Energy Healing Melbourne
Astrid Ritenis at Energy Healing Melbourne offers life-changing, holistic treatments for clients through clinical hypnotherapy and energy healing.
“My business is about helping people that are struggling with anxiety, depression, fear or addiction. I also work with people who are very sick with terminal illnesses, disenfranchised youth, young offenders and women experiencing domestic violence,” explains Astrid.
Astrid has been providing hypnosis and energy healing therapy for twenty-five years. Drawn to the profession through her own challenges, Astrid realised there was a gap in the health system.
“There was no place for people to be treated holistically on every level - physiologically, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually, and emotionally.”
Every client that visits Astrid is assessed on their needs and requirements. Astrid then designs a program based on hypnosis, EFT tapping (an alternative acupressure therapy) and energy therapy to provide balance, clarity, self-love and self-worth.
“Hypnosis is a deep state. Some people are sleeping, some are still very awake, and some are in a meditative state. When they’ve been guided and supported, it generally takes about ten to fifteen minutes before they get into that beautiful place. We then do some therapy, and start to clear the negative thoughts, patterns, addictions, anxieties and fears and the lack of self-esteem and self-worth,” Astrid explains.
“Energy healing works to relax and calm down the nervous system, the adrenals. A lot of people call it reiki, but I've been trained in many different modalities in the last twenty-five years, and I call it energy therapy.
“People come in when they're incredibly overloaded, and it helps to rebalance and calm them so that the hypnosis works much more effectively.”
Astrid loves meeting people and seeing them walk out of her practice happy and doing life again.
“I offer a very warm, tailor-made service, and I have a lot of empathy and compassion. Whilst I am a clinically trained hypnotherapist, I welcome anybody here from any life experience. This is a place for them to feel very safe, nurtured and cared for.”
