Holistic healing

It’s the Cure de Camaret here!! […] It was really good to meet you and thank you so much for your excellent hospitality. I really enjoyed that short but entertaining lunch in Hoi An.  You will be pleased to learn that I did go on to meet up with Nicolas Dupaux in Ho Chi Minh and between you both my shoulder problem is cured – he diagnosed a very old “frozen shoulder”. […] We are so pleased to have met you and once again many thanks for your help, your advice and the warmth of your welcome, we will always remember it, on this our epic round the world voyage. 

To whomever visits Hoi An and gets run over by a kid on a bicycle. In March of this year, this happened to me. I am 62 years old and suffered contusions cuts and severe bruising. In severe pain and hobbling, I made my way to the offices/residence of Brigitte and Dom. They immediately dressed my wounds and administered acupuncture for the pain, which was considerable. They then set up appointments for follow-up visits and invited me to attend tai-chi and other classes during the remainder of my stay, during which they administered all of my health needs. I would recommend a visit to these folks, by anyone visiting Hoi An.

Début 2010, j’ai été victime d’une inflammation d’un nerf oculomoteur. Cette inflammation produit un effet pour le moins ennuyeux puisque la pupille de l’œil infecté double de volume. Résultat, incapacité à lire, à reconnaître sa compagne, en bref un cauchemar pour un jeune informaticien de 35 ans.

A l’hôpital, les toubibs n’ont pas su soigner mon problème malgré l’usage de tous les appareillages dont ils disposaient (scanner, IRM, etc.) ainsi qu’une ponction lombaire. Bref, je suis sorti de là avec un diagnostic mais sans aucun soin.

J’étais désemparé, incapable de bosser. Comme un con, avec ma maladie sans solution… Je me suis alors tourné vers « le grand black avec la chaussure blonde » et j’ai essayé l’acupuncture.

Au début ça fait bizarre, mais au bout de quelques jours on s’y fait même si ça fait un peu mal de temps en temps, surtout dans les pommettes ! Bref, j’ai mis deux mois à sortir de cette maladie de merde et il est fort probable que l’acupuncture ait joué un rôle très favorable dans cette guérison, mon état s’est amélioré jusqu’au complet rétablissement tout au long des séances de Dominique. Je vous encourage donc vivement à consulter nos amis les magiciens de la piqûre.

This place was great.

My girlfriend and i visited essence of health on one of the last days of a month in south east Asia. We had had a lovely time but needed some revival and energy boost before going home.

Dominique who did the massage and acupuncture for us was a very warm and welcoming person as was his partner Brigitte. Immediately we both felt very comfortable. Dominique is well trained and experienced and found him to really engage and “listen” to who we were. You can get a lot of massage in Asia where people are running through a routine. This is nice but not always penetrating to a deeper level. Essence of health really provided that extra insight.
Felt amazing afterwards. Totally recharged. So if you are looking for some healing this a great place to go.
The centre is just off the main road but has a not too obvious turn off. If you get lost just ask around a bit. Well worth making the effort.  (Tripadvisor)

I met Brigitte and Dominique during a workshop in Ho Chi Minh city. Actually the Life coach I was seeing in Ho Chi Minh city recommended them and I’m very happy I had the chance to meet them. I RE-discovered Qi Qong with them, and Dominique shown a very well understanding of it. This was impressive, and very different from what I’ve seen or tried before. I did not have the opportunity to try the many disciplines they offer or receiving a treatment, but I heard from friends that the acupuncture treatment is very efficient! (Tripadvisor)
