EASE HOLISTIC THERAPIES

About Ease Holistic Therapies

 

I'm Barry Dixon, I retrained (after my Masters degree in Anthropology) as a Holistic therapist in 2000.  I chose to do this as all through my life I have understood that healthy minds and bodies are fundamental to well being.  I found I increasingly gravitated towards elderly care after treating the ageing members of my own family.  Having seen the positive results I became committed to going into residential care settings.  Over the years I have seen fantastic results in helping reach a sense of calm from clients whose conditions range dramatically, from being previously agitated or sometimes non-responsive; the improvements have been dramatic. Clients often spontaneously enter into their own reminisence therapy whilst I am conducting a reflexology.  I have chosen and remained committed to this field of Holistic care due to an ethical consideration - I genuinely believe that it offers amazing results for people in residential care settings.

​

Probably due to this passion and ethical consideration I found that my work was spreading to a variety of care settings, not only elderly but also adults with severe learning impairments, but I continue to be drawn to furthering geriatric holistic care, valuing these clients who have given so much through their lives.  There are, of course, many challenges working in this field of holistic therapy and many of my clients are far within their own journeys;  but I have had the honour of sharing those journeys with them, providing ease along the way, often over many years.

I am probably the most experienced practitioner working in Geriatric holistic care.  I have created guidelines for this field and my treatments are specifically designed and developed for this area of holistic therapy.  I am fully committed to increasing the sense of wellbeing in residential care settings and this is why I know Ease Holistic Therapy can benefit your residents.
