ABOUT US
Tom Burgess has been involved in the field of Holistic Health Care for over 16 years. He has trained and practiced in the UK, Australia and New Zealand. His approach is simple, smart and effective. By looking at the neurological systems the fundamental 'wiring' of the body we are able to isolate and correct the very cause of specific health issues and make real improvements to general Well-Being.
By working with the 'cause' of the problem, rather than trying to cancel out the symptoms, we have helped hundreds of people to get well and feel great where conventional doctors have given up.
At the Ashstar Wellness Center we consider the complete picture - diet, posture, lifestyle, medical history, stress and most importantly the Mind-Body-Spirit connection. We understand the ongoing plans we put together for our clients need to be realistic enough for them to apply in every day life to maintain the benefits gained during their program.
Tom's special interests are Kinesiology, Neural Organization, Bio Feedback and Nutrition.
The Mind-Body-Spirit Harmonics Program has evolved over the last 20 years; it has been designed to give 'Self' deeper understanding in relation to all areas of Life. We are beginning to understand the 'Medical Model' is to a large extent built on the non-sensical idea that germs/bacteria and viruses are 100% to blame for the poor health of society; ignoring completely that Immune System Functionality is the determining factor in whether we get sick or not.
We are now in a position to take more responsibility of our general Health Care requirements. Hopefully there will come a day when our 'Government/Medical Industry' take their attention off 'massive profits' and switch their focus to the Well-Being of the patient.
Feel free to e-mail Tom if you'd like to find out more about the theory, application and benefits of these Health Sciences, or if you have specific questions.
