Pat Thummanond |
 |
Pat Thummanond
is a registered physical Therapist and certified Craniosacral
Therapist with over twenty years of experience. Besides
specializing in Sports medicine, Pat sought to combine
integrative modalities to her practice to assist those that
cannot be helped through conventional means. This led her to
pursue holistic approaches taught by the Upledger Institute, a
leader in the field of alternative healing.
Pat is a visiting consultant at Atsumi and specialises in
Craniosacral Therapy, visceral manipulation, lymphatic
drainage and Core Synthesis.
|
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, hands on
method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a
physiological body system called the Craniosacral system-
comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround
and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch
generally no greater than 5 grams, a practitioner releases
restrictions in the Craniosacral system to improve the
functioning of the central nervous system. A profound change of
the body, mind and emotion often occur on or several days after
a session.
Lymphatic drainage uses flat hands and fingers
to create subtle wave-like movements to activate lymph and
interstitial fluid circulation, stimulate the function of the
immune and nervous systems to detoxify the body, a great way to
compliment and assist the whole fasting and detoxification
program. With Manual Lymphatic Mapping (MLM) of the vessels,
therapists can assess overall circulation and determine the best
alternate pathways for draining body-fluid stagnations.
Core Synthesis has been described as "a
gentle hands-on persuasion, offering the body a path of least
resistance to self-healing, emotional unwinding and soul
connection." It is an integration of multiple techniques
addressing multiple body systems: from the core craniosacral
system to the emotional holding places of the viscera
to the toxin releasing system of the lymph. By
addressing all systems together, the physical and
emotional releases can occur so as to be guided along the path
of resolution.

Osteopathic therapy/treatment
aims to improve the overall structure of the body by means of
manipulation and naturopathic techniques which improve nerve
function and blood circulation. Osteopathy places great
emphasis on differential diagnosis, examination and medical
history of the patient, as well as diet and nutritional
factors.
Acupuncture is one of many
therapies which affect ‘subtle energy’ also known as Chi or
Qi. The treatment may be given using very fine silver or
steel needles (disposable) in order to stimulate the body’s
energy via certain acupuncture points located on the body.
Electro-puncture and moxibustion are also used. The point of
focus is upon the yin/yang energy that flows through
acupuncture (channels) meridians. Acupuncture helps balance
this constant flow of energy and assist the body’s natural
healing process.
Homeopathy is a system of medicine based on
the law of similars, which states that ‘like cures like’.
Remedies are made by using the smallest amounts of a specific
substance, which is then diluted and succussed in order to
produce potentization. Homeopathy is a safe and effective
therapy for both children and adults. Homeopathic remedies
consist mainly of electro-magnetic energy patterns from their
original source. This means they can also be re-produced
electronically by duplicating the energy pattern, i.e.,
.energy medicine.

Iridology is the science of
analyzing the delicate structures of the iris
of the eye. The iris reveals body constitution, inherent
weaknesses, levels of health and transitions that take place in
our body according to the way we live. Nerve fibres in the iris
respond to changes in body tissues by manifesting reflex
physiology that corresponds to specific tissue changes and
locations.

Tim Robins - Certified NLP & EFT
Practitioner |
|
EFT, Emotional Freedom
Technique, is a surprisingly effective and painless way
to release excessive mental and emotional stress. EFT
recognises all emotional issues as being caused by blockages
in the body’s energy system. So similar to acupuncture, it
addresses such blockages by opening the meridian energy
pathways. Yet rather than using needles, you use your
fingertips to tap on specific points during the session. In
just a single session you can expect to feel a significant
reduction, or even complete release, of overwhelming emotional
stress.
| EFT
& NLP are very effective for: |
- trauma & abuse
- stress management
- fears & phobias
- depression
- panic attacks/anxiety
- back pain
- chronic disease
- addictions
|
- allergies
- ADD/ADHD
- post traumatic stress
- headaches/migraines
- breathing difficulties
- performance fear
- attracting abundance

Integrative Wellness
sessions are an interactive and transformative experience
designed with the simple intention of cultivating awareness of
the connection between body, mind, emotions and spirit.
Specialised massage techniques work with the deep physical and
subtle energetic structures of the body along with guided
breathing exercises and visualisation to find a new balance
point within – a place from where painful and limiting patterns
are released, unhealed wounds brought to the surface and
resolved and the flow of creative and generative life force
energy restored. It is from this space that we begin to tap into
the innate wisdom within us to manifest a life that is more
conscious, joyful and free.
Therapeutic Bodywork

physical and soft-tissue syndromes, ailments, injuries,
stiffness, tension, pain, numbness and more with a combination
of techniques based in Thai massage, myofascial release,

and others.
Five-Element Emotional
Detoxification
A deeply transformative and interactive experience, which
combines thoracic, abdominal and pelvic massage techniques with
specific breathing exercises, guided meditation and sounds to
clear stagnant energy and toxins from internal organs, fascia
and meridians on both the physical and emotional levels. This
powerful process also imparts an existential understanding of
five-element theory, an awareness of archetypal emotional and
energetic patterns within our organs and ways to keep these
energies flowing freely.
Yogic Healing and Chakra
Balancing
Specialized stimulation of marma, acupressure and lymphatic
drainage points together with guided meditation, breathing
exercises (pranayam) and sound to open the energy centers of the
subtle body (chakras) to strengthen, realign and balance the
endocrine, nervous and lymphatic systems of the body. This
session is interactive and will help to increase energy
awareness and learn self-healing techniques that can be used
anytime anywhere and by anyone.

About Eric Van Wanseele
Eric is originally from Europe but has lived in Phuket for
many years. He was the founder of the Silent Sound Center and
he currently hosts meditation/reiki sailing retreats. He is a
Reiki Master, meditation Teacher and sound therapist.
Reiki is a safe, gentle,
non-invasive form of hands-on healing that increases energy,
reduces pain, produces deep relaxation and a general feeling
of well-being. Reiki heals by flowing through the affected
parts of the energy field and charging them with positive
energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in
and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and
feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy to
break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reiki clears,
straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the
life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

Life Coaching
In the modern world, most of us have lost our real direction and
purpose in life, resulting in poor physical health, stress,
financial worries and a feeling that something is missing in our
lives. To suppress this feeling, we distract ourselves with
meaningless activities such as watching TV, drinking alcohol,
smoking, taking drugs and any other activity that stop us being
alone with our thoughts. The result is a feeling of helplessness
as we settle for anything that comes along in our lives. Life
coaching teaches us how to take responsibility for our life
situation, regain control and give us the confidence we need to
achieve anything we want, whether it is health, wealth or
happiness.
