Shamanic Reiki is an evolving, ecstatic art guiding us to come back to our true self, achieving a deeper understanding of the energetic world we inhabit and our power within it. Paolo Bisazza offers a unique blend of Shamanism and Reiki, expanding ways of working with Universal Life Force Energy. He merges his innate skills of psychic channelling, shamanic sight, clairaudience and clairvoyance to intuitively scan and assess the energetic body. By connecting with the Spirit realm, the clients are truly involved in their own healing in which they can interactively receive effective benefits on the energetic, emotional, and physical level. In this particular aspect of Shamanic Reiki, ancient Spirit, animal guides, the client’s higher self and other spiritual forces are often called upon to fully support the journey of the client. This direct communication with the guides assists greatly in the path of healing. Stunning visualizations or getting in contact with personal guides, and feeling a sense of  remarkable restoration, balance and inner clarity are a few experiences that may colour this deeply profound therapy. Explore your own inner space, become aware of your natural power and discover your spirit voice with Paolo, in a collective journey of true transformation at Alchemy!

Richard

Wednesdays 14:00 – 20:00
Richard’s focus is on empowering each individual physically, emotionally and mentally to live their potential!

He works particularly with the understanding that each of us has unique physical, mental and emotional needs to maintain our health and wellbeing. His treatments reflect this – individually tailored within the treatment room but also promoting each patient to find what they need outside of the treatment room to stay nourished and vibrant.
This holistic perspective is of particular importance as he understands the negative effects on our health and wellbeing when we engage with activities and occupations which don’t nourish us, recently writing an e-book on the body-mind connection.
Richard also teaches yoga, and enjoys integrating the principles of other therapies into his understanding. He draws on a wealth of experience of other natural healing modalities, including 5 Rhythms Dance and other movement practices, Tai Chi, Meditation, Native American Style Dance and Ceremony, and various other forms of energy and bodywork. Richard also previously managed an Organic Food Shop.
