Welcome
" Welcome to complementary medicine and better health with Marie-France Bewley.
I look forward to hearing from you to discuss how aromatherapy, reflexology, massage or Manual Lymphatic Drainage [MLD] can suit your individual treatment requirements."
Marie-France feels incredibly privileged to have been training for over twenty years with the pioneers of her chosen therapies:
- Professor Hildegarde Wittlinger of the Dr Vodder Clinic in Austria for Manual Lymphatic Drainage [MLD]
- Clare Maxwell-Hudson, London, and Dr Gitananda of Pondicherry, India, for massage
- Professor Arnould-Taylor for aromatherapy
- Dwight Byers of St Petersburg, Florida, for classical reflexology
- Anthony Porter for Advanced Reflexology Techniques [ART]
- Lynn Booth for Booth Vertical Reflex Therapy [VRT]
Qualifications & Experience
All the therapeutic seeds were planted in Marie-France when at fifteen she suffered from anorexia, and received the soul destroying French orthodox treatment in a Paris mental asylum.
Now that she has healed herself completely, and has learned so much in the process, she is very keen to help her patients help themselves through breathing, exercises, diet, her unique aromatherapeutic preparations and simple vertical reflexology on hands. The common factor of all the therapies is that they help the body heal itself, balance the mind, and heal the emotions at all stages of life.
Marie-France is passionate about her therapies, and regularly attends advanced courses to enhance her knowledge and refine her skills. For example, the Dr.Vodder Clinic requires their qualified therapists to attend a four-day review every two years, but Marie-France considers it essential to invest in the 2 week intensive course instead under the supervision of Professor Hildegarde Wittlinger at the Vodder Clinic in Austria.
By combining different therapies, Marie-France can help to achieve results more quickly than with individual therapies alone.

Austrian Deep Moor Range
Marie-France has recently introduced into her practice the remarkable healing properties of the Austrian Deep Moor (Tiefenmoor) through the exclusive Elixea range (www.moorspa.com).
This Deep Moor from Vorarlberg in Austria was discovered by Dr Walter Kosmath, a balneotherapist, who helped pioneer the field of Moor therapy over 50 years ago. The Deep Moor is used throughout Austria in hospitals, clinics and spas as a treatment for a variety of health problems such as: acne, arthritis, burns, cellulite, chronic fatigue, circulatory problems, colds and flu, depression, digestive problems, fibromyalgia, fluid retention, general health maintenance, gout, gynaecological problems, infertility, jetlag, lumbago, lymphodoema, menopausal problems, menstrual disorders, migraine, muscular aches and pains, myalgia, neck and shoulder tension, neuralgia, neuritis, psoriasis, rheumatism, rheumatoid arthritis, scar tissue retraction, sciatica, skin disorders, weight loss.
Marie-France also uses Dr Berkowsky's Skin Brushing System, an innovative, gentle yet powerful therapeutic method designed to tonify blood and lymph flow while improving skin health and beauty.
Marie-France teaches her patients how to use the Deep Moor preparations as a home therapy.
