Rather than focusing on the symptom, BodyTalk finds the hidden causes of illness by looking at the physical, emotional and environmental factors. BodyTalk is Whole-Healthcare, which means addressing the whole-person and their whole-story, using the entire context of their life to improve their health. Health challenges often arise for a variety of reasons. When a practitioner is trained to look at the whole-person, emotional, physical & environmental influences - the true underlying causes of disease can be balanced. Every choice, every experience has contributed to your current state of health. Whole-Healthcare synchronizes the whole-story by understanding the influence it has on your health.

What is involved in a session?

BodyTalk incorporates a comprehensive system of non-invasive techniques drawn from a wide variety of eastern and western approaches. It incorporates state-of-the-art science and philosophy to help the body unlearn the habits, beliefs, biochemical pathways and postural patterns that are restricting the healthy functioning of the body-mind complex.

Bodytalk is an alternative health modality that focuses on the root cause of stress, pain and illness in the body. It addresses imbalances within the body and its’ systems. Through neuro-muscular biofeedback, the practitioner establishes a protocol of priorities that are identified by the client’s body. Utilising light touch and tapping techniques, the nervous system is ‘reset’, bringing the bodymind out of emergency mode and re-establishing communication, allowing the innate wisdom to speed up recovery and healing.

The BodyTalk practitioner does not diagnose disease or perform massage, manipulations, needling/injections. Clinical experience has shown that once the body's overall systems are balanced through BodyTalk, clients have exhibited significant improvement in many areas of health.

About Bodytalk

Lymphatic Drainage

The lymphatic system is an integral part of the immune system and influences everything from organ function, hormonal levels, energy flow and energy levels, heart and circulatory health, and emotional balance.

Lymphatic Drainage assists on the physical level with conditions like swelling around an injury and chronic edema. It also helps to remove harmful substances from an area like pain-inducing chemicals, hormones and molecules of emotion.

Lymphatic Drainage is also great preventative healthcare. Healthy cells and tissues rely on a good flow of fluids around them to bring oxygen, glucose and other necessary building blocks so that they can create all the vital products that are designed to keep the body in good health.

The Veltheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage (VMLD)

The Lymphatic Drainage sessions I offer utilise the Veltheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage (VMLD), an innovative and highly effective approach to encouraging healthy functioning of the lymphatic system that was developed by the originator of The BodyTalk® System, Dr John Veltheim.

This technique supports the lymphatic system in a unique way by utilizing knowledge of the lymphatic system from both a Western and Eastern perspective enabling powerful physical as well as emotional shifts.

A unique ‘kinesthetic visualization’ technique is employed to encourage movement of interstitial fluid and plasma through tissues into the lymphatic system, essentially working at a pre-lymphatic stage.

Natural detoxification

About your practitioner, Lynne

Originally from the north of England, Lynne followed her artistic and inventive heart to work as an exhibition designer for many years. The work of creating commercial, heritage and museum exhibitions took Lynne all over the world and broadened her perspective figuratively and literally. After relocating to New Zealand in 2021 she worked for many years in the field of museum visitor research at Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.

It was in New Zealand, whilst receiving treatment for back pain, that Lynne was introduced to The BodyTalk® System. The back issue was the ‘loudest’ symptom however in reality there had been a lifetime of anxiety, digestive issues and adrenal fatigue which had been helped by many health approaches over the years but never fully resolved. The healing and personal insights experienced through the initial sessions prompted Lynne to start learning more about BodyTalk. And so started a journey of inquiry, learning, and self-discovery. Lynne is now delighted to be symptom free and enthusiastic to walk with others on a healing journey as an accredited Certified BodyTalk practitioner.

Lynne is empathetic and understanding, bringing training in human behaviour, in addition to a wealth of life experience, to assist her work with clients.

Her BodyTalk private practice is run from Lotus Eco Village, an intentional community in Kāpiti, New Zealand. Set in 8 acres of native bush in the foothills of the Tararua Ranges, the aim of this co-housing community is to live in an environmentally, socially, and financially sustainable manner. At the heart of the community is the Lotus Yoga Centre and natural therapy center.
