I’d been seeing Valerie for Massages and Counselling on and off for years but during a recent bout of feeling overwhelmed about everything (and being unable to think my way out of it like I normally would) she suggested we try hypnotherapy.  I’d had hypnotherapy once before and found it very helpful so thought it was worth giving another go.

Following the session there was a steady improvement in my mindset over the next few weeks; the fog lifted and my thinking became clearer and I was able to formulate a plan that is getting me closer to where I want to be in my life and career.  Thanks for letting me unstuck Valerie ! xx

“I have visited Inspiring Wellness for many years and received a variety of treatments for both mind and body.  Valerie is always warm, inviting, highly skilled and intuitive.  Whether it be a sports massage, energetic healing or counselling she is able to tune into your needs and you know you are in safe and compassionate hands.

“Having experienced childhood trauma, I’ve had a phobia about snakes for over 40 years. Valerie was able to prepare me and on my terms I knew when was the right time to book a hypnotherapy session as I did not want to spend the rest of my life holding onto such fear and anxiety.

“It was an amazingly calm, positive and enlightening experience and I walked away from that session with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.  I’ve since looked at photos, visited Australia Zoo, stood close to a ranger with a snake an arms distance away from me feeling a sense of wonderment and new beginnings.

“I’ve since dreamt of snakes and in the past I would’ve woken up in a sweat with heart palpitations. Instead I woke up and said “I dreamt of snakes last night”.

“Putting my trust in Valerie came very easy because she really is a special therapist but more importantly a very special gifted woman.  (Name withheld as requested). “

“I would love to publicly thank Valerie for the amazing help she has given me through therapeutic massage. Although I consistently exercised to straighten my posture and alleviate neck and shoulder pain and stiffness, the slightest unguarded movement would aggravate the problem.  Through Valerie’s skilled massages, that is no longer an issue.  My posture has improved, my neck and shoulders do not ache and I can turn my head much more freely.  Valerie’s willingness to use her laser device on a large depression on my calf caused by panniculitis, has seen the dry skin and hole almost disappear.  This is something that prescription cortisone creams could not do.  Valerie has greatly improved my quality of life by helping to increase my mobility and alleviate my pain.

“Cranio-sacral therapy has been a very gentle and healing process for me. In a life involving so much doing…I can go and have a treatment that assists me in connecting deeply with just being. Experiencing myself in this way has guided me in increasingly in making resonant choices from a place within my soul. I have loved working with Valerie this past year…the combination of her bodywork and counselling skills have facilitated both healing and growth as I navigate this adventure called life.”

“I’m delighted to recommend Valerie from Inspiring Wellness to anyone who knows that therapeutic massage is a component to their holistic health and wellbeing. I walked into Valerie’s care thinking that all I needed was a back massage and I walked out with renewed energy and purpose. This is not giving yourself the gift of self-care, it is not a gift when it should be akin to brushing your teeth, i.e. something needed regularly for core health and wellbeing. The elevated level of energy I had after each session meant I could do more, with more enthusiasm, and so, achieve more. If you think you just need a back massage every other month, think again and make Valerie one of your key – essential – health practitioners you see regularly. “

“Dear Valerie, The word Joy is what you have taught me to see in everything I do.  Thank you for challenging me and inspiring me and for your many wisdoms.  This Journey has changed my life and my heart.  God Bless you Valerie.”

“There are not enough thank yous to tell you how grateful I am for your continued support and help on my journey.”

“Thank you for your words, your guidance, your sense of things, your insights, your listening and your encouragement to see a challenge as an opportunity !!  The ‘sessions” I have had with you have literally been life changing and sight changing.  You are truly gifted!! You are appreciated.  Thank you for your truth and laughter.”

“Valerie, Thank you so much for your wonderful support and guidance over the last year.  You have allowed me to go on a journey that I would have been not keen to undertake. This has given me the freedom to understand better who I really am.  I look forward to once again having a conversation with you in the future.  Thank you once again, for you are a Very Special Person with a Very Special Gift.”

“Thank you for all of your help in the last year. You have been invaluable to me both personally and professionally and a lot of amazing things in both of those areas of my life have been through your professional expertise, care and insights. I cannot thank you enough. Blessings to you Valerie.”

“Dear Valerie, I really wanted to thank you for all the time you have taken in helping me and making such a difference in my life. I know that helping people feel better is what you do for a living but I really believe that you have a special gift. You have been so kind to me and have allowed me to feel and be myself, something in which I haven’t done in a long time. You reminded me of who I used to be and what I want to be… You are a special healer, you take the time to make the difference in peoples lives. The world needs more people like you in it. Thank you for always listening, for being who you are. I really appreciate everything. I wish the best for you and hope that God gives back to you so much more than everything you have given.”

“Dear Valerie, Just wanted to say thank you so much for everything over the past year. I couldn’t have got through it without you. You’re such a special person and I am lucky to have found you.”

“I appreciate what you have done for me. Thank you Valerie for your patience, kindness, understanding and for everything.”

“Valerie, Thank you for coming into my journey over the past year and helping me through some really tough times. There are not many people with a heart as soft and caring as yours.”

“I have had many massages before, and you give the best I have ever had. I can feel energy moving in my body when you work on me. You are a true healer. I wish I had known you 2 years ago when I first had my accident.”

(Work place accident, massage, counselling and energy work)

“Thank you Valerie for all your support over the last 12 months.  I could not have got through this without you and my fortnightly treatments.”

“I was thinking the other day that when I have my massage it is the only time that I am truly myself.”

“You’re amazing! You have helped me understand the connection of the pain and tension in my body and the events from my past. You have never met me before but you provided such a safe space when I felt so vulnerable. Thankyou so much.”
