( For more in depth information please scroll down )
What is Energy Healing? Energy healing is an ancient form of natural medicine that helps to restore the balance and flow of energy throughout the body, to help you get to an optimal state of physical, emotional and spiritual health.
The ancient, time tested methods I use have been handed down for over 3,000 years. They are very powerful energy clearings and activations which can help physically, emotionally and spiritually and support a greater sense of peace within your mind, body, and spirit. A return to equilibrium.
Do I have to understand it for it to work? No, I didn’t understand what is was when I first experienced these healings. Their effectiveness is the same whether you understand it or not.
How long does it take? Allow 2 hours for the consultation, healing session and chill out time afterwards. A 1 hour top up healing is then available for future sessions.
Where does it take place? The sessions are done in person with both of us in the same room, they take place in my home studio in Mellieha, in a relaxing Eco Spa in Naxxar or A Calming Holistic Wellness Centre in Sliema when travel is possible I also hold monthly clinics in Central London.
I may also be able to travel to your home, Contact me for details. If you’re not able to travel I also offer a special remote healing session – See Distance Healing.
What happens during the session? You don’t need to do anything or say anything during the session, you simply sit on a chair, or lie down, depending on which treatment you have, and relax. You remain fully clothed, as I work around you, clearing and balancing your energy fields with my hands which will be approximately be 4-12 inches away from your body for most parts of the session. I may lightly touch, or place crystals on certain chakra points on the body.
Do I need to prepare or bring anything? No, just come with an open mind and heart.
I want this, when can I have it? You can email me or phone or whatsapp me or text me on 00356 99355901 to make an appointment
Aftercare – Following an Energy Healing session or an Activation, some people may experience detoxification symptoms. These can be physical and/or emotional, Generally these include temporary emotional highs or lows or physical detoxification. Some people experience tiredness or increased energy levels.This is completely normal and will pass after a couple of days. It’s releasing whatever needs to be released. Remember to keep hydrated by drinking lots of water and perhaps have a nice relaxing Epsom salt bath.
Energy Cleansing products are available to purchase … Epsom Salts, Aura Purifying sprays, Saging kits, Crystals, Incense and all things magical to continue the self care at home.
FAQ’s More In depth details
Whether you call it Energy Healing, Energetic Healing, Energy Work or Energy Medicine they are all terms for any therapy that manipulates the energy circuits in our physical or subtle bodies to regain balance and facilitate our body’s innate healing mechanisms.
With the conscious and skilled use of therapeutic modalities it benefits the recipient on subtle and emotional levels, as well as in their general and physical well-being.
Since everything is energy at a core level, all healing ultimately involves energy. Most healing methods are focused on the physical, mental and emotional levels of life, without recognition of the deeper underlying energy.
Energy healing works purely with the energetic level of our being. Because everything is made up of patterns of energy, working directly with energy influences the physical, mental and emotional, as well as the spiritual level. Energy healing is thus by nature “holistic”.
Some of the Benefits of Energy Healing:
Creates deep relaxation and aids the body to release stress and tension
It accelerates the body’s self-healing abilities
Aids better sleep
Reduces blood pressure
Can help with acute (injuries) and chronic problems (asthma, eczema, headaches, etc.) and aides the breaking of addictions
Helps relieve pain
Removes energy blockages, adjusts the energy flow of the endocrine system bringing the body into balance and harmony
Assists the body in cleansing itself from toxins
Reduces some of the side effects of drugs and helps the body to recover from drug therapy after surgery and chemotherapy
Supports the immune system
Increases vitality and postpones the aging process
Raises the vibrational frequency of the body
Helps spiritual growth and emotional clearing
When we are relaxed and stress-free, we are able to restore our natural ability to heal. When you are in good health, regular energy healing therapy will increase the bodies built-in defenses. This will manifest itself as confidence and outward harmony in dealing with everyday events. You will gain a positive outlook on life.
Must I be of any particular religion/ spiritual phase for treatment to work?
The short answer is no. I have clients from all walks of life and religious and spiritual persuasions. Ranging from clients who have no religious or spiritual persuasion at all to highly spiritual and / or religious people. I suppose its like asking yourself .. do I have to know how electricity works in order to turn on the light switch and I’m guessing the answer is no you don’t :) If you look back in history there were times when some people were afraid of electricity and now almost everyone uses it in some form or another :)
What can I expect during a Holistic Energy Healing Session?
Each holistic energy healing session is completely customized for every client, so every session will be different based on the client’s needs at that time, and each person will perceive the results differently than someone else.
With energy healing in general, whatever you feel is just right for you. Energy healing can be a very relaxing and comforting experience.
For some, a treatment feels like a wonderful and subtle energy is flowing all around and through them. Others may experience a deep meditative state, sometimes falling asleep, and later becoming calm, centered, and recharged.
Some describe the feeling of giving, accepting, and the rebalancing of life energy force as a tingling sensation (pins and needles), or muscles twitching, or warmth, coolness, or even throbbing or numbness.
And there are those who may feel a burning sensation, fatigue or body movement, dizziness, drowsiness, vertigo, or an uncontrollable need to laugh or cry. Clients often report feeling heat emitting from the healer’s hands, due to the exchange of energy.
Some people don’t feel anything during the first couple of sessions, but are able to increase their sensitivity over time and enjoy the experience and benefits. It should also be noted that a person does not have to feel anything or believe in energy healing for it to work properly, but they should not resist it. They should have an openness and accept that it might work at some level. It’s well worth the effort, so keep doing it.
Because each energy healing session is tailored to your specific needs. We begin by creating an intimate dialog that helps us determine what combination of theses modalities would best suit your unique situation.
By combining the healing powers of several different modalities such as Reiki, guided meditation, sound healing, chakra clearing/balancing, aromatherapy, hypnotherapy , guided meditation and strategically placed, natural crystals and stones you can experience profound healing on all levels.
Once on the treatment table you breathe in the aroma of essential oils as your entire body is being bathed in a symphony of sound healing frequencies or of Kimberley’s voice and gentle frequency music. The vibrations of singing bowls that can be played are felt deep within your being as you resonate with the energies of the crystals that are placed along your chakras.
The Reiki used by Kimberley is supercharged through a process called Quantum Touch. Energy shifts as you release what is no longer serving you and you receive the healing touch. You melt into the peace and serenity that resides here and you find yourself thinking… “Wow, I’m definitely coming back for more.”
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of energetic, physical and spiritual healing. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “God’s Wisdom or the Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. So Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy.”
It is administered by a trained practitioner who channels this life force energy through their hands and into the receiver. If one’s energetic system is blocked or out of balance, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is clear and vibrant, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
What is Sound Healing?
Sound healing is the therapeutic application of sound frequencies to the body/mind of a person with the intention of bringing them into a state of harmony and health.
When an organ or body part is healthy, it creates a natural resonant frequency in harmony with the rest of the body.
When the vibration of a part of the body is out of harmony, we have dis-ease. With dis-ease, a different sound pattern is established in the affected part of the body. When sound is projected into the dis-eased area, correct harmonic patterns are restored.
There are many methods of healing with sound. Mantras and chants have been used for thousands of years. Many acoustic instruments are used in a variety of ways to effect change. The human voice is perhaps the most powerful musical instrument.
Fabien Maman, in his book The Role of Music in the Twenty-First Century, gives dramatic accounts of the effects of sound on cancer cells, using various acoustic instruments and notes, as well as the human voice. He has incorporated the use of sound, color and movement in his work, addressing the subtle bodies, where dis-ease is created.
The use of sound healing therapy is not just a new age phenomenon, but extends back thousands of years into the ancient times where mystical instruments of all kinds were used to remedy illnesses and revive the spirit.
From the Aboriginal use of the didgeridoo to heal physical ailments, the ancient oriental use of the gong for spiritual attunement, the use of mantras as with the Hindis, the Icaros (medicine melodies) of various Indigenous peoples from Central and South America, or to the music therapy that has been used in many cultures and traditions for thousands of years.
How does it work?
Sound helps to facilitate shifts in our brainwave state by using entrainment. Entrainment synchronizes our fluctuating brainwaves by providing a stable frequency which the brainwave can attune to.
By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves and it then becomes possible to down-shift our normal beta state (normal waking consciousness) to alpha (relaxed consciousness), and even reach theta (meditative state) and delta (sleep; where internal healing can occur).
The human body is made up of 70% water; this makes it a very good conductor of sound.
Modern medicine now uses sound waves to break up kidney and gallstones in the body. The machine used is called a Lithotripter. This machine bombards the stones with a specific sound frequency for one to two hours.
The patient is admitted in the morning and discharged in the evening. Generally no anaesthetic is needed. With most patients only one treatment is necessary to break the stones down. The pulverised stone is passed out of the body through the urine.
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is now used in some NHS hospitals and private clinics to treat prostate cancer. The therapy closely targets tumours, causing much less damage to healthy tissue than conventional surgery or radiotherapy.
Every organ, every bone, every cell in the body has its own resonant frequency. Together they make up a composite frequency like the instruments of an orchestra. When one organ in the body is out of tune it will affect the whole body.
Through the principle of resonance it is possible to use sound to bring the body back into harmony hence avoiding the need for drugs or surgery.
What are Chakras?
As the universe is composed of spinning wheels of energy, we too, at the inner core, spin seven wheel-like energy centers called chakras.
They are measurable patterns of electromagnetic activity, centers for the reception, assimilation and transmission of life energies.
Each chakra reflects essential aspects of consciousness, forming the master programs that govern our lives, loves, learning and illumination. Anodea Judith, in her book Wheels of Life, delivers a comprehensive treatise that is scientific, cultural, psychological, and esoteric. She writes:
“Chakras can be open, closed or any of the various stages in between. These states may be basic aspects of someone’s personality throughout most of their life, or something that changes from moment to moment, in response to a situation. An ailing chakra may be unable to change its state easily, being “stuck” in either an open or a closed state. Then the chakra needs healing, by uncovering and removing whatever is blocking it.”
“The seven major chakras are all inseparably interrelated. A block in the functioning of one chakra may affect the activity of the one above or below it.
For example, one may have trouble with personal power (third chakra) because of a block in communication (fifth chakra) or vice versa.
Or perhaps the real problem may lie in their heart (fourth chakra) and only manifests in these other areas because it is buried so deeply.
In examining the theoretical System as a whole and applying it to your system (lower case) as it uniquely occurs within you, one learns to sort out these subtleties and patterns and make self-improvements according to their goals.”
There are times when we desire our chakras to be open, when we are receiving information or healing. There are also times, as when we are in traffic, that we want some of them to be closed!
Color is visible sound, and sound is auditory color. Both light and sound affect the chakras, especially when used in conjunction. Each of the energy centers is associated with a specific tone of the musical scale and with a specific color. Red, the color that vibrates the slowest, corresponds to the root chakra. The colors follow a rainbow progression, with violet as the highest vibration, corresponding with the crown chakra.
What is a Chakra Clearing or Chakra Balancing?
Chakra balancing is a service performed by a trained practitoner. When you have a physical issue, it creates weaknesses in your emotional behavior. If there are certain fears and emotions you are holding on to, you experience physical restrictions, too. When the blocked or stagnant energy is released from the body, it can undo any tightness, stiffness, or malfunction of that area. Therefore, having the disharmonious energies cleared can correct energy imbalances in our emotional and physical bodies thus preventing these imbalances from developing into physical ailments or dis-ease.
If you have body aches or stiffness, or certain reoccurring emotions and fears, consult the information below to find out which chakra may be affected or blocked.
1st or Root Chakra

When Balanced:
Once fixed, we live in the present moment. We have an unshakable trust in our inner guidance. The lesson of this chakra is live mindfully.
More than one chakra blocked? It’s very common. When one is blocked, the other chakras begin to compensate and either become overactive or under-active.
What are Crystal Singing Bowls?
Crystal singing bowls are sound healing instruments that are made from pure crushed quartz and heated to about 4000 degrees in a centrifugal mold. They are available in clear or frosted bowls in a variety of sizes, ranging from 6 to 24 inches in diameter. The bowls emit a powerful, pure resonance. Each bowl is tuned to a different music note. The notes, C, D, E, F, G, A, B correspond with one’s energy centers or chakras. Some bowls harmonize with other bowls, and when both are played simultaneously, the effect is exquisite and synergistic.
Crystal bowl therapy, commonly used by alternative health practitioners in sound healing sessions and/or ceremonies, helps to balance the chakra system and re-energize the auric field. These body and energy work practitioners have found that sessions with clients are dramatically more effective with the addition of crystal sound therapy. Clients immediately go into a state of full receptivity and relaxation. This allows the practitioner to go deeper and more easily reach underlying issues. Healing is thus made possible on all levels. Each individual is unique as to which energy center(s) require balancing, so you may find yourself drawn to different tones each time you experience them.
The notes of the crystal singing bowls are tuned to specific vibrational frequencies found within the human body. Thus when the sound moves through the atmosphere and touches us, it causes our cells to move in different directions at a different speed, in rhythm with the sound wave.
This puts us in harmony with the sound wave. The sound penetrates into our very cells and rebalances them through oscillation and resonance.
Hearing is not a prerequisite for benefiting from these healing properties. Studies have shown that sound has a direct impact on the mental processes, muscles, nervous system, (heartbeat, pulse) digestive system and circulatory system. Alignment with the tones of the Singing Crystal Bowls is one of the most dynamic forms of sound healing found today.
Dr. Mitchell Gaynor, director of Medical Oncology and Integrative Medicine at the Cornell Cancer Prevention Center in NY has been using sound, including Tibetan Bowls, Crystal bowls and chanting in work with cancer patients for many years.
“If we accept that sound is vibration and we know that vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies. One reason sound heals on a physical level is because it so deeply touches and transforms us on the emotional and spiritual planes. Sound can redress imbalances on every level of physiologic functioning and can play a positive role in the treatment of virtually any medical disorder.”
According to an article in Spirituality and Health magazine, his research shows that the sound vibration of the bowls affects the disrhythmic motion found in cancer cells and cause a harmonious transformation.
Research by Dr. David Simon, medical director of neurological services at Sharp Cabrillo Hospital in San Diego, who now directs the medical services at the Chopra Center, found that chants are chemically metabolized into ‘endogenous opiates,’ that act on the body as internal painkillers and healing agents.
What is Crystal Therapy or Crystal Healing?
Crystals have been used, revered and enjoyed for many thousands of years, both for their aesthetic beauty and for the peace, relaxation and harmony they seem to invoke.
Crystal therapy is an ancient healing system concerned with treating patients holistically through the precise placement of crystals on the body and the surrounding room. This means that, unlike Western healthcare (which tends to focus on treating one symptom/ailment at a time) crystal therapy addresses the patient as a whole, paying as much attention to his or her spiritual and emotional well-being as to their physical health.
Crystal therapy is a non-invasive, relaxing, natural and enjoyable process.
Whether you believe in the physical healing properties of crystals or not, the therapy itself will offer you a chance to lie back, relax and get in touch with your body’s energies so you can leave feeling refreshed, restored and de-stressed which is a perfect platform for improved physical health.
How does it work?
Crystal therapy is based on the premise that crystals can, in a sense, communicate with the energies flowing around the human body. On a microscopic level a crystal is a network of repeating geometric patterns made up of compressed ions, atoms and molecules.
According to crystal therapy, every crystal has its own unique electromagnetic charge. These charges, or ‘healing vibrations’ interact with the body’s energy centers to remove energy blockages and restore a healthy flow through the body and mind.
Crystal therapists choose crystals carefully for each individual patient as each one is believed to have a unique healing power. Crystal therapists then place the chosen crystal on different areas of the body in a grid-like fashion designed to stimulate energy.
Sometimes the color of the crystal will be chosen to correspond with the color of each chakra energy point on the body. From the tip of the tailbone to the top of the head the colors are as follows: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
