Niche: Alternative healthcare
As a successful oil broker in the 1990's, Kyoko Saeki worked long hours in a high-octane environment. This affected her health. She thought about oil prices as she tried to sleep resulting in frequent chronic headaches and fortnightly visits to her doctor.
Kyoko's turning point came when a friend gave her a gift of some essential oils to help sooth her anxiety and stress. Immediately, Kyoko experienced amazing results. She felt more relaxed and her headaches decreased. This sparked her initial interest in alternative medicine. She quit her high-powered career and enrolled in the Charles Stuart University in Australia. She studied alternative medicine extensively and went on to open her own practice - Healing Gardens. Almost a decade later, Kyoko feels invaluable satisfaction in making a difference in people's lives.
TF: How has Healing Gardens evolved?
KS: Through constant practice I have honed my skills to become a truly successful healthcare practitioner. I usually work with an entire family unit, starting with a child and moving on to siblings, mothers, fathers and even grandparents.
TF: Best aspect of your job?
KS: As an oil broker I was financially very well off but nursed an empty heart. Although starting Healing Gardens was financially challenging, witnessing first hand how my therapy can change someone's life gives me an abundant feeling of joy and satisfaction.
TF: How do you apply essential oils to enhance your own wellbeing?
KS: I use slimming oil daily to cleanse my internal system and then three other essential oils - according to my menstrual cycle - which balance my hormones and prevent me from experiencing symptoms of menopause. The oils increase my metabolism
and improve my immunity. Except for required check-ups, I've had no need to visit a doctor since leaving my previous career. And because I'm a living testament to the benefits of essential oils, I share my personal knowledge and experience when recommending the oils to my clients.
TF: What services do you provide?
KS: Our Lymphatic Drainage Therapy proves popular with women as it helps with internal cleansing, improves immunity, increases metabolic rate and also has anti-aging benefits. Combining Lymphatic Drainage Therapy and CranioSacral Therapy techniques we provide pre and post natal massage and treat new born to the elderly - working wonders for children with special needs.
