If you listen very carefully to your heart and not your head, you might just hear the gentlest whisper of divine guidance. Then again, you might not, in which case, you could try visiting an energy healer. This was my experience when I went to visit Natalia Suvalko, a 32-year-old intuitive body specialist who helps people manage physical and emotional pain, restore balance to their bodies and live their best lives.

Having studied nutrition, naturopathy and energy healing techniques, then graduated with a diploma in massage, Natalie says there’s a big need for massage for pain management, “but it’s also about dealing with the nitty-gritty and getting down to a deeper level. On a physical level with massage, you’re rubbing to get deeper, and the same goes for energetic work. It’s like peeling back the layers of an onion and getting right down to the core – the soul.”

So what does energy healing involve? Natalia says, “We all have an energetic field around us and emotions can get trapped in it. When I touch someone, that’s what I’m picking up on. In an energy-balancing session, I get into a calm, meditative flow. I see and sense what clients are going through or what they’re holding on to – I feel their emotions and where the energetic blocks are in their body.”
