About Cosmic Health and Mia

I have been a practising complementary therapist since 1999, beginning my career with Reiki and the physical therapies: Massage, Nutrition and Reflexology.  However, since childhood I have been drawn to the energetic disciplines such as crystal and colour healing, practising meditation and using mantras.  I qualified as a British Wheel of Yoga teacher in October 2011 and continue to integrate both the physical and the energetic in all my practised disciplines.

I hold several yoga classes (private, council  and university run, including GP referral), in the Newport area.

I use a wide variety of influences and techniques, creating therapy combinations to facilitate healing on every level, uniquely suited to the client's individual needs.

My aim is to be able to offer a unique and truly holistic service which forms a complete and coherent package including stress management, counselling, and therapeutic intervention.

As well as being a therapist, I have also worked as a lecturer and administrator in a private college dedicated to complementary therapy training.  I have worked in a variety of settings across South Wales, including health shows, charitable institutions and events, promotional events, conferences, small businesses, hospitals, schools and government departments. I am dedicated to offering complementary therapies and/ or yoga as part of stress management initiatives in the workplace and within charitable organisations.

I strongly believe that the capacity to heal ourselves and others is present in everyone, however I also frequently run Reiki first and second degree workshops to inspire and educate anyone on their individual journeys.

I am currently nearing completion of a foundation course in cognitive behavioural therapy, (CBT) and I am in early stage of involvement with the MEND programme (working with overweight and obese 7-13yr olds.)

Testimonials:

"I have been receiving Reiki treatments for over 2 years.  The treatments help me to successfully manage my neurological disease both physically and emotionally.  I have also been attuned to Reiki First and Second Degree - this allows
me to supplement my Reiki treatments as necessary. The weekly sessions are very enjoyable and leave me feeling refreshed and relaxed, allowing me to better cope with the stresses of everyday living and also to develop coping strategies for my illness." (D.I)

"I initially started using the services of Cosmic Health to aid in the recovery of a shoulder injury that I sustained whilst competing internationally as a powerlifter. I found the treatments that Cosmic Health provided to be very soothing and relaxing and I subsequently visited Mia on a weekly basis as I feel it's a great way to help me to relax and unwind."  (R.

"I have been receiving fortnightly treatment from Cosmic Health for about 6 months and find that the treatment is beneficial in relaxing me and taking the stress out of the working day. I have always had a back and neck massage, which helps the spondylitis condition that I was diagnosed with many years ago.  The atmosphere is calm,  with melodic music in the
background which is set at the perfect volume to muffle any corridor noises from passing members of staff.  The overall result is that I feel wonderful after a treatment."  (D.R)

I've been seeing Cosmic Health for over 3 years and in that time have used the full range of therapies available, including Indian Head Massage, Reflexology and Back Massage. All therapies are given in a relaxed,comfortable and professional atmosphere and have proved beneficial for my lower back and neck problems.They have also been ideal for giving an energy boost after long hours at the computer, for de-stressing in general and have proved an excellent remedy for the aches and pains following an excess of Christmas shopping! I would recommend these therapies to anyone who needs to rid themselves of knotted muscles, take time to unwind or just generally feel better in themselves". (prefer to remain anon)

Twelve months ago I dislocated my shoulder, after having it put back at the hospital I underwent 6 - 8 weeks of physio which did help a little. However, ever since I have had a problem with the shoulder, including pain and stiffness. Even went back to the hospital who informed me there was nothing they could do and it would get better in time. Instead of getting better, it got worse. That is when I decided to try Mia at Cosmic Health. All I can say is I wish I had gone sooner, after only two sessions there was a remarkable difference in my shoulder. I can honestly say it feels as if Mia has magic hands as she has worked wonders and I will certainly be continuing treatment. I have recommended her to several members of my family and friends and will continue to do so. (V.M)
