"Kate Gardner is one of the most astonishing practitioners I have ever met. She runs a clinic, a division of what she does is Colonic Irrigation. I have been having them for about 45 years. I have had them in many countries of the world by supposedly "the best" however I have to say Kate tops them all. She is incredibly compassionate, caring and knowing. Her wisdom shines through as she knows exactly where one is and what one needs. After my husband died, I went there and what I received was the gentlest most loving experience ever. I came away feeling like I had received a loving massage. Kate is exceptionally gifted, and I recommend anything she offers. Her clinic is beautiful, serene, welcoming, spotless and her room is divine, I felt myself just surrendering to the space the moment she opened the door. Highly recommended."

"I'm so grateful to Siggi for guiding me through a truly nurturing and supportive introduction to breathwork. The continuous conscious breathing is perfect for retraining my muscles after chronic chest pain, and it has also helped to bring up emotions and insights I can now work through. Siggi is so calm and non-judgemental, providing encouragement, empathy and a little humour as required. Once I really got the hang of the breathing techniques, my sessions left me feeling relieved after an emotional release, and provided some true 'a-ha moments'. I've been trying to activate the parasympathetic state, and Reiki with Siggi has felt like the perfect fit. It leaves me in a blissful state - feeling safe, connected, peaceful and relaxed... yet also energised."
