Nevis / Special Interests / Health Practitioners

By Feona Gray

On an island as gentle as Nevis it is not surprising that a choice of complementary therapy disciplines and healing activities is available. There are two Reiki practitioners working together in Nevis, practising at the Oualie Beach Resort - one is Clare Yearwood, a Reiki Master.

At Oualie Beach they also offers facials, aromatherapy massages and reflexology, which can be a powerful stress buster for those needing to heal burnt out minds and bodies, particularly when combined with Reiki. Consider a Reiki, massage and reflexology combo a couple of times a week during your stay, or for serious healing, four hour long Reiki treatments on consecutive days, again in combination with reflexology and massage. You will end up feeling fantastic but be prepared for a physical, even emotional reaction around the third Reiki treatment when the body goes through detox. The fourth session should settle everything down. Remember to drink plenty of water with any of these treatments.

If you are a complementary health practitioner (or anyone else for that matter) wishing to put together a group holiday retreat, Nevis is a lovely place ‘to be’ – some might say that there is magic in the soil. There are some rather special activities, too, such as stargazing on the beach. One or two of the hotels such as The Hermitage and Oualie Beach (although more active) would be a good location if you are looking to organise a group for a Yoga, Pilates or Reiki retreat. Prices outside the winter season would be perfectly affordable, and most hotels would negotiate terms for a group booking.

Complementary health practioners on Nevis include:

Carib Wellness - Eden Life Rejuvenation Centre, Charlestown - Holistic integrated medicine centre founded by Dr Miranda Fellows BSc, a Chiropractor and licensed physician specialising in Energy Medicine with post-graduate certification in Applied Kinesiology, Paediatrics, Acupuncture, Sports Medicine, and Clinical Nutritional Therapy.
