Do you want to feel in safe hands? Are you expert enough to help me?

I know a great deal about our bodies and how they work- a degree in Physiology and Biochemistry (Reading) plus my time as an NHS laboratory biochemist support my Complementary Healthcare qualifications. Feel confident that help is at hand with whatever you present (or you will be refered, if appropriate, to one of my coleagues at the centre,to your GP or a therapist at another centre, for example an osteopath). You can, with support and advice, decide the best way forward for you. The choice of options discussed and then carried out will make you feel confident that you can make very real improvements to your symptoms.

You receive the benefits of;
1) 17 years experience in massage, aromatherapy and healing
2) Muscle assessment of back, shoulders, hips, neck and legs during the initial consultation
3) A caring, confident and professional service supported by the code of conduct and ethics of the largest aromatherapy association in Britain ~ the International federation of Professional Aromatherapists (IFPA)
4) A complete treatment solution.

A unique service in Worcestershire

Combinine science with sensitivity.
Every day I see great improvements in the clients whom I treat (my neck is moving easily again, the ache in the shoulders gone, that low back pain removed, those tired aching legs now feling free to run again).
I blend the essential oils (where indicated) individually for you and you take the bottle home with you , with detailed instructions.
In addition I may show you how to use the power of your own mind at the same time so you can use this simple technique when you are at home or at work; we use positive pictures which are specific to you. (I promise you this is easy as you find your own pictures). These positive images enhance the effects of the blend of essential oils you take home with you and will empower you.
You can continue to use the massage oil at home, alongside special stretches and thus benefit far beyond the those benefits already received during your treatment. Detailed advice will be given.

The massage, essential oils and positive images are able to be so effective because they are promoting the response of your body to the naturally occuring chemical messengers (eg adrenaline, histamine, hormones, neurotransmitters of the nerve cells). These chemical messengers are being produced by the cells of your body all of the time and they finely tune your body’s many functions.

Feel relaxed and relieved that those symptoms are feeling better.

I've also seen tremendous results with;
M.E, stubborn back pain, shoulder pain or wrist pain which other health professionals have not been able to shift, also confused emotional states when the emotions can be trapped within the muscles of the body

Allison Prebble - Kinesiologist


Allison is dedicated to prevention as well as to alleviating the condition. She is able to help clients more effectively if each person commits to self-help and improving their health regime.
Allison works well with deep issues, identifying imbalances in the body by monitoring your ability to hold your muscles against light pressure "muscle testing", and advises you on any food intolerances. Allison also uses flower remedies which help balance emotions.
In a Kinesiology treatment the Allison uses the client’s muscles to give bio-feedback from the body about the cause of the problems being experienced and the solution to these.
Allison is a systematic Kinesiologist which means that for any one issue she checks all possible causes be they structural, biochemical (e.g. nutritional deficiencies, intolerances), emotional or energetic (e.g. dehydration).
For example if you have bloating, constipation or IBS and you’ve changed your diet but are still having symptoms then there could well be an underlying issues such as candida albicans that diet alone is not addressing.
Allison uses biochemical markers to establish causes and then tests for which supplements (e.g. vitamins, minerals, herbs) will start to eradicate the problem.
Allison has treated people as young as 2 months old and as mature as 86.
Kinesiology is all about balance, making sure that one of your organs isn’t working overtime to compensate for another that is under par.
As many conditions have an underlying biochemical imbalance, Allison may well recommend you to take supplements for a few weeks as part of your treatment.

Skin conditions

Skin conditions can be an over proliferation of too many dead skin cells which cannot be removed at a fast enough pace; often accompanied by inflammation making the area appear red. Softening the skin with essential oils and special carrier oils used in aromatherapy and the resulting relaxation allows the skin to return to normal. Sometimes there are relationship issues which can be explored by life coaching or hypnotherapy ~ or it may be a reaction to your cat or a detergent. We can check this out for you with kinesiology.

IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)

IBS is known to be caused by stress and the resulting over production of adrenaline. We first recommend looking at any food intolerances which will undermine the immune and digestive systems followed by aromatherapy to rebalance, in particular, the hormonal systems and also to sooth the tummy area. Hypnotherapy will help you deal with any underlying issues which may be the initial cause of this condition.

ME (Myalgic Encephalitis)

Often, in cases of ME, chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, areas of the body are very tender to touch and gentle stroking with soothing essential oils induce a feeling of relief. Reflexology will support the body’s natural healing systems while kinesiology checks for any foods which are detrimental and any food supplements which will support the person. Alongside, or later on, life coaching will allow the client to explore the ways in which safe boundaries have possibly not been maintained.
