Fantastic gong bath and shamanic journey with Shivani at a retreat I was on this weekend. I enjoyed it so much I wanted to leave a review. She held sacred space so beautifully. Highly recommend, she also did a lovely fire ceremony on the opening night, my first time of going to a ceremony like this. She's clearly an advanced practitioner and multi talented in the healing arts. Thank you so much x

I have received numerous treatments over several years from Shivani including Kambo, Access Bars, Sound Healing and Auricular Acupuncture all of which have been remarkable, she is a brilliant intuitive practitioner who is trauma informed and able to hold a safe space whether experiencing a 1-2-1 session or in a group context.

Access Bars is particularly fascinating - not only was it an incredibly relaxing treatment, the positive impact it had on my life was instant and noticeable. I recommend this treatment when you feel out of alignment with life.

I run retreats and felt privileged that Shivani was involved in my last event in Dartmoor, helping to create a memorable weekend. She opened up sacred space with the land we were on and held a deeply moving full moon fire ceremony for over 20 people, the emotion around the fire was palpable. The following day, Shivani held a cacao and sound session starting with room energy clearing and individual sage smudging before settling all attendees with an exquisite soundscape leading into a guided shamanic drumming journey. The impact on the group was heart warming to witness on top of which, I received positive and profound feedback from all who attended throughout the weekend and upon returning home.

Shivani will share her wisdom and healing magic with you whether you see her on a 1-2-1 basis or ask her to attend a group event.

I have attened two ceremonies that Shivani has led. Both extremely moving and beautiful experiences. She holds and creates space for everyone in a natural and relaxed manner. The music is incredible, really allows you to relax, drift and you feel it physically as well as emotionally through the vibrations. Everyone's experiences are different but for me, both times, very powerful connections were made with nature and animals. There is an honest, open and supportive atmosphere which is led by Shivani. I will definitely be going back and would recommend her to anyone. Shivani is a beautiful, kind, supportive and generous soul ❤️

Booked in for an Indian Head Massage.
Having never had one before I was unsure what to expect, the only word I can use is WOW!

I walked away feeling so relaxed with such a weight lifted.

If you wondering about trying this, book it!
I will definitely be going back.

Thank you

Such a lovely experience and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of my treatment.
Sarah is every inch the professional, friendly and calming therapist and instantly put me at ease given that this was the first time I had ever received a treatment with tuning forks and sound bowls.
I have already booked to return for another treatment and am very much looking forward to it. Thank you 😊

I had a Sound Massage with Sarah using the Tibetan singing bowls and tuning forks.
What a fantastic experience. It was not only relaxing but I felt I could breathe much easier and deeper afterwards.
I will certainly be booking another appointment.

Alcyone Therapies Tibetan Sound Bowl

Comfortable peaceful surroundings, ambient music and an attentive confident therapist. The content and sequence of my session was explained, and I knew what to expect of the therapist Shivani throughout, with time for questions.

Usually performed with the client laying on their stomach Shivani adapted the session to accommodate a complaining back.

A traditional smoke cleansing ceremony was performed before I made myself comfortable on the floor mattress. Shivani spoke in a relaxed tone and prepared to begin the session, checking I was comfortable and warm.

Several bowls each with a different note were used in the session, a bowl was placed on my body and held in position then struck lightly. The vibrations started strongly and gently decreased, taking a few minutes each time to silence.

The bowls were held on my torso and arm’s over 45 minutes I felt the vibrations of the bowls note travel through my clothes and into my body. A pleasant sensation that brought a sense of being ‘undisturbed’ and ‘rested’ where the sound bowl had been played.

Other bowls of different notes sounded around me which increased and raised the vibrations; against ambient background music a calm and tranquil environment was created.

A no participation lie down which your mind and body will love you for, I placed a small cloth over my face so I could fully loosen up and I relaxed so much I had to stop myself dropping off into a little nap.

I do not remember fidgeting or moving I felt still and thoughtless, I finished the session feeling unstressed and tension free, a full body and mind unwind.

Would highly recommend.
