Your specialist training has made such a difference to the relaxation work that we do at Twinkle House Multi-sensory studio.
After working through your routine and then using your CDâ€™s for visualization, the children and young people we work with
appeared much more responsive and able to participate in relaxation, and understand what being in a state of calmness actually feels like.
This is an amazing development for us at Twinkle House that will enable us to give greater support our clients with ADD/ADHD,
Autism, Aspergerâ€™s and those with social, emotional and behavioral issues and their families
Jill Appleton, Manager

I just wanted to say thank you once again for a great experience today.
Today I have been reminded of the importance of these techniques to keep a
mind healthy and able to cope with the things that life throw at us. I now
want to pass this gift on to the children in my school and Vanessa and I
have some embryonic ideas that I think will get us started.
Thank you, thank you thank you.
