Aarti

Aarti Shah

My name is Aarti Shah and I qualified as a McTimoney Chiropractor in 1989 and have been working continuously throughout that period taking McTimoney Chiropractic to Bahrain, Singapore, Nepal and Europe. I have been running established clinics in London since 1995. My clients range from 3 years old to 90 years of age and even 3 generations from the same family.

As no individuals are identical, my sessions are tailored to get the best for each patient’s return to good health. I firmly believe in continually striving to improve my treatments through my own self-development as it is imperative to lead by example and be the best for my clients. My aim is to prevent the recurrence of clients’ complaints, emphasising lifestyle changes, dietary advice, stress management, and exercise programmes, discouraging dependence on continuing treatments as a long term solution to problems. I focus instead on prevention.

All Chiropractors in United Kingdom have to be state regulated and adhere to a Code of Practice set by the General Chiropractic Council. I am a full member of both the General Chiropractic Council and the McTimoney Chiropractic Association and have to meet their requirements annually to continue my membership.

In addition I am recognised by various private Health Insurance Companies that will pay for my sessions if your individual health policy covers it. I also liaise with Doctors, Physiotherapists and other professionals that work with the musculoskeletal structure and often get referrals from them.

Anna Sofie Frogner-1cropped

Anna Frogner

I’m passionate about helping others connect with their own innate wisdom because I used to be completely disconnected from myself. I lived a life of ticking boxes - doing what you “should do”… but without feeling fulfilled. I lived in my head. I was constantly comparing myself to others, feeling stressed about living up to the high expectations I set for myself. I always felt like I didn’t belong and was haunted by patterns (experiences) that kept reaffirming my belief that I wasn’t “good enough”. Outwardly I always portrayed an image of things being “good” - suppressing any undesirable emotions and blaming others when things weren’t “right”.

Until one day I woke up and started the journey of moving from a perspective of “life happens to me” to “I create my reality”.

Intuitively, I was drawn to body- and energy focused healing modalities. And today I understand why: although helpful, my problems didn’t resolve simply by talking about them. What I needed was to address the 85%+ of my inner world that ruled my life, outside of my conscious awareness (i.e. my unconscious and subconscious “limiting patterns” - that kept me stuck, repeating the same unwanted experiences and playing small in life). And for that, my body became my greatest teacher.

What is now Innerworks is the blueprint that transformed my life.

Using this blueprint, I learnt to tap into my own innate wisdom. As a result, my body started to unwind and release physical, emotional, mental and spiritual blockages. First there was a lot of shaking, twitching and emotional releasing, but over time, my body started moving more in a wave-like flow without my conscious directing. The best part of this: I started to experience more flow in other aspects of my life. I transformed my health, my relationship with myself and those around me and discovered my purpose.

And this for someone who used to be disconnected, with zero clue about how I was actually feeling or how my anxiety and limiting beliefs were running the show.

… If I can do it, so can you!

Helen-craven

Helen Craven

Helen Craven MA(RCA), DCH, DHP, ITEC is an experienced Hypnotherapist using advanced Clinical Hypnotherapy, she is also a Reiki Master and teacher and is a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists.

Helen started her working life in the arts, which is probably where she learned to look beneath the surface and try to understand, and bring out, the beauty in all that is around us. Life shows us many things – both good and troubling, but how we perceive things and how we respond to events, is always our choice. We all have the power and potential to enhance our lives.

Helen moved from the arts to running a complementary health clinic (initially as a favour to a friend and then because it was wonderfully rewarding and fascinating) and has been working in the field of complementary therapies for the last 20 years. In 1997 she created the Craven Clinic in London W6, a multi-disciplinary complementary health centre that brought together over 30 different therapies. Having graduated top of her group from the Institute of Clinical Hypnosis, London, and having worked with great success with a wide variety of clients, dealing with everything from stress management and smoking cessation to pain control and palliative care for the terminally ill, she decided to close the clinic in 2003 and concentrate exclusively on working with individual clients and small groups.

Helen continues to study and train with the best teachers, keeping up to date with new techniques, so she can work with clients for maximum good effect. She works with, not on, her clients, so they learn techniques for themselves and gain a life-long empowerment that will stay with them throughout their lives.

I'm an energy healer, mirror, guide, to empower you on your way home to your self, deepening your own awareness to your purpose.

Today I live in North West London with my partner. My life is centred around connecting to nature and furthering my knowledge of the energy that surrounds us but cannot be seen. In the last 10 years I’ve been privileged to work with medicine women in Peru, South Africa and Australia, continuing to deepen my experience in shamanism and trans-generational trauma healing. I see clients from all walks of life, with differing goals and ambitions. My speciality is with working with complex trauma, addictions and sexual abuse.

He tends to base his practice around clients’ individual requirements; working with a variety of disciplines helps. Proceeding with oil or non-oil based treatments with the support of a couch, chair or futon, the understanding of range of movement, lymph drainage and relaxation, is beneficial within his practice.

Outlets are important to him and they aid further development of his bodywork experience. These may be of a physical nature or the appreciation of the arts.
