About
Me
|
Hello
& thank you for visiting my site
My
name is Samantha Atkins – most people call me Sam for
short.
I
am often asked : “so how did you get into Reflexology then Sam ?”
Well,
after working at several large organisations, mainly in
Office Management, I felt completely burnt out by office
life: long working hours, little job satisfaction &
the hell of commuting!
My
friend was having Reflexology (which she raved about) to
help with her IBS & she suggested I go along to
de-stress.
|
|
The rest, as they say, is
history !
I
owe a lot to that Reflexologist, Jo Drummond MAR, whose love,
support & encouragement really inspired me.
I
had always been interested in complementary therapies and had
completed some short courses in colour therapy, crystal healing
& Louise Hay’s “you can heal your life” programme, but
I had never really thought I could do something I loved so much
as a “job”.
Fast forward a few years to
where I am now & I couldn’t be happier.
|
I
created TheWholeU
in 2004 to encourage people to explore the positive benefits of
holistic therapies and in doing so encourage them to look at
themselves as a WHOLE – mind, body & spirit.
I
really believe that Reflexology is my vocation and I have a real
calling to help people, especially in the area of fertility –
in which I have had great successes.
|
I
was privileged to be the first therapist in London to be invited
to join Nourish-Fertility’s
“satellite clinic network”, providing services to
women who want to conceive naturally and I am also undertaking
additional training with Nourish & Niravi
Payne , pioneer in the Mind – Body link in
fertility, to become a Whole Person Fertility Programme
Practitioner. (see
links & articles
page for more details)
It’s
been an honour for me to share in & be part of the journey
for so many women and couples in their quest for parenthood –
with 33 pregnancies and 29 healthy babies born to date. (June
2006) (see
Fertility, Pregnancy & Women’s Health page for more details)
As
well as seeing private clients, I also provide regular corporate
therapies for several large companies & their workforces
including Flightcentre UK, Sky TV, The Department of Health
& BMI.
I
also provide events therapies at conferences, roadshows &
relaxation days across the country – My sister company www.NoStressNow.co.uk
deals with these.
