Nicky is a Breathing Educator/Buteyko Practitioner and a member of the Buteyko Institute of Breathing Health. After training in 2016 she established The Breathing Clinic in Nelson and is one of only a handful of full-time Buteyko specialists in Aotearoa. She has considerable experience running her own clinic, offering breathing assessments using capnography and teaching courses for the public and for health professionals. She teaches groups and individuals, both in-clinic and online, throughout NZ and internationally.

Be prepared to have what you thought you knew about breathing turned upside down. For example, did you know the more you breathe the less oxygen you get? Were you aware that deep breathing is a western health disaster? Delve deeper into these seemingly outrageous statements and learn how Nicky was able to use her breathing knowledge to overcome a lifelong phobia of public speaking and 13 years of epileptic seizures.

This fascinating presentation is of relevance to anyone who breathes, and particularly to those with breathing related conditions - asthma, hay fever, snoring, sleep apnoea, nasal congestion, chronic cough, anxiety, migraine, hypertension and impaired sporting or speaking performance.

It’s a shift, not a stop:

Not a pause, but a season's shift,

Where the body rewrites its script.

A chance to bloom in ways unseen,

A fertile ground for what has been.

Ortho-Bionomy® is a form of a gentle, non-invasive body work which stimulates the self-corrective process within our body.

As practitioner, I accompany my client in a process of recovery by building a bridge between the conscious and subconscious responsiveness and awareness; to assisting and supporting the client to become more aware of their physical sensations and use this awareness to identify possible changes to improve their daily well-being along with their ability to increase their self-healing practices.

Self-Care exercises for the client to use following the treatment, help to reinforce what took place in their body and enables them to continue to integrate and implement those changes. Self-Care practices then become easier to maintain.

The goal of Ortho-Bionomy® session is to release muscular, emotional tension and to provide a comfortable environment based on a relationship of trust between the client and the practitioner.
