Others may have experienced music improvisation through music therapy. The classically trained are often expected, as part of their practice, to develop skills in extemporisation.

Featured Practitioner

Animal Healer Millie Wood Swanepoel.



"Animal communication is an interpretation from the animal’s perspective, which you as decision maker have to take at face value.

Millie spends a quiet time connecting with the animal and the works with both animals and human to get an understanding of the relationship and help resolve the issue.

I have a keen interest in the well being of animals and their relationship with humans. When working with animals that have experienced trauma I may use Reiki or Craniosacral therapy."
