The blossoms of the linden have been used among cultures throughout the world to promote health, soothe the emotions, and nourish the spirit. The tilo tree is the symbol of the medicine we practice. As a tree has one common trunk and many branches, we believe in one common medicine that integrates all the tools, technology and health wisdom available in our modern times

Gavin Allister is a certified reflexologist with over six years of experience. Coming from a background in biology with specialization in neurophysiology, he became interested in alternative healing therapies, of which reflexology was the one that most resonated with him. Gavin practices Integrated Foot Hand Ear Reflexology, also known as the “Flocco Method.” Many experts suggest that Integrated Foot Hand Ear Reflexology balances the nervous system and strengthens the immune system; its profoundly relaxing and soothing effect can be felt since the very first session. These general features make it particularly helpful for individuals in stressful situations. But Integrated Foot Hand Ear Reflexology can also be very targeted, helping to relieve headaches and migraines, toothache, sinusitis, digestive problems, urinary problems, PMS, lower back pain, sleeping problems, and many other health issues. |
