial consultation (children)  £65 (60 minutes, parent/guardian present, includes written protocol)

Follow-up consultation  £45 (30-45 minutes)

HOW SESSIONS WORK

Online sessions are available year-round for energy healing (Reiki, Rahanni, Angelic Energy Healing) and all herbal consultations.  These take place via video call and are just as effective as in-person sessions for most clients.

In-person sessions are available locally from September through to May.  I come to you, so you can be at ease in your own home.

If you are unsure which therapy might suit you, or whether your situation is something I can help with, please just get in touch.   A brief conversation is always welcome - and there is never any pressure to book.
