The NHS Healer by Angie Buxton-King

When Angie Buxton-King's young son, Sam, was diagnosed with leukaemia, he (and the family) started a long journey through the traditional medical routes, chemotherapy etc. However, Angie's training as a "healer" also came into play. As she used her skills to help Sam through his treatment, doctors were amazed at how few side effects he suffered. In this book, she tells of her journey to become a healer, Sam's journey through his illness, and, after his death, her success at persuading the NHS to employ her as a healer - she now works in the haematology unit at University College Hospital in London. The second part of the book covers case studies and practical advice and exercises for meditation and healing for the reader to learn some of the techniques themselves to enable healing and self-healing. This is a practical and inspirational manual for anyone suffering from emotional or physical pain, life-threatening illness or who is involved in caring for others.
Angie Buxton-King is the only paid healer within the NHS, as well as running her own private practice. She teaches at South Bank University, speaks to medical and cancer charities, and runs workshops at the Healing Arts Festival and other venues. There have been many articles about her work in the national, local and health media, including the Times and Daily Mail. She has also appeared on national and cable television. This is her first book.
