Effective treatment without medication or supplements for adrenal fatigue
Sickness is felt, but health not at all.
- Traditional Proverb
Please scroll down to see details of the adrenal fatigue recovery programs
What is Adrenal Exhaustion?
Adrenal fatigue literally means we have exhausted our adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidneys. Adrenoline and cortisol are important hormones will help us in times of emergency to act quickly to save ourselves from danger.
Unfortunately, many people are living 24/7 in a state of emergency, which means the body is pumping out stress hormones all the time. This depletes our adrenals and our whole body of precious life force energy. It is also the fertile ground for disease.
Adrenal fatigue will often lead to chronic fatigue and burnout, a state of crisis and extreme exhaustion. We can help you understand exactly what has brought you to this situation, and how you can recover your health...and life.
Adrenal Fatigue Recovery Program
We offer a number of different length adrenal fatigue recovery programs, ranging from 6 weeks (6 sessions) to 6 months (15 sessions). Each person will progress at the pace that is perfect for them, and one can always start with a shorter program and extend if necessary.
Kim works with clients at the clinic, by phone or at your place of work (for corporate wellness programs). Phone sessions are equally effective and Kim has worked successfully with clients from around the world - distance is no object to healing!
Core principles of health
There are certain core health principles health which form the foundation of the Art of Health programs including:
- Our body's natural state is health and happiness, and illness is the absence of our natural state
- Symptoms are the body's way of communicating it is not happy about something either going on in our life right now or lying unresolved from the past
- Our body is designed to self-heal if we look after ourselves properly and understand and live in accordance with the 'laws of life' and 'laws of health'
- Good health will result if we understand these laws and learn to take care of our own health
About the fatigue recovery program
During the program we will cover a certain number of modules and topics. The longer the program, the more topics and more chance you will have to practice the techniques you will be given.
Kim uses Mickel Therapy as the core modality, supported by other techniques as necessary. Each program is completely tailor-made to suit your unique needs and situation.
The first session
The first session is very important and will last between 60 and 90 minutes. During the session we take a detailed case history so that we can ascertain what is causing your symptoms.
During this session you will learn:
- why and how the body creates symptoms of adrenal fatigue
- why your body is creating tiredness and any other symptoms you may be experiencing
- what you can do to start coaching yourself back to health
Clients often leave the first session with a profound shift of understanding around the cause of their illness. At the end of the first session you will be given the first self-healing exercise to take away to practice.

Personal message from Kim
"I had chronic fatigue for over 10 years and was unable to work for much of that time. For many years I had no idea why.
As I started to seek answers and solutions, I slowly discovered there were very tangible reasons for my symptoms. I started to discover parts of me I did not know existed, and patterns and behaviours I was unaware of.
The revelation came when I understood that in large part my chronic fatigue was not a lack of energy - it was blocked energy, in particular blocked emotional energy which was blocking my physical energy.
I had no idea I was blocking my feelings! Slowly I started to understand what was really going on inside me, and as I did my energy freed up and I no longer had chronic fatigue.
Since then I have investigated chronic fatigue, adrenal exhaustion, burnout and other stress-related conditions exhaustively, and have an excellent understanding of these conditions and how and what we need to do to recover from them. I look forward to helping you too"
