  • “Tanya treated me using this technique a few weeks ago and my confidence and focus have benefited in truly extraordinary ways.”

    — SJK, Berkshire (Access Bars Session)

  • "Tanya was great at explaining the technique and had a beautiful way of being gentle, yet informative with my body. It is quite a different way of me working with my physical body, as I am usually led by feeling into it, but I felt encouraged & supported by Tanya."

    - Laura, Hampshire

  • "I was full of energy!!! I have seen a change on a metabolic level, not in the head, but in the body and that is more profound for me, because I can tell my head anything, but the body doesn’t always follow suit. So all is well in my world. I feel I am on an awakening path, quite amazing."

  • “I was feeling physically tired and mentally drained after 2 months, stress car accident and a day surgery hysteroscopy appointment .During treatment I drifted into a dreamlike state, I saw colours, after that my body was relaxed. At the day surgery the next day the doctor said everything is okay and they did not get anything for the test because everything is all clear. Thank you Tanya for the miracle cure. No cutting no biopsy.”

  • “Brilliant, kind gifted therapist. I have worked within the holistic field since, I was 20 and I have tried all kinds of therapies with various people. Tanya is extremely gifted kind and considerate when we work with her, she gives you her full attention and will suggest techniques and other things you may not have thought of. I have found her able to get to the root of issues I had around a digestion that others have missed.”

  • "I found Tanya to be a very good Reiki teacher, she answered all of my questions clearly , in a way that I could understand and was very welcoming and warming. The course is just the right length, in that it is long enough for you to absorb all of the information, but not too long that you run out of things to do. I would recommend Tanya to anyone wanting to learn Reiki, as she has a very relaxed teaching style. I enjoyed the course very much."

  • "I came in November 2011 for lessons, suffering from back pain, stress, feelings of being overwhelmed. After 10 lessons this was considerably reduced. After 40 lessons I can sometimes notice stimuli and its effect on me i.e. when I move consciously or unconsciously. I habitually walk with a straighter back and I am taller. I am aware of my sitting posture . I am aware of holding and releasing tension in my body."

  • "I came in March 2011 for lessons, recommended by the John Radcliffe Pain Specialist Clinic, Oxford, and by my Osteopath . I wanted to be pain-free and mobile, to be young again and calm and acceptable. After 13 lessons I had become more aware of my posture, of my body, and of my inner self."

  • "I began the Alexander Technique in January 2016 hoping for general tension relief and a cure of related vocal problems. After 21 lessons there have been noticeable results and voice improvement, as attested by others. It has also strengthened my back, something I was not expecting! The technique is very useful for anyone with a busy lifestyle, I left every lessons feeling very refreshed."

    — The Reverend Lawrence Barrett

  • "Tanya was very supportive and encouraging and always available to answer any queries. I have known Tanya for several years and attended Reiki-share evenings with her. These were very enjoyable and I found her a very caring and well informed teacher. I was then trained by Tanya as a Reiki Master, attending several classes covering both the theory and practical aspects of Reiki Mastership. The classes were well structured, but relaxed and the pace was just right."

  • "Recently when shopping in a large department store I entered the changing rooms with some items, when I noticed the setup of the mirrors. Having had numerous Alexander Technique lessons I have become much more interested in my posture and developing self awareness using observation through mirrors. Whereas at home I am normally looking in a single mirror, this changing room had three different mirrors set up sp you could view yourself from any angle. I found this extremely interesting and spent the next ten minutes viewing my posture from all angles, completely forgetting that I had come in to try some clothes on!"

  • "I met Tanya last year on a course of Acoustical body in Prague. After that I offered her we can send distance body processes and since time we do it. Tanya is a very opened, friendly, sincere and also sensitive person who is here to help other people. She has lots of experiences not only with working with bodies but she does also various courses. She gives always the best from her, each time we change a distance process, its a great and a very strong experience for me. Me myself I work with people and I always appreciate people like that. Its not easy to work with people but in the other hand its one of the most beautifull work when through a session can change so much for the person."

  • "I had been interested in alternative healing for many years, especially in the healing power of the human touch. I started on a quest which landed me on the doorstep of the wonderful Tanya Whannell. I did the level one Reiki training with Tanya and discovered that it was exactly where I needed to start my journey. That was 2 months ago and I cannot wait to get started on Level 2 as well as explore all the other wonderful things she teaches. She is an excellent teacher and practitioner wo is most attentive and caring. Along with her expertise she also has an amazing sense of humour and a positive outlook which makes being in her presence so uplifting and enlightening. If you are looking for Reiki Therapy either as a therapy for yourself or to apply for some-one else. I am honestly and without reservation recommend, Tanya Whannell."
