Joshi Clinic Wellness Centre is open!

The Joshi Clinic Wellness Centre has officially opened its doors. Suitably hidden away below street level in a quiet residential area in the heart of Marylebone, London, it offers its select members a highly personal service in what is a private sanctuary for health, fitness and true wellbeing. 

The aim of the Wellness Centre, which boasts being the only one of its kind to be fully integrated with a clinic, London's leading hub of excellence for holistic wellbeing, is to improve members' health while educating them on how to maintain it. "The principles of care that is available within the Joshi Clinic are based on integrating different forms of medicines and so integrating different forms of therapeutic classes and exercise modalities is a natural way for us to further promote health and wellbeing" says Joshi.

Everything is approached in a prescriptive way to help members deal with the stress of modern day life, offering the perfect solution for those seeking to achieve measurable better health and fitness and a clearer understanding of the therapeutic benefits of everything that is available at the Centre.

"Our intention is to show members the true essence of many different practices and exercise techniques and how they can help improve ones health, not only from direct intervention, but also by creating an environment that is nurturing, welcoming and enjoyable" says Joshi.

The Wellness Centre has been structured to allow members to treat it as their own personal space, where he or she can arrange their own timetable and pick from a wide range of holistic services based on their individual needs and goals with the guidance of like minded practitioners.

The Centre houses a state of the art Exercise Studio for personal training with a focus on postural alignment and balance, weight loss etc, an authentic Moroccan-Indian style studio for a wide range of classes including Pilates, yoga, tai chi and meditation and a therapy room offering the ultimate in opulent pampering! Here members can indulge in a deluxe menu of treatments. These include different forms of massage, manicures, pedicures, facial acupuncture, lymphatic drainage, Endermologie cellulite treatment, as well as other beauty and body treatments designed for both men and women by Yon-Ka, the renowned French pioneer of esthetic aromatherapy and phytotherapy heralded as the haute couture of luxury skincare, as used by Madonna, Jennifer Lopez and Sienna Miller.

Attention to detail has been key in planning both the design and service at the Centre. Entirely based upon Vedic and Feng Shui principles of harmony and balance, the studio, for example, has deep red walls, crafted archways and imposing columns to create a sense of tranquility and authenticity while in the changing rooms burnt amber mosaic tiles flecked with real gold line the walls, waist-high urns overflow with orchids and Joshi's new line of Holistic Skincare products are abundant.

The first class service means members are treated to complimentary wheatgrass shots on arrival, vitamin boosts half way through their workouts, delicious freshly prepared fruit or protein smoothies as well as the option to order from the chefs freshly prepared gourmet meals designed for the individual's dietary requirements available for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Membership is available to existing patients of the Joshi Clinic and others seeking guidance towards achieving better health and fitness. Places are very limited so people who are interested in joining are encouraged to act promptly. For membership enquiries please call + 44 (0)20 7723 2444.

Overview of membership benefits:

  • Each new member will be given a consultation with Joshi to discuss their current state of health, lifestyle and diet.

Making Your New Year's Resolutions Work!

Have you ever wondered why it is that you make a decision to stop smoking,lose weight, start exercising, write the novel or the screen play you've been meaning to for the last goodness knows how long, and then 3 days, 1 month 6 weeks later, you just stop following through?

You know you are not alone. It is annoying. After all, you have a degree/degrees. You are intelligent/ hold down a responsible job/are immensely creative/run 3 households and have 5 children - all these good things. So what is happening?

Your resolutions and decision making skills are fine. It is however, your conscious mind that made those decisions, whilst your unconscious mind may have other ideas. Your conscious mind is like the tip of the iceberg that shows above the water line - while the other 9/10ths of it lies hidden under the water. It is your unconscious mind that controls your breathing, heart beat, blood pressure, all your skills that get turned over to automatic pilot, like driving, and tells your body what to do to heal itself when you cut your finger or break a bone. In terms of what drives an individual, the unconscious mind is much more powerful than the conscious mind. The trick is to get them both working together.

This is where NLP or Neuro-Linguistic Programming Counselling and Psychotherapy can be really helpful. Whilst all therapies look at what isn't working to come to a diagnosis, NLP is different in that it specifically focuses on what does work to bring about long term change. It is often possible to get results in just a few sessions using Time Line work and/or Ericksonian Hypnotherapy, which always involves using a reward system.

Milton Erickson is remembered as one of the most effective hypnotherapists of the 20th century. He realized that the unconscious mind operates like a 2-3 year old child. As any parent knows, if you want to take a toy away from a child, you had better give the child a better one - otherwise you have a major tantrum on your hands. He knew that when it comes to making any change that involves giving something up, a replacement/reward would make the whole process easier. This is so important that it can work on its own, without the hypnosis.

Another factor that is important is anchoring the new positive behaviour in your unconscious mind so that it continues through time. Healthy habits are for life, and the best side effect is that you are better able to enjoy the whole of the rest of your life. Anything that supports your health and happiness over the long term is well worth the investment of time and money. Treat yourself! You're worth it!
