Holistic Therapies
Holistic Healing and Therapy at Oscailt

Holistic therapies recognise the body as an integrated organism. When any element is out of balance there are natural therapies that we can draw on to re-establish a sense of harmony.
Oscailt offers many ways of accessing our natural healing capacity depending on our own preferences. We have treatments that deal directly with the body through touch, body realignment, ancient plant remedies sound and voice healing. While these treatments are not substitutes for conventional medical interventions they can be very helpful in the healing process.

Integrative Psychotherapist
Eva Garcia
Eva is an Energy Healer, Integrative Psychotherapist, Play Therapist & Creative Art Therapist fully accredited by the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) follows its code of ethics and attends regular supervision. For her is very important her self-care, personal and professional self-growth as a parallel process to help others.
Eva’s humanistic-integrative approach has the aim to help in the spiritual, emotional, physical and cognitive levels, and for that she uses a wide range of techniques and methods that enable to work with all dimensions of the client, where all difficulties are placed within a larger context of growth, and deeply trusting in the client’s resilience and inner strength. In Oscailt, she mainly works with her holistic energy and ancestral healing toolkit integrated in the psychotherapy processes or as a one-time session: Reiki master and Seichem energy healing, EMF (Electro Magnetic Field) balancing technique, Psych-K advanced (reprogramming limiting core believes), Pellowah energy healing (shift of consciousness), Pineal Gland Activation and Quantum Biology protocols, and Family Constellations.
She will help you to identify the psychological issue to be treated during the psychotherapy session, taking care to have sufficient time to use these techniques. Be aware that using energy psychotherapy techniques certain changes can be so fast that they require specific psychotherapeutic times and spaces to be integrated in a constructive and harmonious way in a coherent path. The sessions with Eva will help you discover a better way, one that can lead to a life of happiness and fulfilment, helping you to improve your quality of life by promoting high self-confidence, to be more inspired, motivated and empowered, help you to develop successful relationships, to recover from traumatic events, to boost your immune system and energy levels, reduce your stress & anxiety, and help you to transition if you are experiencing important life changes.

EFT Practitioner
Grainne O’Neill
I love my work!
Originally, I worked in the corporate sector and through my own challenges, when I developed chronic fatigue, I became interested in the whole area of personal development.
This led me on a journey to eventually discover Emotional Freedom Technique, or tapping as it is more commonly known. I have been working in this area for over 7 years, and find it the most effective way of getting to the root of the issue.
At the moment, a lot of my work is about bringing people back to the joy in their life.
Emotional Freedom Technique/tapping, is a system where you tap on acupuncture points as a way of releasing anxiety,negative beliefs and behaviours.
The aim is to get to the core reason that you feel unease, and tap on points around the body to release this feeling.
Between sessions, you may be given some tapping to do for yourself.
Of all the money that I have spent on myself over the years, I have to say that you top them all. I felt such a sense of relief from the emotional pain that I carried for so many years.

Herbalist, Nutritionist, Iridologist
Sofia Perez
Sofia Perez, PhD, MH, Ir, Dip. Nut.
Sofia is a qualified Master Herbalist, Iridologist & Vitalist Nutritionist graduated from The Irish School of Herbal Medicine and member of The Irish Association of Master Medical Herbalists (IAMMH). Her background has been focused in scientific research and teaching education since she was awarded PhD in Chemistry Science. She chose to change her career six years ago because of the huge impact she had on her health. The ancient wisdom of medicinal plants inspired her to make a career change and combine her knowledge in science and herbal medicine.
She loves supporting people to learn about plant medicine, deepen their connection with nature and their cycles and guide them to make changes that make them feel empowered and free. Working in alignment with nature, the body will find its own way to balance through health. She feels deep gratitude to assist and witness this full process of transformation.
Her approach is to educate and offer different natural methods and dietary advice to live a healthier life by using preventative holistic herbal medicine and evidence-based solutions to get to the root cause of every person’s unique needs.
I was amazed at at the quality and quantity of information that Sofia provided me with the iridology, physical and personality characteristics. Throughout the sessions, I was able to understand the root cause of certain habits and let them go. These sessions have resulted in anemotional regeneration of past experiences as well as learning what is good for me in relation to my dietary habits. I couldn’t imagine the depth of the analysis from the iridology and the accurate information.

Holistic Healer
Therese Ryan
When you find yourself at a crossroads, would you like guidance and support with any big decisions that need to be made?
Or more clarity on your next steps forward?
Do you ever feel fed up and stuck in life?
I offer healing sessions that combine the following, (tailored to individual needs):
- Kundalini Reiki
- Tera Mai Reiki
- Pranic Healing
- Sound Healing Therapy
- Aromatherapy and Massage
- Emotional Freedom Technique
- Mindful intuitive and energetic coaching
Included with each session is follow up support and after-care.
I have explored and experienced many different energy work modalities and areas of meditation for over 20 years. Having started my journey studying Counselling and Mediation, I gradually came to the conclusion that we need to do more than talk. Talking is necessary but after a period of time we need to find ways to energetically release our past, our feelings and our emotions which hold us back from moving forward in an emotionally healthy and positive way.
My healing sessions can help and facilitate to release these emotional blockages.
- Ease Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Grief, Insomnia and Pain
- Increase Confidence, Relaxation, Well-being, Peace, Joy and Health
