I recently attended a show where there were quite a number of complementary therapies stands offering taster sessions to the public. This is a wonderful way of promoting our work since it gives people a chance to try a therapy before committing to a full appointment. All in all it was hugely enjoyable until I noticed that a very young child, that was obviously healthy and well, was receiving a form of energetic ‘healing’ on one of the stands.
