About Nicky
​
My whole life has been inter-weaved with all thing's health! I suffered with illness of various kinds over the years including asthma as a child, and years of pain and fatigue related to Endometriosis. As a young adult I trained as a Dancing Teacher, but my career ended early as the result of an ankle injury for which I did not receive the correct level of treatment and rehabilitation.
​In 2013 following the birth of my son, my health took a drastic turn for the worse. It resulted in an undiagnosed prolapse, and worsening of my endometriosis which led to several major surgeries. Chronic pain and fatigue ruled my life, and I was eventually diagnosed with M.E. / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.​ Despite 7 ½ years of illness and disability, today I am fully recovered, but more than that, I feel the healthiest I have ever done in my whole life! I have gone from struggling to stand for more then 10 minutes at a time (and requiring the use of a wheel chair or mobility scooter), to running on a frequent basis each week and working out however I choose to!
​​My recovery didn't just happen, it was the result of finding many pieces of a jigsaw puzzle over many years and placing them together. It was a hard, difficult, uncertain and often a long lonely and frustrating journey of trial and error. ​I am now passionate about using my experiences along with my professional skills and knowledge to enable others to achieve their own healing as quickly as possible! ​​​​​​

The Creation of
Empowering
Wellness
The Empowering Wellness company was born out of a real desire to provide those who have chronic illness or injuries with a pathway to healing.
​
Originally offering general Sports Therapy, remedial massage and a unique passive movement technique (aimed at reducing chronic pain) as well as wellness coaching for people living with chronic pain and chronic fatigue conditions. The company has now expanded it's services to further cater for the holistic needs of people both in preventative health as well as to enhance natural healing. This has meant that therapies such as foot reflexology, clinical hypnotherapy and Emotional Freedom Technique can be accessed as part of your unique health and wellness package.
​
Unfortunately, modern health care is limited in its approach and solutions. Patients are often left for long times waiting to get medical appointments which, when they come, are often rushed and lack real understanding of the multi-dimensional impact of the condition the individual is seeking help for.
​
Rather than seeking to get to the root of the problem, the solutions provided tend to be a sticky plaster approach! In the long term this may lead to a poor solution and even additional problems such as medication side-effects.
​
Whilst it is important to recognize that there is still a place for seeking professional medical advice and treatment options, such as medication, this should not be relied on as the 'one and only' approach. To do so can cause feelings of hopelessness and despair that there are no other solutions and that you have to continue to suffer with no resolution in sight.
​
Here at Empowering Wellness, we believe everyone has the ability to heal through accessing their own inner healer! We know that healing from injuries and illness IS possible when you put all of the parts of the healing jigsaw together. We provide a truly unique, personalized approach to facilitate this for our clients. We place a high value on taking the time to listen to how the illness, injury or condition is affecting the individual which we see as a vital and integral part of the Empowering Wellness Healing Journey and process.
​
Our approach has a strong emphasis on learning to tune into and listen to yourself and the signals your body and mind are sending you. We teach techniques which help calm the nervous system, and how you can access the sub-conscious mind to activate healing at a cellular level.
Our priority is getting the best results for every person who comes to us. Therefore, as part of the Wellness Journey, we are not afraid to suggest a range of approaches which fall outside of our direct remit. We have collaborative working relationships with others who are experts in their own fields such as a Life and Relationship Coach, Chiropractor, Health and Nutrition Coach and a CBD Oil Specialist company as well as a Corporate Resilience Expert. We are also happy to investigate all other avenues including main stream consultants should this be something our client wishes assistance with pursuing as part of their healing jigsaw!
