They often say that a change is as good as holiday. Whether that means listening to Beethoven instead of your usual indie beats or trying the watermelon chewing-gum instead of the spearmint, getting off your well-beaten track once in a while can be a good thing. Of course, when it comes to alternative therapy, you don’t want to go so far off the track that you get lost in the forest of treatments like Energy Deflecting Golfer Pendants or Rebirthing Therapy. Stick to the tried and trusted alternatives and pay R150 for a detox treatment at Soft Touch Wellbeing.

Leaders in natural health treatments and alternative therapies, Soft Touch Wellbeing have gained a reputation in Port Elizabeth as being the go-to for a natural and holistic approach to health, whether it’s kicking stress to the curb, clearing out built-up toxins or creating a more energetic and focussed life. In operation since 2003, Usha – Soft Touch’s owner – is a firm believer in healing the body from the inside out and has the skills to back up her ideas.

While it’s possible that you’ve never heard of Rebirthing Therapy before, even people who live in sea-caves have heard of Reflexology. Working on the principle that certain parts of the feet and hands correspond to other parts of the body, stimulating the hands and feet can help other body-systems back to fully-functional operation as well as improve nerve-function and blood-supply. It also works under the assumption that blockages in your qi – or energy flow – can cause all sorts of teeth-gnashing and woe-inducing feelings. The meridian massage also works on the energy flows in the body, pinpointing acupressure meridians to release discomfort and rebalance energy – which helps to relieve insomnia and headaches. Finish off with a lymphatic drainage massage, which combines deep and relaxing strokes to improve circulation, boost the immune system and bring fresh oxygen to body tissues, and you’ll feel like a new person.

Like spring-cleaning your shelves from their collections of glass knick-knacks, detoxing your system will free up more space for ceramic-swans in your bloodstream.

Qi Fact: The body’s energy flow was discovered by astronauts in the early 1980’s after an emergency crash-landing on the moon. The cause of the crash was discovered to be a colony of bats in their hydraulic system, blocking their flow. One of the astronauts compared their crash to the way he felt after not getting enough sleep.
