What do you do as The Kiwi Health Detective?
The main thing is helping people recover from chronic illnesses that tend to be classified as untreatable or incurable. People come to me after they’ve been to multiple specialists. I mainly deal with things like chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia – I help them understand the cause. I also focus on stress and anxiety reduction. Research shows that 80 per cent of illness is caused by stress. Trapped emotional energy is a big factor in physical symptoms. Healing is about becoming aware of oneself and understanding how to live under the laws of health instead of against them.
How did you become a therapist?
I was diagnosed with clinical depression in my late 20s. I was then also diagnosed with chronic fatigue in my mid-30s. I didn’t want to take medication so I started to look for solutions. After about five years of being unwell, I decided to do something I’ve always wanted to do if I only had a few months to live. So I sold my house and set off on a round the world trip and that was the beginning of me understanding why I was ill. It took about 10 years to get well. I realised I needed to deal with my emotions from the past, I knew what I had to work on. I don’t think I could help people if I hadn’t gone through it myself. I’ve tried about 200 different types of therapies so I know what’s out there. For the full article click here
