Kia ora,
I’m Dionne, a Certified Healing Touch Practitioner, with a home-based practice overlooking
native bush and a boulder river in the Lower Kaimai, Tauranga. I’m also a Reiki Practitioner
and Reiki Teacher.
Healing Touch can help you, by reducing stress, improving anxiety and depression,
decreasing pain, enhancing recovery from surgery and supporting cancer care.
It’s a wonderful way of working energetically with you, to help integrate your physical,
mental, emotional and spiritual aspects, in a way that is safe, holistic and professional.
I look forward to connecting with you soon.

Christchurch
0276 016 800
Growing up where the ocean meets the native forest I am inspired to listen and hear nature calling the Soul.
Based in Christchurch I have a full time clinical practice encompassing Healing Touch, Esoteric Healing, Guided Imagery, Sound Work and Mentorship. My background in Teaching has motivated me to become an Instructor of Levels 1-4 in Healing Touch, with over 24 years of experience. I’m currently on the HTNZ Committee as Instructor representative and lead the Education committee.
Maori Esoteric Healing Studies have continued to gift me the spiritual understandings of the ancient ways of honouring spirit in all things. Combined with my ancient Celtic roots, Healing Touch continues to echo these beliefs. I love to empower individuals to recognise their full potential and teach them how to access and manage their own energy on their soul’s journey at this time.
Singing with a Global Acapella group for 25 years feeds my passion for song and healing sounds. I am a Threshold singer offering peaceful harmonies and healing at bedside for palliative care patients and support for families.

I help adults and children understand mind and body wellbeing
I am an experienced Certified Healing Touch Practitioner in the field of Mind Body Health and Wellbeing. I spent five years in training, and 21 years in Practice, working with the energy of the human body. My intention is to help people clear blockages to self-healing, mentally and physically, creating harmony and balance within.
I am a Mentor, I also offer Personal Growth guidance via a simple, common sense approach, helping people to achieve clarity and awareness about what may have grown to become, very complex, overwhelming issues.
Life is about relationships. I help adults and children become aware of their emotions, and how to break down those emotions and behaviours which limit them, and influence their relationships every day.
Helping people of all ages to demystify long held beliefs and concepts which have controlled their lives, and those they seek to control, can be transforming.
Wendy Risdon
CHTIP, RN, MHSc.
Duvauchelle, Banks Peninsula

I have a home clinic in Duvauchelle and offer Healing Touch and Relaxation Massage.
For 15 years I worked as a Practice Nurse at the University of Canterbury and ran a
very popular clinic for students with Stress related issues such as Anxiety and Depression.
Anxiety is very topical at the moment with school age children and I can recommend
Healing Touch as a gentle non-invasive therapy which elicits a deep relaxation response.
