For Clarity
As regulated primary healthcare professionals Osteopaths have had exemption to continue to work throughout 'lockdown'. So yes you can consult and be treated (if appropriate) by an osteopath, even when you may not be able to see your GP. If it is considered that your problem does require further attention from elsewhere, then we can advise as such and write an approprate referral letter if needed.
Aside from one week when we closed as a precaution I have continued to work since the initial lockdown in March, sometimes coming in for only one or 2 patients. After 6 months, with extended appointment slots, the additional work involved and limited number of people I can practically see in a day I feel that I need to increase the fees to have any chance of sustainability.
Health Supplements
At the front of our centre we have a health food shop where we stock a range of top quality nutritional and herbal supplements (typically not those that you would find in a supermarket), eco friendly toiletries, etc.
-
The Original Alternative CBD Oil and CBD related products - widely reported to help with a wide range of conditions that we are not permitted to mention due to insufficient research. Our Cannabidiol (CBD) products are organic, stronger than most (non prescription) available in the UK, competitively priced and you don't need to pay the postage.

New Therapies
Tui Na & Fire Cupping
With
Emma Kemp
Tui Na Tui Na (Twee Nah) is - Traditional Chinese Medical (TCM) Massage, which looks at both the physical problem; such as muscular & skeletal issues and other factors that may contribute, such as stress, anxiety, grief, etc.
Using a variety of soft tissue techniques (i.e. rolling, grasping, stretching & pressure points), and joint mobilisation, Tui Na works on the physical, emotional and energetic levels. This is done by working to;
-
Release acute or chronically tight muscles,
-
Mobilise stiff joints,
-
Stimulate the circulation to; A) Clear away the pain causing inflammation and B) Encourage fresh blood where needed to assist tissue healing & repair,
-
Invigorate the flow of Qi (vital energy) by working along the energy channels
Tui Na can be done through clothing, traditionally done through a cotton sheet or directly on the skin. Sometimes Moxa (a TCM herb) is burnt to warm certain areas, i.e. acupuncture points or channels and fire cupping can be used to disperse congested blood, lymph and Qi circulation.
Tui Na is used in hospitals in China and is actually more popular than acupuncture.

Who Are We?
The Holistic Centre offers a wide range of complementary therapies and treatments that are performed by skilled, fully qualified and insured therapists, in a professional, and relaxing environment. We are Wirral's premier holistic health centre and offer the widest range of complementary medicine and holistic therapies in the North West.
Our Mission is to raise both local and global awareness of holistic and complementary therapies and medicine.
We constantly maintain high standards of hygiene and customer service, while maintaining a calming and tranquil atmosphere, to ensure the highest quality of treatment
Quite simply to present a different way of looking at health, a holistic view using a common sense approach of treating the person, rather than a symptom, syndrome or condition.
Been told to live with it?
Often we see clients that say they've been told to "live with it", but with the right treatment and advice many people can improve significantly or fully recover.
If you have a problem and the conventional medical approach has done little to help or guide you, then maybe it's time to look at it a different way and give us a call.
It may be time to try something different!
Browse our pages and see if there is a therapy or treatment to suit you.

Introducing the New Asyra PRO©
Bio-Energetic Health Screening
Commonly referred to as 'allergy testing', EAV (Electro Acupuncture According to Voll) or Bio-Resonance - the Asyra PRO does much more. Options include food / environmental sensitivities & whole body systems scan. Also, compatibility screening for vitamins, minerals & other nutritional supplements, herbal remedies & able to produce electro-homeopathic remedies.
For those that have ever had a 'sensitivity'/ allergy test with an EDS (Electro Dermal Screening) system (i.e. VEGA test, MORA, BEST, etc), then you'll have an idea of what this is about. This sort of approach is also known as Bioresonance therapy and is based on the long established EAV (Electro Acupuncture according to doctor Voll) system of diagnosis. We have just purchased the very latest EDS system called the Asyra PRO, which incorporates automated screening facilities for issues with;
-
Vitamin and minerals
-
Food allergy, sensitivity / intolerances
-
Hormone balance
-
Trace minerals
-
Dental work & dental materials (i.e. amalgam filings, root canal work, anaesthetics, antibiotics, etc.)
-
Environmental sensitivities (electromagnetic radiation, mobile phones, office environment, etc.).
-
Toxin tracing - suggested source of toxic influences i.e. water supply, processed foods.
-
Internal organ and body tissue health
The results of the screening does not necessarily mean a life time of avoidance.
