Various Rochdale Borough Council Staff Members
The 1-2-1 sound healing sessions gave me the opportunity to focus on myself & my own healing. I was nurtured/ healed by the soundbaths & by Gill herself, she brings much compassion & understanding to the work.
Over the sessions I experienced a cumulative healing process & heightened self awareness. My anxiety & depression reduced & arthritis in my hip reduced also.
